What is an example of an upcycled accessory brand?

Cravatta by Renacnatta is a tie brand that upcycles kimonos. The kimono is a traditional Japanese dress that was once a staple of Japanese fashion. Now, it is mostly worn on special occasions, such as weddings, festivals and funerals. The brand is committed to giving old kimonos a second chance, transforming them into one-of-a-kind seven-fold ties. Seven-fold, also known as sette pieghe, is the name of the hand-sewing style that requires a meticulous manufacturing process. The fabric is folded seven times to achieve volume. You can only make one tie from one kimono as this style requires two times more fabric than a regular tie. The brand says the intricate patterns and elegant drape can elevate a suit wearer’s style.

Cravatta by Renacnatta is a sister brand to Renacnatta , which is known for its one-size-fits-all wrap skirts made with deadstock kimono and Italian silk.
