Fashion meets sustainability this month in a way that’s anything but traditional. Galleria Dallas is set to host the TRASHion exhibit, a showcase of fashion created entirely from repurposed materials, running May 4 through May 28, 2026.

The installation is part of a continued partnership with HKS, bringing a mix of design, art and environmental awareness into the retail space.

Where Fashion And Sustainability Meet

The TRASHion Show is built around a simple but creative challenge: designers must create garments using materials that are at least 90% reused or repurposed.

The result is a collection of one-of-a-kind pieces made from unexpected materials, everything from soda cans to experimental, home-grown textiles, all reimagined into wearable designs.

This year’s theme, “Avant-Camp,” blends avant-garde experimentation with theatrical expression, pushing designers to explore bold, unconventional ideas while reflecting on sustainability and environmental impact.

Eight standout designs will be on display in a window installation on Level 1, near The Westin Galleria Dallas.

In addition to the garments themselves, visitors can explore panels showcasing the materials used in the designs, offering a closer look at how everyday waste can be transformed into something entirely new. The display extends into the corridor between the hotel and nearby retail spaces, creating an immersive experience for shoppers.

A Broader Focus On Sustainability

The exhibit is part of Galleria Dallas’ ongoing sustainability efforts, which range from recycling programs to landscape design using native Texas plants that require less water. Hosting TRASHion aligns with both environmental goals and the center’s Artist Collective program, which highlights local creatives and community-driven projects.

The TRASHion exhibit is free to attend and will be on display from May 4 through May 28 at Galleria Dallas, located at 13350 Dallas Parkway.
