The first time I hear about recycling fashion I was skeptical, but if plastic water bottles can turn into carpets and clothing, then why not? What would it be like to work on that kind of conveyor belt-receiving old, used, or unwanted clothes, accessories, and ehemm “toys” that can be sold or recreated to be a hot item?

“I’ve got my jacket that I’ve salvaged from the conveyor belt and we are on our way t the design studio to get some tips from the experts to find out about how to customize out clothes and how to basically breathe new life into ruined broken stained old clothes.”

“Leather is the best, it’s the nicest thing to play with…it’s more versatile than other things (when it comes to creating new and desirable fashion).”

Look at the bed sheet lining that was turned into a “frock,” as the English say, with a nautical theme and feminine style! I would like a lesson too!
