Katell Gelebart is taking eco-friendly clothing to new heights with her food packaging fashions. Katell Gelebart has created dresses, aprons, and jackets out of packets of pasta and cat food bags.
My favorite piece here has to be the packets of pasta jackets. At first glance it looks like any other jacket you'd see in stores, but a closer inspection reveals the brand name Barilla plastered all over it as well as weights and nutrition facts. Check out the gallery above to see Katell Gelebart's amazing food packaging fashion.
