MASHU

Inspired by art-deco

architecture, Mashu’s bags

are 100 per cent vegan

and put sustainability at

the core of the brand.

As an alternative to leather,

it uses a natural fibre

called Pinatex – made from

cellulose fibres extracted

from pineapple leaves –

while the bespoke handles

are made from wooden

offcuts. Mashu’s mission

is to make beautiful bags

that don’t harm animals,

humans or the planet.

WICKER

WINGS

Made with the highest quality
rattan, grown from a single
seed, each Wicker Wings
bag is hand-finished by a
team of experienced leather
artisans. Taking two days to
make a single bag, the brand
is passionate about blending
the art of heritage skill with
modern design to create a
seasonless take on wicker.
In doing so, it’s also creating
and sustaining artisanal jobs;
leading the way for a socially
conscious business.

MONARC

More than 90 per cent of the

precious metals in Monarc’s

jewellery are recycled, and the

silver, gold and platinum refining

processes are fully sustainable.

This season, founder and former

model Ella Drake has teamed

up with Renee Stewart –

daughter of Sir Rod and Rachel

Hunter – to produce a seven-

piece collection. Renee’s flair for

shape and form, inspired by her

dancing career, informs these

fluid, timeless pieces in silver

and gold vermeil that are both

standout and very wearable.
