Terra Plana Worn Again 2007
"In our throw-away culture, many resources are sent to landfill which could have a long life in a different form, but how easy is it to create a completely recycled product which is really up to its new job? Mike Corbett, Head of Product Design at Worn Again, takes us through the materials used in one of the new bags in their range, to show howa it’s done."

As with all things "green" these days, "eco-fashion" is a growing industry, and, as London Fashion week draws to a close, some of the very best designers in the field showed off their creations.
A succession of pouting models pound the catwalk as dance music thumps out from speakers above and quick-fire camera flashes light the room. So far, so London Fashion Week.
But while the parade of willowy women has plenty of glitz and glamour, this, they say, is a catwalk show with a conscience.
All the clothes on display have been recycled from an array of materials including car seats, bicycle inner tubes, and firemen's trousers.
