Trash fash: Kathy Kasdan's amazing plastic bag couture

recycledplasticdresses.jpg

Fashion doesn't come trashier than this...Kathy Kasdan has been using plastic bags to make amazing fashion items for some time now, and these are a couple of amazing pieces from her latest collection. The plastic is knitted, woven and melted together to creat the outfits.

What's impressive about Kasdan's work is that she doesn't purchase any materials to make them -- all this is the result of trips to the grocery store. It goes to show just how much plastic we pick up and discard every day. There are more examples of Kasdan's plastic bad dresses here.
