SCENERY launches its new collection, featuring clutches and accessories made from upcycled materials from Broadway’s Kinky Boots set, July 10.

The “Say Yeah” handbag marks the first item in the collection, made from the red “Milan” curtain in the musical’s finale. This is the same curtain that provided the material for Billy Porter’s Tony Awards look in June, two months after the musical ended its Broadway run.
