Austin Trash Makeover 2019
The 9th annual Texas Campaign for the Environment's Trash Makeover Challenge took place on September 14, 2019, at the Texas Federation of Women's Clubs Headquarters in Austin, Texas. The event is held each year to raise funds and bring awareness to the TCE's goal of fighting pollution. Each year artists from around the state showcase incredible designs created with materials that many would consider to be trash. All garments submitted for the competition must be made from 90% recycled materials or reconstructed textiles. This years makeover challenge theme was Sheroes and Heroes. Designers chose their favorite fictional or historical figure to portray in a totally unique way.
