Recycle yourself - Who said recycled can't look good?

Apologies for not blogging much this summer, I was reaaally busy working on a project. Better said, my first fashion show!
I am extremely excited and really proud of what I have achieved so far and my first collection made out of recycled and unconventional materials.
Here are few of the first sketches I did for the collection - I am still waiting for my photographers to give me final pictures from the show. Until then, enjoy the sketches and one good picture from my finale girl that I managed to find on facebook from some random visitor!





The collection included outfits made out of potato sacks, handpainted by me, plastic petals made out of water bottles, newspapers, duct tape and many other unconventional materials. The goal was to create clothes that would look very wearable, and I think I achieved that very well.

Like I said, pictures of all outfits are coming as soon as I get them!
And of course I will share some pics of the atmosphere and my bow in the end.
What a feeling!
