Behind the Seams: theKANG

♻️PLASTIC CAN BE FANTASTIC!👜 Kang is the founder of theKANG, a Singapore-based upcycling fashion label transforming plastic waste into wearable art and accessories. As a new designer, Kang didn’t have a lot of money to spend on raw materials, which forced him to look for more creative solutions. 💡That’s how he got started looking at older, unwanted things as the foundation of his designs. He soon realised the potential of plastic to create gorgeous, memorable textures for bags, earrings and more! Eschewing mass produced design, Kang has found his niche in creating soulful, wearable designs in an innovative, circular way. This is part 3 of a video series called Behind the Seams, spotlighting local makers here in Singapore who practice sustainability and ethics in their own unique ways.
