Artist Simon Honey had the concept and was the catalyst for a Recycled Fashion Show in Sutton.

On the project he engaged with over 70 young people, giving them knowledge of the environmental impact of the Fashion Industry, and inspiration / advice on garment designs. Their final designs celebrated individual creativity and the young people involved 'strutted' their stuff on the catwalk at a local night club. Helen Young (ex BBC Weather presenter), was the celebrity compere. Right: Crisp packet dress, bubble wrap cape.

Our student's really enjoyed working with Simon Honey creating recycled costumes. The individual attention they received allowed them to produce highly individual costumes and they found it very inspiring working with a visiting artist. Student's made very impressive costumes using recycled materials and enjoyed the final catwalk session, where they modeled their costumes for the rest of the group Ms Dormer, Art teacher Glenthorne High School.
