Student Award Winner Irena Rojs' (Un)Useful clothes collection (2012) takes leftovers from the fashion and textile industry and refashions them into one-of-a kind wearables. Her project was created under the guidance of her tutor Metka Vrhunc at the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Engineering in Ljubljana. The designer's work with Stella McCartney inspired her to create a collection that addresses waste-minimizing technologies as well as sustainable fashion designs for business women who want more options that utilize recycled textiles and fabrics.
