Re:Nylon

Prada has always utilized nylon as a main material. The debut of the brand's '84 collection Pocone in its line of bags and accessories was praised worldwide. Miuccia Prada expanded the collection to include nylon dresses for her own label as well as Linea Rossa, the nylon-heavy collection that buzzbeast-ready Frank Ocean recently dressed himself in at the Met Gala. Now the powerhouse Milan-based house has reimagined its iconic nylon bags, transforming them into sustainable re:Nylon fabric. The new collection features six classic styles - a belt bag (pictured) and shoulder bags (pictured) as well as a tote bag (pictured), duffle bags (pictured) and two backpacks made of recycled ECONYL fabrics that are made from recycled plastics and fishing nets.

The material that is repurposed is a result of a collaboration with Aquafil, an Italian textile yarn manufacturer that produces Econyl fabric using recycled nylon waste, which can be reused over and over again without losing its quality. It's part of a wider plan to move from virgin nylon to re:Nylon across the entire Prada portfolio in 2021, The Business of Fashion reports. The collection includes six new Re:Nylon handbags, a pair ECONYL shoes and boots, and a range apparel made from the same fabric.

The first video is a collaboration between Harry Potter actress and environmentalist Bonnie Wright and National Geographic explorer Asher Jay touring an Arizona carpet recycling facility that transforms old nylon into recycled ECONYL.
