Trash to Fashion Awards New Zealand
Trash to fashion is not a new concept, but might be just a little out there for most. TreeHugger has touched on trash fashion before in the story on Trashin' Fashion and Trashion. Personally I love the inventiveness of anybody willing to turn old trash into wearable art which is what most of these creations are. But ... Who is doing it? And why?
Haute Trash is a troupe of artists and designers who produce runway fashion shows and other performance art featuring haute couture made from society's trash, they create fashion out of trash in order to entertain, educate and empower others to rethink, reuse and recycle. They are appearing at Burning Man's Green Open House on 14 April and Sierra College Earth Day Celebration on 19 April.
