In recent years, due to the rapid development of the fast fashion industry, the speed of clothing renewal is getting faster and faster, so people can easily discard the clothes they don’t like and buy new ones. Although these discarded garments will be recovered by some local textile recycling factories and transported to some poor countries like Ghana for secondary sale, the development of fast fashion makes the quality of these second-hand garments unable to be guaranteed, and many poor quality garments will eventually become garbage and be burned at the seaside, causing great harm to the local environment.
Therefore, in this project, I devoted myself to finding various methods and techniques, including cutting, weaving and mixing new materials, and tried to upcycle old T-shirts. The fashion aesthetic helped me create many beautiful products in this project, and finally I photographed these beautiful products and made them into a book. I really hope that this project will attract more people to participate in upcycling clothes and help make the world a better place.
Give Fashion A Second Life-Upcycling.
Use Fashion To Combat Fashion!
Everyone can take action to make the world a better place.
