His incredibly vibrant dresses not only make a seriously cool statement about the nature of reusing and upcycling, but these pieces are a reflection to art too. These contemporary, high fashion dresses are ethical and aesthetically pleasing.

The designer

Gary Harvey, an eco-conscious creationist who is fascinated with the creativity that goes into making stunningly fashionable dresses has re-designed these outfits by reconstructing discarded garments and waste materials.

The inspiration

The inspiration for Gary Harvey’s recycled and other clothing are those who value the artist with in themselves. Whether it is a poet playing with words, an artist giving new meaning to white canvas or a make-up artist working with a make-up brush. He gets inspired with anyone and anyone who is creative and artistic.

The green factor

These amazing recycled dresses are made by giving new life to waste materials that would have else ended in landfills and cause harm to the environment. There is diversity in his choice of material, you would see chic dresses sopping out of materials like old laundry bags, discarded jeans, old black logo T-shirts, used nylon baseball jackets, newspaper, used trench coats, old army jackets, used Hawaiian skirts, cans, bottle tops and cardboard boxes. By upcycling these dresses, it has extended their life by another 10 to 15 years.
