Personally, I feel that trash belongs in the garbage, not on the human body, and I prefer natural fibers to electrical wire and cassette tapes. Oh, and nails are a definite "no-no!"

“...200 hours to cut and paste and sew it.”

Will she have to spend any carbon credits for this waste of energy? Lol...

Useless, impractical...But well-intentioned, and therefore admirable.

Whut-ever.

She must be a descendant of PT Barnum.

I bet this poor, deluded artsy-craftsy do-gooder thinks this is something new. It ain’t.

Waitakere City, NZ (where I live) has been running a “Trash-to-Fashion” pageant every year since... well since just after Noah landed his Ark. As long as I can remember, anyrate. Haute couture made from garbage, worn by models, displayed on a runway, judged, and (sometimes) bought for big bucks...

She is therefore passe, old news, last year’s style.

There was a time when this was considered comedy, rather than haute couture.

This was a plot line in the movie “Zoolander.” A fashion line based on what the homeless wore called “Dereliqted.”

You can’t dress trashy till you spend a lot of money.

At left, a close-up of the 1930s-style red evening gown from the previous slide. The dress is made from upholstery fabric and 12,000 glued-on pieces of crushed glass. The dress occasionally sheds, so it might be smart to bring Band-Aids on a night out.

"I've never been injured," she said. But she sees her dresses more as wearable sculptures than utilitarian clothing. "You can't sit down in any of them, really," Ms. Judd explained.


Forget slow dancing!

I think she looks like a fun person, if you can get past all that eco save-the-earth BS. Her stuff, even from her own description, isn’t really wearable - one of her dresses she said could double “as a sweat lodge.” I can’t imagine a better use for Obama stickers etc. than the trash bin!

That said, I sure wouldn’t want to live anywhere near her. Can you imagine what her garage looks/smells like?

I wonder what the carbon footprint is of someone who spends a month making a dress?

I’d bet it is MORE harmful to the climate than it is helpful. But hey, she did save 1 square centimeter of space in a landfill somewhere.

Her designs are very creative, although more art than apparel. Kitschy and fun, clever and resourceful, but certainly not doable on a large scale. In the time it took to make just one outfit, she could have sheared a sheep, carded the wool, spun the thread and woven the fabric to make it out of durable, wrinkle-proof, fireproof wool. Instead, the person who buys her weird nail or glass or sharp aluminum-scaled garment will find that it falls apart after one wearing. Even worse, no one wants to hug them.
