Students at the Sheffield Hallam University in England have created biodegradable wedding dresses, currently on display at the campus museum. The dresses dissolve in water, creating five separate pieces you can wear after the wedding day!

Professor Jane Blohm assigned the project to her fashion students to examine eco-friendly alternatives in clothing design. She shared, “In order to reduce fashion’s impact on the environment, the fashion industry must begin to challenge conventional attitudes and practices. The exhibition demonstrates what could be possible when design and scientific innovation combine forces.”

It’s a great idea, but imagine if you got caught in the rain!

Looking stunning in your wedding dress is just as important as anything to you ensuring your wedding day is exactly what you dreamed of. And doing it in a “green” way is becoming easier and more readily available. There are 3 main ways to have a green wedding dress:

1) Buy a dress made from sustainable materials such as Hemp. (MyCorset, Thread Head Creations)

2) Reuse a wedding dress. (TheFROCK, Posh Girl)

3) Make your own wedding dress choosing environmentally friendly fabrics. (Near Sea Naturals, Silk Road)
