Using What You Have Fashion


I saw this dress and just loved it. It has a retro 50's feel to me and the fact that it has a matching handbag and fashion hat to go with it is adorable! But look really close at it...do you see the "Dollar General" logo in the yellow patches on it? Does that mean this dress can actually be found in a Dollar General store? Of course not. But the logo is there because it was made from Dollar General (and other stores) plastic bags! Is this not the neatest thing or what!?! Now that's what I call "using what you have fashion!"

This design original is from designer Cathy Kasdan Check out her photo gallery with more great "Knit Plastic" attire.

I love the 50's style, wonder how the plastic holds up if it is worn?
