Recycling

Recycling is when a designer takes already used fabrics or materials of any kind, and with them re-creates a garmend. The term ''Eco-Fashion'' is beginning to take a tole over the fashion world. This method of fabric construction has be used in some really interesting ways.


The polish Academy SAPU ( Cracow School of Art and Fashion Design) got students to create a runway show featuring pieces made only from recycled materials. I found these two designs from it espically interesting.


Gary Harvey released his collection ''Gary Harvey Creative'' which featured all recycled pieces. These pieces were amazing.
This piece was made using 10 recycled brides dresses

This was created using recycled jeans




The Dress below was made using cabbage leaves. I think this is a really cool idea.


 The below dress by Yuliya Krpyo is made intirely of newspapers. This won the metro recreation award.




The piece below is by Lebonese, Eco- Friendly designer Ziad Ghanem. All the fabrics used in this menswear garmend was purchased from second-hand stores.
