Syrian Olympic swimmer Yusra Mardini is making waves in the fashion world yet again, this time teaming up with the prestigious brand Prada.
With previous collaborations under her belt with brands like Boss and Oris, Mardini recently took to Instagram to flaunt her partnership with Prada, showcasing the Italian luxury label’s Re-Nylon Bag in a stunning brownish-green hue.

Prada’s Sustainable Re-Nylon Collection
In her Instagram post, Mardini highlighted the eco-friendly aspect of Prada’s Re-Nylon collection, emphasizing that the regenerated nylon is created through the recycling and purification of plastic collected from the ocean.
From the Runway to Charity
Known for her incredible journey as a refugee and Olympic athlete, Mardini has also made a mark in the fashion industry.

She walked alongside renowned personalities like Gigi Hadid, Natasha Poly, and Khaby Lame, showcasing her versatility and unique style.
In March 2023, Mardini strutted her stuff on the Boss runway in Miami, donning a white shirt dress paired with a beige vest, calf-length stockings, and brown heels from the brand’s Spring/Summer 2023 collection.
Empowering Refugees Through Fashion and Philanthropy
While Mardini continues to make a name for herself in the fashion industry, she remains deeply committed to her philanthropic endeavors. In 2023, she founded the Yusra Mardini Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to advocating for the rights of refugees and improving access to sports and education for refugee communities worldwide.
With a strong focus on empowering refugee athletes, Mardini’s foundation aims to provide direct support and opportunities for those in need.
As she balances her fashion career, philanthropic efforts, and studies, Mardini remains dedicated to making a positive impact on the world, proving that her influence extends far beyond the pool.
