Local artists are transforming unconventional materials into upcycled couture, and their designs will be presented at the Orlando Science Center for the 11th annual Trash 2 Trends fashion show.
The event highlights handmade garments crafted from discarded and recycled materials in the Science Center’s Dino Digs wing. Alongside the eco-conscious runway, the show features dinner catered by 4 Rivers Smokehouse. Hosted by Keep Orlando Beautiful, the event proceeds from ticket sales will be used to support litter clean-ups, education programs and recycling collection events across the city.
Trash 2 Trends counters the ever-accelerating trend cycle, complete with overflowing landfills of discarded garments and sundry fast fashion. The event highlights Orlando-based designers with a passion for challenging the norms of capitalist consumption.
6 p.m. Wednesday, May 6, Orlando Science Center, 777 E. Princeton St., osc.org, $53.
