NO MERE BAG LADY "Project Runway" met Sustainable Bates for the third annual "Trashion Show" — a fashion competition whose student and staff participants created apparel from materials bound for the landfill. Shown here is Sarah Dice-Goldberg '11 of Highland Park, N.J., who won the judging with her flowing, flamboyant outfit made mostly from recycled shopping bags. The event, held in the Gray Athletic Building and accompanied by Dining Services desserts, followed the annual Harvest Meal on Nov. 19.
