At this event, local designers, models, and stylists are invited to create a look made of at least 90% recycled materials. This year’s theme “Living Masterpiece” prompted designers to create looks inspired by their favorite piece of art and to use everything from placemats to pads to create their outfit. Team Dots won with an outfit inspired by French painter George Seurat’s “A Sunday on the Island of La Grande Jatte.”
