“The fashion industry tends to attract people with serious personality defects. They just want to be rich and famous. But at some point you have to decide: Are you going to mindlessly go the easy way or are you going to go the ethical way?”
Based in Montreal, Deborah hand crafts one-of-a-kind leather bags and accessories. Each piece is created from recycled leather making the bags both environmentally conscious and unique.
Deborah's attraction to sustainable fashion lies in the deep sense of satisfaction she retains from knowing that the creation of her products does not contribute to the landfills, unnecessary pollution and animal cruelty, caused by conventional leather manufacturing.
She draws her inspiration from both her upbringing in the British Isles and the variety of colours, textures and tailoring that can be found in traditional leather clothing. She loves taking on a creative challenge and her beautiful bags certainly prove that!
