INDESTRUCTIBLE
In response to the ubiquitous single use plastic bag and it's long term affect on our environment, Indestructible reimagines sustainable fashion.
Who knew that plastic bags and thin packing material could become a feathery 13' circle skirt.
Heat fusing a variety of plastic bags and packaging created a textile which was cut into strips, stitch together to create the bodice.
Completing the look is a shoulder piece with wings draping down the back.
