Eco Factor: Beautiful floral dress devised from recycled bicycle inner tubes and wool.
This stunningly incredible dress designed for the Amsterdam Centre for Architecture (ARCAM) is a result of creative teamwork of fashion designer Mattijs van Bergen and landscape architect Anouk Vogel. And just in case if you are thinking that the new cut or adjusted seams make the collection stand out, then let me tell you, you are absolutely wrong. It is the ever-changing floral arrangements and recycled material that is its selling point.
The beautiful “Living” Flower Dress is made from recycled bicycle inner tubes and wool. The smocking-like surface of the dress is the result of myriad individual “vases” that can be filled with water. The appearance of the dress depends completely on the type of flowers used and their positioning. If you are not in the mood to go all flowery, you could wear the frock on its own to flaunt the female curves perfectly. The beautiful floral dress will be exhibited as part at ARCAM in Amsterdam through September 11, 2010.
