New York based costume designer Kate Cusack makes really amazing costumes out of unexpected items: above, plastic wrap, sponges and a picnic set. These costumes are called Sculptural/Wearable and in the vein of haute couture –> pret a porter, they’re really vibrant templates for a host of new ideas for re-purposed clothing. We wouldn’t necessarily wear the wedding gown made of plastic wrap, but it’s exquisite in its own right. And while the items aren’t officially designated as recycled, these are blueprints for future design innovation. Please have a look at this creative talent.
