We talk a lot about materials at Sans Beast, as a brand always looking for innovative, durable + beautiful alternatives to animal leather. Introducing more bio-based fabrics is our goal, and MIRUM® is an important part of that. Learn more about this fabulous material.
This week is Fashion Revolution week, an annual global campaign bringing together the world's largest fashion movement for a week of action. Everyone has a part to play in building a fashion industry that puts people, animals + the planet first: we encourage you to visit Fashion Revolution and reflect on where your clothes + accessories came from.
Introducing more bio-based materials into the Sans Beast handbag collection is our goal, and we're excited to launch more styles crafted in Italian Uppeal™ apple 'leather' as part of Series 14. Learn more about this innovative material.
Welcome to Wonderlust: our 13th collection of modern + functional handbags, designed with adventure in mind. Series 13 heralds the expansion of our bio-based material offering, with new styles in Italian Uppeal™ Appleskin and a returning favourite in Desserto Cactus 'leather.'
INSPIRATION: From Trash to Treasure - the Beauty of Upcycled Fashion
By Jennifer Wills
What to do when a bag is no longer able to be repaired, when it's beyond rescuing? We don't give up on them + send them to landfill: we embrace the beauty of upcycled fashion.
Whether it's for environmental or ethical reasons, more + more people are seeking alternatives to leather in the fashion space. The term 'vegan leather' has gained in popularity as a result. What does this mean, what are the options, is it better or worse for the environment? For Sans Beast, ethics will always be a fundamental element of this conversation - we don't believe animals should suffer for our fashion choices - however for many, it's a bigger conversation around the environment + finite resources, that resonates. We attempt to offer some insight on this subject in this blog post.
It's Fashion Revolution 2023, the 10th anniversary of a global campaign that was conceptualised after the horror of the Rana Plaza collapse in 2013. The aim is to bring attention + respect to workers + the planet. We'll be marking the week with stories on who's behind our bags, as well as expanding our charity giving + a super exciting upcycling collab to come.
Sustainability is the buzzword of the moment. We don't profess perfection, but we have made some intentional choices in our manufacturing, materials + packaging that keep us on a path we are proud of.
As a new financial year begins in Australia, we want to update our community on our charitable donations + the impact each cruelty free purchase from Sans Beast has on three important causes.
Sans Beast was created with the sole purpose of delivering vegan fashion that had beauty without the beast, so we don't hesitate to lend our voice to the #dropcroc campaign to end the slaughter of crocodiles for fashion.
Sans Beast is gearing up for the festive season, planning vegan feasts + of course plenty of vegan bags on our gift lists. Read more about what we're eating, supporting + gifting this year, along with details of our festive gift wrapping + the all important shipping timelines.
