We all know recycling is a good thing, but guaranteed most of us do not take things to this kind of level. Designer Marion Macedo has created a 12-dress collection completely made of trash, knitted together with giant needles. And the results aren’t all smelly –  there are actually some really interesting pieces that are gaining tons of popularity in Bolivia where she lives and works. Her line of jewelry has even sold out. Click for the video to see how she spins garbage into garment gold.

 

Story by Amanda Gabriele

I stole my first pair of platforms from the Spice Bus in 1997 when Anglophilia was all the rage. Collector of vintage bags, vinyl and kitchen appliances. My dream of becoming a butcher is momentarily on hiatus so I can teach you how to wear muumuus and apply false eyelashes. Follow me on Twitter @CrystlMeatballs.
