Truckee High Trashion Show
Happy almost New Years Eve! It’s the one night per year that everybody stays up too late and gets together with friends. Whether your in the middle of the action in NYC watching the ball drop or snuggled up on the couch, New Years Eve is also about looking your best. Bring on the glitter, people! And what better way to look your best than to do so in recycled fashions?
ACE Actions Teams are all about innovative and awesome ideas, which is why four different Action Teams in four totally different regions all strutted their stuff on four different stages in four different eco-fashion shows.
Just in case you missed that last paragraph: there were FOUR different eco-fashion shows in 2011! What exactly is an eco-fashion show, you may be wondering? Well, it’s a fashion show where they clothes are made out of recycled materials and designed by Action Team members. Materials have included zippers, old ties, recycled newspapers, caution tape, the list goes on and on.
Check out this video from Truckee High School’s Envirolution Action Team explaining why they love eco-fashion shows:
