-Beyond Couture...From Discard to Design
Opening Wednesday, November 29, 2023


In conceiving the plastic, transparent jacket, my design objective was to seamlessly fuse elements of progressive fashion with innovation, creating a garment that not only captivates the eye but also serves as a powerful medium for raising awareness about the pervasive issue of plastic waste.

By skillfully utilizing discarded plastic candy bags, zipper bags, and bubble wrappers, I aimed to redefine the boundaries of sustainable fashion through an eco-conscious lens. The transparency of the jacket metaphorically exposes the environmental transparency we often overlook, prompting a reevaluation of our collective responsibility towards sustainable living.

This unconventional design seeks to transcend traditional fashion paradigms, prompting a visual dialogue that encourages viewers to reconsider the environmental impact of their choices and, ultimately, champion a more sustainable future in the realm of design.

Maximize the garment's impact as a conversation starter to raise awareness about plastic waste and inspire action within communities!
