Rose-Petal Sylk Rose-petal-sylk dress by Collina Strada. “By making fabrics from trash and from plastic water bottles and things like this, we can start using resources that already exist in the world to create fabrics.” —Hillary Taymour, Collina Strada Photo: New York Magazine How it feels: Soft and slippery, very much like silk.
Pineapple Leather Piñatex purse by Kate Spade. “There’s a customer who is going to … be attracted to the metallic material. But I think you’ll have someone out there who would care about sustainability. I like the appeal to both.” —Nicola Glass Photo: New York Magazine How it feels: It has a distinct wrinkled texture but is smooth to the touch. It’s pliable, like animal leather, and does not stretch or give.
