Vivienne Westwood has revealed a new line of ethical bags made on the continent from recycled materials.
Fashion has been experiencing a boom in all things African,
from the recent Guinness adverts starring Congolese “sapeurs” (a
subculture of stylish, brightly dressed men) to Diesel and Edun's
African denim-based capsule collection manufactured entirely in Africa
with the finest Ugandan CCI cotton.
Now, Vivienne Westwood, never one to miss out on either a
trend or an opportunity to help push forward ethical fashion, has
designed a new range of recycled bags which have been handmade in the
Kenyan capital Nairobi.

Available in a range of styles from unisex rucksacks to
totes and zipped clutches, the bags are manufactured from recycled
canvas, reused roadside banners, and leather off-cuts and were carefully
constructed by communities of women affected by extreme poverty.
Available on ASOS with prices starting at a rather
reasonable £58 (approximately S$123), they're an affordable, and ethical
way to shop the Africa-inspired trend. -- AFP RELAXNEWS
