Perhaps though, like many other fashion lovers, you’re finding yourself questioning the ethics of wearing this timeless staple. Or you need something more durable and low maintenance – something this mom of three can definitely sympathize with.
Fortunately more and more designers are choosing to use cruelty-free and eco-friendly leather alternatives in their collections to suit these growing demands. Brands like Stella McCartney, Nanushka and Low Classic are pioneering sustainable substitutes using innovative new materials that look and feel just like the real deal. So say goodbye to the sticky, unbreathable faux leather that cracks, peels and goes squish. Today’s faux leather is luxurious, buttery soft, durable and in many cases machine washable too – woohoo!
