Wearable Art

Dress and Accessories made from Rubber Flooring

 
This is my very good friend Jackie, and this outfit came from a work assignment when we worked together for an architectural firm. Jackie is an interior designer and fellow artist and entered a wearable art fashion event with outfits made only from industrial design products. We were assigned rubber flooring (lucky us), Jackie made all the accessories and I (Shelby) made the dress. Jackie modeled the outfit at the show and did great! We took the dress after the show and did a photo shoot, (cause "yes" we also have a photography business) and because the flooring manufacturer wanted the outfit to put on display in their showroom.

I can't even count how many hundreds of holes that I had to drill press through the rubber,
but I haven't used a drill press since.
