Can we transform the ordinary, everyday material to something special and spectacular?

The idea of having a biodegradable material connected with the thought of seeing a lot of garments that are meant for one event only. A thought of creating a garment for single use only, from a single use material.

During the process light fabric transforms from a slimy membrane-like substance to almost paper-like material with different properties in every stage.
