The City of Orlando is calling all local fashion designers, artists and fashionistas alike to contrive new fashionable looks from old materials that otherwise would be recycled of trashed for the second annual Trash2Trends fashion show. Each design will be featured at the Trash2Trends runway event that will be held on Saturday, Feb. 28, 2015.

Local celebrities will judge participants and choose winners from the following categories: top design, avant garde, best use of material, most wearable and audience choice. Last year's winners were featured in the local media.

Not only is this an event to showcase creative fashion, but it is also a fundraiser for Keep Orlando Beautiful, which "sets out to empower individuals to take greater responsibility for enhancing their community environment through litter prevention, waste reduction/recycling, and beautification."

But the idea of trashion isn't a new phenomenon. It is happening all around, from Brooklyn, New York to Portland, Oregon. More and more people are finding ways to make use of the things that can be found around the house, like the local actress that made a dress out of Orlando Weekly issues.
