We have been using the upcycling method since 2008, which is why the pieces made in this way are now a permanent fixture at Printa, this collection named UNIQUE . We like the method so much because it increases value. It is quite simply the rebirth of materials considered waste: we use these textiles to create a completely new garment or accessory using the patchwork technique. A real metamorphosis when an old leather jacket becomes a stylish bag in the Printa workshop, or men's shirts become women's skirts. The range of possibilities is endless, so we always come up with something new from time to time. This is an ongoing love project of ours, so we thought we'd present our 5 UNIQUE favorites.
You can vary the dress that can be tied with UNIQUE recycled sleeves to your liking and style: it can be adjusted to your figure in both the front and the back. Whatever you choose, it accentuates your waist nicely and gives an extra twist to an otherwise simple outfit. 11 different variations are available, so you will definitely find the one that suits you.
There is no other dress from Printa that evokes the cottagecore style so authentically! With its romantic details, loose fit and dynamic lines, the UNIQUE recycled ruffled dress is unmissable. You can even wear it with white sneakers, so you don't have to give it up even on busy weekdays.
The blankets of the old pioneer camps certainly did not expect that after tents and wooden houses, they would continue to live in wardrobes. When Zita found the colorful blankets at a place selling antiques in the summer, she couldn't resist them, and the blanket jacket idea was born immediately. This piece will definitely not come across you on the street, as it is produced in limited numbers, no two pieces are the same.
The UNIQUE recycled trapeze blouse is a patchwork combination of navy and dark green shades. These colors create a beautiful, deep color palette. You will love it every day, as you can wear it with anything, and the soft fit of the blouse looks great on all shapes and is extremely comfortable.
From a leather jacket to a bag? Well, the upcycling technique is limitless, that's why we gave old but perfect leather jackets a new chance: this is how the UNIQUE recycled large leather backpack , which can also be worn as a shoulder bag, was born. We designed it for everyday use, but it is especially durable, so you can take it with you on a hike. We are so sure of this that we offer a lifetime warranty. Available in four shades that vary subtly in style.
