Fashion designers are helping the planet by….
making Earth-friendly clothes and shoes.
An Achieve 3000 article states that Jillian Silverman designed a shoe made from chicken feathers, cloth, and mushroom roots.
The chicken materials and cloth were bits of waste.
Once the shoe gets worn out, it can be composted.
Silverman used materials in her shoe that would have been wasted otherwise. All the materials were natural, which means they can be composted once the shoe is worn out. No part of this shoe will end up in a landfill.
