Design Bitch

In the spirit of LA Fashion Week (that starts this Friday) and eco-friendly design, I present to you Gary Harvey. He is a London-based eco-couture designer who unveiled his first collection at the 07 London Fashion Week. The concept behind the 9 dresses presented at the show is to promote fashion design with a conscience and reinvent the perception of recycled clothing. Gary finds second-hand garments in thrift stores and infuses them with a new life and a statement. I impatiently await his next collection.

Newspaper Dress, made from 30 copies of the ‘Financial Times’.

Denim Dress, made from 42 pairs of Levi’s 501 jeans.

Laundry Bag Dress, made from 21 laundry bags
