T-Shirt-Made Undies

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Jess Swider Creates the Fashionable Slippery Slope Bloomer

— April 27, 2012 — Fashion
Jess Swider created these t-shirt undies for the sake of the environment and the comfort of women everywhere.

The result is a set of adorable, high-waisted and extremely comfortable-looking fundies. Slippery Slope designs one-of-a-piece items with prints from brands, movies or events. The bloomers are an excellent addition to the Etsy shop's offerings, falling right in line with other products. You can even send in your favorite t-shirt to be made into underwear, extending its lifespan and recycling simultaneously.

Next to the t-shirt undies, Swider also creates Audubon undies in lovely designs and romantic high-waisted bikinis with pockets made out of bed sheets and pillow cases. Ultimately, these pieces are the perfect combination of resourcefulness and customization.
