Saskia Diez women’s Papier 135g bag from S/S 11 collection in light grey.
This 135g light bag is made of DuPont™Tyvek®, a synthetic paper that is extremely light but at the same time robust. A silk- screen printing technique was used on the surface of the material to achieve the light grey colour. The bag features two handles and is closable with a grey zip. It is waterproof, recyclable and tearproof.
A collaborative project between Saskia and Stefan Diez, the “Papier” series is an experiment in revising the classical typology: the two designers have pointed out the basic requirements to a travel bag – durability, protection and light weight – and sought for an appropriate material other than the traditional choices of leather and reinforced textiles. "Papier" won the German Designpreis 2010.
