Biomaterial Leather Bags
A Big Indian Story is Bringing Sustainable Fashion to India
Laura McQuarrie — August 18, 2022
A Big Indian Story is a Pune-based D2C sustainable fashion firm and the first Indian fashion brand to launch a vegan collection with Piñatex and Desserto leather. These sustainable leather alternatives are made with upcycled pineapple leaves and cactus, respectively, and they offer a look into the future of fashion. In India, where the sustainable fashion movement is in its infancy, these materials are now being introduced on a large scale for the first time ever.
The ethically produced bags and footwear offer a sustainable, modern take on traditional craftsmanship. And A Big Indian Story provides fair compensation and working conditions for the skilled artisans it works with.
A Big Indian Story recently completed a pre-series A funding round, which will help to support its intention to "pioneer the sustainable fashion movement in India."
