Wastie Pastie: Waste-Led Design
Millions of ill-fitting bras & single-use silicone nipple covers are thrown away each year. As people with boobs, boobs that change shape & size, why should we rely on destructive fashion practices & harmful materials to support our chests? Why should we be ashamed of disposability? We were inspired to turn diverted organic waste into desirable wearables, leveraging trend to drive sustainable waste management.
