5 Gyres is in Bend, Oregon for the week with our "Waste to Waves" exhibit at the community college.  After a brief talk in the lecture hall, I met Sara Weiner, founder of Sara Bella.  Her message of UPCYCLING OUR TRASH is preceded by DON'T MAKE IT IN THE FIRST PLACE!  She makes the coolest fashionable and functional gear from laminated plastic film of all types.  I would wear this!  Check out her site sarabella.com and the video below.
