Recycled Shipping Material Bags

'Re: Express Plastic to Bag' Features Haute, Upcycled Styles

— July 7, 2022 — Eco
The 'Re: Express Plastic to Bag' bags have been created as a series of recycled fashion products perfect for those with a penchant for high-end fashion with an eco-friendly edge.

The bags are achieved using plastic packaging that has been cut down, melded together and formed into strips of leather-like material. The bags thus maintain a somewhat chaotic appearance that's surprisingly stylish for even the most discerning fashion-forward consumer to appreciate.

The 'Re: Express Plastic to Bag' bag project is the design work of Yang Hongjun, Song Jiajia, Su Yunpei, Xiao Kaixu and Lan Cuiqin. The products identify how waste materials could be used in a bid to create fashion products rather than relying on virgin materials for a more stainable approach to style.
