Theme Thursday: Earth Day Fashion Show

The planet: Earth.

The year: 2222.

Our Earth has become so littered with trash that all factories have shut down, making it impossible for new clothes to be made.

Their mission: Create a piece of clothing (or whole outfit) using only recycled materials.

Result: The Earth Day Fashion Show
















































Apologies for the sorry blurryness of some of these photos. I have a whole new appreciation now for runway photographers!

    Love it, Jen! So much creativity, and the "runway models" looked like they were having a great time. I loved a lot of them, but my fave was the top hat. Whoa! Willy Wonka, eat your heart out!

    What a wonderful and creative project. Makes me want to design recycled coutre. I have an early 60's photo of my brother in a costume similar to the first one. Loved the soda bottle hat. Fun.

    That was tons of fun. I took some notes in case we end up there in a few weeks. Those kids were smart about putting outfits together.
