In an innovative fusion of fashion and public health, designer Gunnar Deatherage has taken a bold step to raise awareness about sexual health. Collaborating with the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, Deatherage crafted a statement-making dress entirely from expired condoms.
The project, aimed at promoting sexual health awareness, was documented in a YouTube video that quickly went viral. "I made a dress out of condoms and it’s stunning," read the caption of the video.
In the video, Deatherage transforms the condoms into floral shapes using pins and zip ties, then spray-painted them to add a touch of glamour. These embellishments were then carefully sewn onto the hem of a sleek black dress, resulting in a dress that wouldn't look out of place on the Met Gala red carpet.
Have a look:
The response to the dress has been overwhelming. People were impressed by Deatherage's talent and his commitment to raising awareness about sexual health. The project serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of safe sex practices and the ongoing fight against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
