With summer approaching, you can't go wrong with a woven straw handbag. Here, L'OFFICIEL rounds up the best sustainable brands to shop for the upcoming season.
Melie Bianco
Melie Bianco' handbags are primarily made from vegan leather, though they make a great woven bag as well.
A A K S
A A K S was founded by Akosua Afriyie-Kumi to introduce her favourite weaving techniques done by women of Ghana and create sustainable jobs within the country. All bags are handcrafted in Ghana, and the designs are unique, vibrant, beautiful, and as at home on vacation as they are on the streets.
Helen Kaminski
Helen Kaminski has been worn by many celebrities, such as Angelina Jolie, Nicole Kidman, and Cindy Crawford. Their bags combine traditional handcraft with modern design, and the company also works to be sustainable by using renewable resources and expanding product longevity to minimize the impact on the environment.
