This fine garment, recycled from old shower curtains, was designed by Jane Bowler, a textiles graduate from the Royal College of Art. It's on show during the London Design Festival as part of Sustain, an art and design exhibition at the college featuring pieces by staff and students, one of several shows being put on by the RCA. 

Issues of sustainability are unavoidably part of today's design thinking; it's nice to see them being tackled in such a joyful way. Look out too for the Royal Academy of Engineering's strand on how to design engineer sustainability in London. Check out these and other sustainability events taking place during LDF10.
