Fashion from recycled clothes - Arfur (Iceland)

I was struck by these pics...indeed...I think they are so beautiful...the clothes are by Aftur, an Icelandic brand  established in 1999 which makes fashion from recycled clothing.
Aftur operates in Reykjavik, Iceland and maybe this is one of the many reasons why I love it sooo much. http://www.aftur.is/about/

Fish skin and Iceland

 

 

 

I am not a big fan of leather... but I was really struck by the beautiful objects - made of salmon, cod, wolffish skins-  I saw in Iceland over the past week end... there are many artisans over there who can work fish skin making bags, shoes, bracelets, almost everything you can think of.

Huld is a nice brand..but surfing on the iternet I have realized there are many other brands who do amazing things out of fish skins...

So, let s go fishing (or maybe shopping - which is much easier :)
