Aim

I created six different design concepts for six different garments that portrayed a theme of re-use. I found it important to incorporate my specific interests of sustainability through the idea of user interaction and of sentimental attachment.

Laddered Tights plus thrift tips, equals fantastic new dusters!

Lucky Pants... can cheap clothing be re-labelled in order to make it more desirable?

Patterned Dress..can this discarded dress be made into something else?
