Zagora is an upcycled vintage leather flap bag reimagined with black and pink merino wool and metal accents, in collaboration with visual artist Chisara Vidale. Featuring a magnetic snap-button closure.

Working alongside Chisara, we transformed this vintage bag into one of our signature pieces of wearable art. We replaced portions of the bag with felted and stitched merino wool, backed by robust recycled cotton canvas. We made a piercing into the side of the bag with metal eyelets, accented by a hanging streak of merino wool. This inside of the bag was then relined with organic bamboo silk.

Zagora follows the theme of our Moroccan-inspired Raha collection, which explores expressions of coziness and intimacy in a warm climate. Inspired by Berber wool artistry, we transformed this vintage bag into a tactile 'comfort creature', which sits snugly under the arm.

Zagora is named from the Moroccan town near the Saharan desert, whose stone makes it turn peachy pink at sunset.

Each bag from this series is one-of-a-kind, with only five made. They're signed by Chisara, and identified by an edition number.

Upcycled in London.

Sustainability

Upcycling is one of the best solutions to combating fashion's waste problem. By definition, it's the process of adding value to something that previously held little.

Rather than sourcing virgin leather and making brand-new bags, we sought to transform existing vintage bags into something of higher value and sentiment to a consumer - a functional work of art.

The bags were lined with organic bamboo silk, and fortified with 100% recycled cotton canvas, sourced from recycled cotton shirts. All wool used is natural merino wool.

Upcycled in our East London studio.
