ONE MAN’S TRASH, ANOTHER MAN’S TREASURE


November 21, 2023

Late this summer, the 2023 Trashion Show took place at Cisco Brewery and was hosted by Holly Finigan and Rick Gifford. The annual event, which highlights fashion designs made of salvaged and recycled materials, celebrated its sixth year. Local and celebrity models strutted the runway to music by DJ Lay Z Boy in outfits themed around various materials like chip bags, ferry tickets, vape pens, hotel towels, mini alcohol bottles and more.
