5 Of The Best Vegan Leather Brands We Love

31st January 2023 | By Astrid Carter

If you love the look of leather but are after pieces that offer a more animal-friendly option, we’ve edited out the best vegan leather brands in the industry right now. From the fashion editor favourite to the label nailing wardrobe staples, here are our favourites…

 

Stella McCartney

Brit designer Stella McCartney has been vegan since launching her label back in 2001 and thus has had two decades to refine the faux leathers they use in their ready-to-wear and accessories linens. The result, as you can imagine, is some of the best on the market, from sumptuously soft bombers to well-tailored trousers.

The brand also offers up some more fashion-led pieces in vegan leather each season and for SS23 we’re lusting over the Broderie Anglaise-trimmed  Mini Dress – grungy black leather trimmed with a sweet broderie anglaise trim.

 

Two decades in the business have honed Stella’s dedication to vegan and sustainable fashion.

Nanushka

Nanushka may be the fashion editor’s choice right now but their ethical values run far deeper than their sought-after collections. The brand, which was launched in 2005 by Hungarian London College of Fashion graduate Sandra Sandor, focuses on three key pillars throughout everything they do  – Earth; Community; and Circularity – to ensure they are always creating considerately and giving back. They’ve also pledged to use 1000% sustainable materials by 2025.

Fashion-wise, expect tailored pieces with a feminine spin and some of the best vegan leather blazers around. This season, we’re adding milky-hued vegan leather The Ashton Jumpsuit to our wish list, as well as the butterscotch Karo Blazer – divine.

The Frankie Shop

Few brands have had a trajectory quite like The Frankie Shop. From their boxy blazers to that quilted jacket that every style influencer worth their salt has been spotted in, they are one of the brands of the moment and continue to rise. If you’re a fan of oversized, deconstructed shapes, The Frankie Shop is. one to check out and a stellar choice if you’re after some high-quality vegan leather.

We’re currently lusting after the Chicago Oversized Perfecto Jacket – as the name suggests the perfect option if you’re after a rock ‘n’ roll-inspired biker but with vegan ethics. Whilst the Diana Faux Leather Trench Coat – brings a tougher edge to a wardrobe staple. (more…)
