APPCYCLED
a sustainable revolution
We connect, inspire and amplify the voices of upcycling and refashion talent — through stories, collaborations, and impact-driven projects.
Less trash.
More talent.
Appcycled is evolving. No longer a simple marketplace, we’re now a creative hub that celebrates and supports the art of upcycling and responsible design.
We spotlight talent, tell stories, and bring people together through:
Sunshine Bliss ✨
A vibrant tribute to summer, Sunshine Bliss is a limited-edition swimwear collection crafted from upcycled fabric samples once destined to be forgotten. Each piece is unique, handcrafted in Italy from rescued textile tests, giving new life to high-quality materials through playful cuts, bold colors, and a touch of sunshine.
Designed for those who care about the planet without giving up style, Sunshine Bliss celebrates conscious fashion with a joyful soul.

But...
WHAT DOES UPCYCLE MEAN?
Upcycling represents the pinnacle of circular fashion. Deconstruct to reconstruct. It's a high-quality, creative, and productive process, ensuring each item is unique, artisanal, and crafted by experienced designers.

We collaborate with Italian tailors and small artisans to give new life to forgotten fabrics — and we do it with purpose, not just style.
