Stella McCartney is consciously crafting fashion history by introducing the Frayme Mylo™ – the world’s first-ever luxury bag crafted from mycelium, a root-like structure of a fungus consisting of a mass of branching, thread-like hyphae. This pioneering vegan alternative to animal leather is grown in a lab using renewable resources by the House’s long-term partners, Bolt.
This is your chance to own a piece of fashion history, with a limited and numbered run of 100 available globally. Each is handcrafted by Italian artisans from Mylo™ – an innovative and incredibly realistic vegan alternative to animal leather. The Frayme Mylo™ is instantly recognisable as a Stella icon, with an exaggerated chain made from recyclable aluminium.

Deriving its name from the Latin term for «sense and emotion,» RATIO ET MOTUS only launched in 2018, yet New York-based Angela Wang and Daniel Li, the creative minds behind the brand, are already making waves with their cult pieces. Their classic and artful handbags immediately caught the attention of NET-A-PORTER’s fashion buyers who support the label as part of their Vanguard initiative, that is promoting new and rising talent in the industry.
The brand aims to produce products with considered design details utilizing Italian craftsmanship all while keeping longevity in mind. Being sustainable is important to them, therefore the duo only source leather from local Italian tanneries with a mission of low carbon footprint, minimum toxic wastage, low water consumption and ethical supply chain. All leathers used in the collections are by-products from the meat industry and the water repellent lining is made of vegan leather.
Look out for the unique «Disco» bag, which has modern details like specific slots for iPhones …
… or opt for my favorite, the «Twin Frame» leather tote. I adore its sleek, structured silhouette with the separate clutch at the front that can be unscrewed and used alone.
