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.
