Trashy Fashion Show

In recognition of America Recycles Day, the Solid Waste Agency of Northern Cook County (SWANCC) presents its fourth Trashy Fashion Show. Over 60 designers created over 30 outfits and accessories using recycled materials like newspapers, textiles, magazines, candy wrappers, dryer sheets, pool rafts and much more. These are high quality, wearable outfits that make a statement about being resourceful and respectful.

There will be a raffle before the show and all proceeds will go to Share Your Soles, a partner of SWANCC, for gently used shoes. The winner must be present.

This show is free but reservations are required and space is limited. Make a reservation by emailing info@swancc.org or call 847-724-9205, ext. 201.
