Egg boxes, bin bags, rope, and newspaper clippings are usually thrown in the bin and forgotten about, but some students have taken those materials and created some serious fashion.
Junk Kouture has arrived in Belfast and students from across Northern Ireland have had the opportunity to take waste materials and turn it into fashion.
The stage showcasing outfits made from old tights, egg cartons, plastic bags and many others took over Grand Central Station in the city centre.
Junk Kouture, created in Ireland, is the world's largest youth sustainable fashion competition that challenges young people between the ages of 12 to 19 to create wearable art out of 100% recyclable materials.
It teamed up with Translink for the initiative focusing on sustainable fashion and travel.
The CEO of Junk Kouture, Troy Armour, said the initiative allows young people to work with their class mates, celebrate creativity and allow children to think of resourcefulness for themselves.
