A fashion student committed to sustainable design has been creating their own leather out of fish bio-waste.
Oscar Canavan Doyle, from Dublin, is a Second Year fashion design student at the National College of Art and Design and is passionate about creating textiles from scratch.
Oscar has spent much of the last year experimenting with fish leather - taking waste fish skins from a local fishmonger and turning them into a "waterproof, flexible textile that doesn't smell like fish".
"The fashion industry isn’t sustainable in so many ways, but as a young designer the only way I can look at things is how I'm producing and how I'm working," Oscar said.
