Old rail uniforms get new life on a Brazil catwalk

STORY: These models are wearing dresses, skirts and

blouses made from old railway company uniforms

The outfits were designed by students in Brazil

in partnership with Rio Sem LGBTIfobia

The aim was to promote environmental

awareness and sustainability

(Marcelo Vilarino, Local)

"Creating new pieces from clothes that would have no use and would be discarded is fantastic. Fantastic to give these pieces a new life and recreate new outfits."

The fashion show was held at

Rio de Janeiro's central train station
