Sandra‘s Closet My Look: C’est Trash Chic

As a fashion collector, I’m constantly searching for pieces that feel new, not just aesthetically, but conceptually. Fashion, after all, thrives on reinvention. The thrill is in discovering labels that push the conversation forward while still delivering that unmistakable sense of style.

This look from the Danish label GANNI caught my attention precisely for that reason. The crinkled taffeta is crafted from recycled polyester, a small but meaningful reminder that innovation in fashion doesn’t always have to shout; sometimes it simply slips into your wardrobe with effortless cool. GANNI has never claimed perfection, and perhaps that honesty is exactly what makes their approach feel modern. Their idea of responsibility is not a polished marketing word, but an ongoing process, one that evolves alongside the industry.

Naturally, the theme called for a playful twist. Enter my Moschino bag shaped like a roll of garbage bags, stamped with the words «C’est Trash Chic.» If fashion loves irony, then this is its perfect punchline. What could be more fitting than pairing recycled fabric with a bag that literally celebrates trash?

Recycling, but make it fashion. And maybe that’s the point: style has always had the power to transform the ordinary into something desirable, even a trash bag. Because in the end, great fashion doesn’t just recycle materials. It recycles ideas, attitudes, and humor. And when it’s done well, it looks incredibly chic.

My look: Cropped ruched bomber jacket, bow-detailed gingham crinkled-taffeta peplum blouse, gingham crinkled-taffeta miniskirt, and Kat platform boots, all by GANNI, bow-detailed red ribbon earrings by Simone Rocha, Intrecciato rectangular sunglasses in green/brown by Bottega Veneta, and cylinder clutch bag by Moschino.
