Entries to this category must be a complete outfit and be created from materials that have been previously used for another purpose.

When submitting to this category, please include a few lines about what the material was used for in its other life, before you turned it into a piece of wearable art. As it is likely that you are working with non-traditional materials for this category, please ensure that the materials are well washed and free of any residue that might cause irritation to a model’s skin. If your material of choice is abrasive or scratchy, we would strongly suggest creating some sort of undergarment to be worn with your piece. Most importantly, have fun with this category! Anything is a potential material for wearable art; the hardest part is always picking which idea to work with!
