FASHION JUNQUI: Ripley’s Believe It or Not Trash Fashion Show

One person’s trash is truly another person’s treasure.

In St. Augustine, Florida,  Ripley’s Believe It or Not Museum held a fashion show  where the contestants had to use certain materials to produce their creations. No, i’m not talking cotton, spandex and rayon ; more like magazines, grocery bags and trading cards…you know, the usual.

What’s even more impressive is that the three winners were between 12 and 18 years old.

Recyclable fashion. I can get definitely get down with that.
