Good news: vegan leather alternatives are only getting more popular

Vegan fashion has evolved rapidly in the last few years—even back in 2019, Vogue Business reported that luxury brands’ stock of vegan items had increased over the year by 258%. So it’s not surprising that animal-free versions of all the classics are hitting the shelves every day. This is great news for animals, as vegan fashion and accessories are made without leather and other animal skins and furs. And while most clothing is easy to veganise, handbags often come under scrutiny for being made of unsustainable materials like plastic-based PVC.

But thanks to an increasing variety of more sustainable leather alternatives—from fruit-based leather to recycled rubber and cork—brands are creating gorgeous cruelty-free handbags that see you caring for animals and the planet while remaining stylish. Read on to discover our top 14 favourite vegan handbags.

Government consulting on sustainable investment labelling

Government consulting on sustainable investment labelling

The Australian Government is starting consultation on sustainable investment product labelling, which is designed to give investors more confidence to put more capital to work in sustainable products.

The federal government said the release of this paper is a key step in implementing its Sustainable Finance Roadmap — designed to help mobilise the capital required for Australia to become a renewable energy superpower, modernising the financial markets and maximising the economic opportunities from net zero.

This consultation paper seeks views from investors, companies and the broader community on a framework for sustainable investment product labels.

These labels are designed to help investors and consumers identify, compare and make informed decisions about sustainable investment products to understand what ‘sustainable’, ‘green’ or similar words mean when they’re applied to financial products.

The government said a more robust and clear product-labelling framework will help investors and consumers invest in sustainable products with confidence and help tackle greenwashing.

This phase of consultation will run from 18 July to 29 August and help the government refine its design principles for the framework.

The consultation paper is available on the Treasury consultation hub.
