The designer
The fabulous piece of eco-friendly fashion is the brainchild of Amit Ayalon. An aspiring fashion and costume designer, Amit has graduated from the Australian Institute of Creative Design and has won the Most Outstanding Student of the Year award. Her couture design collection, titled as "Becoming Silhouettes by Amit Ayalon" has recently released its first collection called The Neverland Collection.
The inspiration
The warm color palate of reds, browns and gold and the dreamy feel of the garments shows Amit’s inspiration coming from the world of fantasy movies like Alice in Wonderland, Moulin Rouge, Lord of the Rings and Avatar, to name a few.
The green factor
Envirosax bags are renowned for their high quality and beauty of the unique prints, so this dress naturally inherits the "green genes" of the bags like durability, biodegradable, non-polluting, etc. Envirosax is a cool alternative to plastic bags, which cause irreparable damage to our planet. Hence, this couture line does its bit to save the Earth… that too in style!
The fab factor
Besides taking the big leap in the eco-friendly fashion industry, the Envirosax Reusable Bag Dress also takes care of your style and fashion concerns. While the colors are bright and funky, the prints and patterns coming from the Envirosax bags are striking enough for a lasting impression. From floral prints to Japanese and Bohemian motifs, the dress is a true ramp scorcher.
The ensemble
The chic collection made of lightweight yet durable polyester consists of a cool jacket, stunning Victorian corset, back scroll piece, sexy bustle and skirt.
