“Trash”? Definitely not! At school Duc Tri, we do not throw them away, we color them, breathe life into them and turn them into extremely cool fashion items. Plastic bags, old newspapers, raincoats... all are transformed spectacularly, each product created becomes a declaration of personality and creativity. The "Recycled Fashion" project is not just a simple lesson, but an interesting and colorful mix, where dry lessons are blown up into a "show" of fashion lovers.
Miracles from skillful hands
Coming to the stage of creativity, skillful hands have “transformed” raw materials into enchanting works of art. Each sharp cut, meticulous seam, unique material combination… all have created a symphony of creativity, where the “craziest” ideas can become reality. From seemingly lifeless pieces, costumes with a strong personal mark gradually appear, the students suddenly transform into designers with their talented hands wielding their magical scissors to create luxurious and smooth outfits.
Mix&Match class, when tradition and modernity meet
Breaking the familiar rules of clothing coordination and confidently transforming is the valuable point of the “Recycled Fashion” project. To create products that spontaneously combine many different materials but still not out of place, Duc Tri students have had a very interesting and creative mix.
From forgotten “waste”, the grey plastic bag, the old crumpled newspaper, the rough cardboard, the worn out sack… under the talented hands and soaring imagination of young designers, they have been spectacularly revived, becoming fashion works that blend traditional breath and modern rhythm. Familiar ethnic motifs are transformed by “designers” in an extremely cool style, combining “cool” fashion trends but still preserving the traditional features of the nation.
Confidently show off your personality
The music was booming, the lights were bright, and the stage became a captivating fashion show. The audience felt like they were lost in a unique fashion museum, where strange designs were displayed one after another.
From the newspaper outfit with delicate cuts, the long flowing dress made from hundreds of old calendars, the plastic bags transformed into a proud and gorgeous evening gown to the unique outfit reborn from a worn-out burlap sack that seemed useless, all made the audience burst into surprise and delight. The resounding applause combined with the bright smiles on the faces of the "little supermodels" spread positive energy, affirming the meaningful message conveyed through each step on the catwalk: "Be creative to protect the environment!".
Scrap turned into gold, a variation of creativity
Project-based learning has opened up profound lessons about the value of creativity, through which students not only develop soft skills and interdisciplinary knowledge but also have the opportunity to explore their passions and visualize their future career orientation more clearly for those interested in the fashion field.
The journey from initial idea to finished product is a symphony of collaboration, critical thinking and problem solving. Each project is a diary of memorable learning experiences. And from that magical “factory”, we realize: Is there any limit to creativity when people know how to appreciate and “breathe life” into things that are considered discarded?
