Vegan and sustainable handbag brand Alkeme Atelier was awarded for creativity, innovation and research. This brand uses materials such as pineapple fiber, coconut leather, vegan leather made with 70% recycled fibers, grape leather, recycled plastic bottles and bamboo fiber, to achieve a luxurious, high quality finish.
Sophistication and high quality have nothing to do with animal exploitation, and brands like this are pushing forward in the fashion industry to leave cruelty behind.
