Images from Rubbish to Runway Fundraiser

Here are a couple pictures I took before the Rubbish to Runway Fashion show and during rehearsal. Thank you to all of you that came!

Megan Leone recycled garment for Rubbish to Runway fundraiserMegan Leone and model wearing her recycled garment for Rubbish to Runway

The blouse is made from an old pair of knit pants. I flipped the pants and cut open the inseam for the neckline. I then used all the access length to create the drapey neckline and sleeves. The skirt is several layers of Women’s Wear Daily newspaper that I sewed together on a diagonal and then slashed to create a chenille effect. The necklace is from my current jewelry collection which is made from re-purposed chain, car parts, recycled leather and a raw gemstones.
