Project ReUse - a snowy success!
Despite the winter weather this Saturday, we went forward with Project ReUse and it was a blast. Almost one hundred brave souls trudged through the snowy streets of Athens to support ReUse Industries and watch a great fashion show. We made almost $500, all of which will go toward funding ReUse Industries projects such as free pickups of reusable items, which are available in Athens and select other cities. We would like to congratulate our winners:
Sarah Warda, who won our grand prize with her beautiful blue evening dress. Here is Sarah's description of her creation:
This outfit is all about color. Originally a choir robe, the dress definitely sings its own tune. With additional materials from a floor length nighty, the subtle tone-on-tone blue hues are sure to please. Her custom handbag was made from an old pillow, creating a striking contrast. Inspired by 40's starlets, Sarah hopes to make a splash on the runway.
Rachel Aling, Kari Eavenson and Cara Varney won first runner up with their lovely Asian-inspired dress. Rachel, Kari an Cara had this to say about their look:
East meets west with this sexy kimono, formerly a night gown and dress shirt. Modeled by Rachel is a classic Asian dress with a twist. Encompassing plunging necklines and dramatic flowing sleeves creating fashion zen. Inspired by nature, this design takes industrial Japanese culture back to its traditional roots for a unique fusion of function and style.
Emily Miller, Carla Maragano and Chelsea Dieck took second runner up with their funky shift dress. Here's what Emily, Carla and Chelsea had to say about their design:
Here we have Chelsea, modeling as the "Value City Vixen". Although she looks pretty in pink, her once-drapery dress, complete with sexy slip, dyed cotton stretch leggings and pearls of a different color, she is actually ready to rock and roll through the night! This ensemble was created solely from materials collected at the ReUse $4 bag sale! Now that's a vicious deal!
