'Plastic' | Location 1

  • Olivia Walters

This editorial explores how excessive production of plastics has affected coastal lines and the environment. I focused on strong silhouettes, thought-provoking poses and experimentation with the use of recycled plastic. I was particularly inspired by stylist Robbie Spencer’s Dazed editorial. I sourced plastic sheets/covers from retail stores disposed packaging and put them together to create one big plastic sheet. The purpose of this is to show that even if clothing brands are making ethical choices within the materials and production of their items, there may still be further environmental issues occurring at store level through the method of the use and disposing of plastic packaging.
