London, UK –– LaBante London, a British vegan luxury brand, is proud to announce a new collaborative collection with American contemporary painter, Iris Scott.

Simply named LaBante x Iris, the collection features four vegan totes from LaBante’s collection, featuring a detachable shoulder strap with artwork designed by Iris, which is made to be reversible depending on the wearers desired style. The bags are 100% cruelty-free, sustainable, and ethically produced, with interiors made from reclaimed plastic bottles while the exteriors are made with vegetable by-products and microfibres, making the products themselves easily biodegradable.

“Iris and I connected via Zoom early this year and a naturel partnership blossomed from there,” Vanita Badlani, founder and CEO of LaBante London, said in a prepared statement. “This collaboration is about sustainable fashion converging with the art world and changing the narrative in fashion. This will be a collection that ultimately gives back to the planet.”

“I am proud to work with a brand that is not only cruelty free but also gives back to the planet” Iris Scott said in a statement, “I am looking forward to sharing this beautiful collection with my art connoisseurs.”

The full collection launched on the LaBante website on 28th October 2022.
