Stella McCartney Introduces Innovative Bag Made from Banana Plants

Renowned British fashion designer Stella McCartney continues to push the boundaries of sustainable fashion with the launch of its revolutionary bag crafted from Bananatex, a natural, waterproof, and circular fabric derived from banana plants.

As part of the Stella McCartney autumn/winter 2023 collection, the vegan logo tote showcases the brand's iconic Fungi Forest toile de Jouy print in a rich burgundy hue. The intricate design is woven onto the Bananatex base using thread made from post-consumer recycled polyester.

Bananatex, a Cradle to Cradle Gold-certified fabric, is sourced from Abacá banana plants cultivated in the Philippines. These plants are self-sustaining, requiring no pesticides or fertilizers. Abundant in the local ecosystem, each plant yields multiple stalks that can be harvested annually, regenerating fully within a year. During their growth, these plants nourish the surrounding biodiversity.

The Abacá plant stalks possess exceptional tensile strength and durability, which are transformed into a luxurious, high-quality, cotton-like canvas by Stella McCartney. Moreover, after harvest, the plant leaves naturally decompose, creating an all-natural fertilizer, and the Abacá plant contributes positively to reforestation in previously monocultural palm areas in the Philippines.

The Bananatex fabric can be further processed into pulp and transformed into paper, which can then be transformed back into yarn.

Hannes Schoenegger, co-founder and CEO of Bananatex, expressed, "Stella McCartney has always been at the forefront of animal rights and environmentalism in the fashion industry. This collaboration with our fully circular textiles marks a significant milestone in Bananatex's history. Our goal is to contribute to positive change, and we are excited about the future developments ahead."

The Stella logo Fungi Forest Toile de Jouy tote bag is available for £1,350 and can be purchased from Stella McCartney boutiques and online platforms.
