Unconventional Material Designs for F.A.S.T. "Sustainability" Fashion Show

Selected designs from a collection that explored the sustainability of fashion through unconventional and recycled materials.
This bubble dress was inspired by the reflectivity of solar panels. The circular discs used in the front panel were faulty silicon wafers discarded from a facility that fabricated microelectronics.
A close-up view of the silicon wafers which were hand-sewn onto the bodice.
This ultra-lightweight gown incorporated cutout panels from grocery bags for the ruffles (skirt) and a thick trash bag (bodice).
