Trash n' Fashion

This year we had a very special event - The Second Annual Trash n' Fashion Runway Show and FUN(d)Raiser. With grateful hearts and delighted spirits, we celebrated the talents of many Appalachian State University students with a runway show that was AWESOME!!!! This year's intern, Emilie Young, was the head coordinator of this event. Read more for her words about what this event meant to her.

Coming soon...The Trash n' Fashion video created by beloved videographer, Suzanne Clouzeau.

As a sophomore student at Appalachian State University, my work with Elkland Art Center personally resonates with me, as an inspiring source of community and a creative outlet. I first began working with Elkland Art Center one year ago, as a designer and model in the First Annual Elkland Art Center Trash N’ Fashion Show. This year I have been honored to work more closely with Elkland Art Center, through Appalachian State University.

The Second Annual Trash N’ Fashion Show (2011) was as an endeavor to bond Elkland Art Center and the student community of Boone through creative reuse. Twelve ASU students worked diligently throughout the academic semester, to build original “trash couture” garments, inspired by local materials and waste.
