African American Artist You May Not Know #3



Catherine Edouard Charlot demonstrates that skill with her collection, HIMANE. The designs feature cocktail dresses, tote bags and pet clothes made from umbrella material and other recycled fabrics. She has even made a wedding dress using fifteen white umbrellas. Transforming fashion is not the only goal of Charlot. Her mission is also to change the way we live by making us more responsible for our environment with a greater understanding and appreciation of the power of recycling/upcycling.
