This survivalist fashion line is designed to help Syrian refugees

The Syrian civil war - now entering its fifth year - forced over one million migrants to seek asylum in Europe in 2015, and the refugees' clandestine trips across the Mediterranean claimed over 3,700 lives last year, according to the International Organization for Migration.

Those who do make it are left stateless, homeless and exposed to the elements while applying for asylum.

To help those refugees, Angela Luna, a 22-year-old fashion design student at Parsons, designed a clothing line that combines runway-style fashion with the utilitarianism commonly found in hiking and survival gear. The clothes are durable and waterproof, and most pieces are designed to have multiple functions - many can turn into tents, sleeping bags or flotation devices.

Luna hopes to use the revenue earned from selling the line to fund donations of the clothes to asylum-seekers. She told Tech Insider in an email that her clothing company, called Adiff, is in talks with the International Rescue Committee about how to distribute the items to refugees.

Take a look at some of the pieces below.
