The Denim Legacy

Authors: Bertha Ann Jenkins (Florida State University) , Catherine Black (Florida State University)

Abstract

The goal of this project was to design a fun wearable coat ensemble utilizing recycled denim jeans and overalls. Recycling is cost effective designing that allows students to use resources readily at hand. The recycled denim garments used in the new design were worn by family members over the past 13 years.
