Worn Again Virgin from Virgin Atlantic seat cover to eco it bag

Virgin Atlantic is working with footwear and accessories company Worn Again on an innovative new project – which will see the airline recycling aircraft seat covers to create desirable new fashion accessories. The collaboration has contributed to Worn Again developing a range of unique bags by recycling disused materials such as car seat belts, bicycle tyres and aircraft seat covers. The Worn Again Virgin range, which includes the ‘Ollie’ wash bag, the ‘Sherman’ male messenger bag, ‘Lydia’ and ‘Romero’ ladies handbags are available to buy from 1 September 2008. The bags include an ‘Ingredients’ label which lists the all the materials that make up the bags – such as Virgin Atlantic seat covers, car safety belts, Glastonbury tents and bicycle tyres. Worn Again Virgin bags will be available at Terra Plana stores around the world and on the Worn Again website (www.wornagain.co.uk). The bags will also be available in John Lewis stores as well as stores in Romania, Israel and The Philippines.
