Junk to Funk Recycled Fashion Show Contest is an annual Elysium Events production created to showcase wearable art based on the creative use of "trash." These pieces of wearable art and fashion are based upon found objects, recycled materials, and items that would typically be sent to the landfill.

Each year submissions for entry are encouraged by professional artists, fashion/apparel designers and the creative public to be featured on the fashion show runway. Selected artists compete on the runway for cash prizes based on the percentage of recycled material, creativity, craftsmanship and fit. The event encourages recycling, creative reuse, and sustainable fashion solutions in an eclectic, inspiring and humorous production.
Junk to Funk is pleased to support and work in collaboration with Orlo, a Portland based non-profit organization that uses creative arts to explore environmental issues. A percentage of event profits are donated to this progressive organization.
