What is a trashion show?
Trash + Fashion = Trashion
A Trashion Show merges art and sustainability by showcasing diverse art forms created entirely from recycled, upcycled, or repurposed materials.
The runway will present stunning and often thought-provoking pieces made of discarded and unconventional items.
The event provides a space to appreciate peer-designed art alongside intriguing food and good friends, and to think deeply about the potential for sustainable design solutions.
It's like the Met Gala, but for people who like the environment.
eat delicious home-grown food
Watermelon Rind Bhaji is one of the best, tastiest ways to repurpose watermelon rinds. At the Trashion Show, help make or eat delicious food out of the things you normally throw away.
enjoy upcycled outfits
One of GREEN's very own members created a dress from newspaper, and you can too! Get involved in designing or creating clothing that will be shown on the runway, or come watch as others model innovation designs.
observe sustainable space design
This chandelier is constructed of materials that were washed up by tides, now given new life. If you're interested in building furniture or decorations for the event, or if you have something already that you'd like to contribute, let us know!
