Fashion label Stussy teams up with Moroccan artisans on handmade rugs

DUBAI: After launching the cult-favorite Boston clogs in collaboration with Birkinstock, California-based label Stussy is back with another collaboration. The brand teamed up with Artisan Project, a cooperative of women weavers based in Ain Leuh, Morocco, to design a range of rugs made out of upcycled boucherouite T-shirts.

The rugs are made from archival T-shirts from Stussy’s warehouse in Irvine, California, that did not pass quality testing.

Limited to 30 pieces, each unique creation draws inspiration from Californian landscapes, surfboards and vintage Moroccan textiles.

The Stussy and Artisan Projects rugs retailed up to $2,464 and were made available exclusively on Stussy’s online stores on Sept. 3 – Unfortunately for those looking to get their hands on a piece, they sold out almost immediately.

The good news is that this collaboration marks the beginning of an ongoing partnership between the fashion brand and the Artisan Project.
