this year, indie magazine, VivaLaModa, shared the results of a great contest in sustainable fashion, called Project Reconstruction. for the project, 12 independent designers created a piece of clothing constructed from a men’s shirt. the results were everything from a dress to pants. the winning design was this super-cute romper:
the remaining designs are now available on eBay for auction for a really great purpose. all proceeds will be donated to CARE – Emergency in Haiti, an organization that plans to stay in Haiti until 2015 to help rebuild homes, hospitals, etc.
so to purchase a one-of-a-kind design and help support a great cause in Haiti, bid for one of these items here now!

Wow! This sounds like a totally cool idea, to create a design out of a men’s shirt. (i’ll have to try it sometime with one of my Dad’s old ones). The other designs are awesome, and it’s great the proceeds go to charity! Thanks for the update!
i know – very cool. and i love how everyone interpreted it very differently in the designs.
