WHY LUXURY DESIGN HOUSES DON’T MAKE VEGAN BAGS AND ACCESSORIES.
A very interesting topic this one, and one that a lot of you have asked me to discuss over the years! I found myself learning about vegan leathers after being given a vegan bag (that I show in this). It was really fascinating to learn about the processes, and I thought “Hmm, why don’t any of the big brands make non-leather goods?”
My verdict is that (currently, from what I’ve seen), we’re getting REALLY close to some good quality vegan leathers, but most still rely on plastics. Not many of the leathers I saw actually looked that good. So my guess is that it’s a combination of: Cost – non-leather bags are sold for less, when there’s a chance that creating quality faux leathers makes it cost prohibitive?
Also, is it perhaps an ingrained habit, that we all predominantly buy leather when it comes to designer goods? Let me know what you think in the comments!

*The luxury bags shown here (from LV, Dior, Chanel) are as close to being vegan as I could get – I really did look around and it’s near impossible to find something that doesn’t have a bit of leather on it! These shown are 99% non-animal but they do have leather used for the brand label in the inside.
