Firstly, it looks like DeMellier, this fancy London-based handbag brand (the kind Kate Middleton probably totes around, right? The article *kinda* implies that), makes a big deal about being ethical. Like, *really* big. It’s not just some greenwashing BS; they actually seem to care.
Now, where do these magical bags get made? Well, the text says “trusted factories in Europe.” Okay, cool. Which ones, though? That’s the million-dollar question, isn’t it? They’re keeping that info kinda vague. I’m guessing they don’t wanna reveal *exactly* where, probably for competitive reasons or maybe just because they value their privacy. I mean, can you blame them? Every factory would be hounding them after.
The thing that gets me going is this “finest materials sustainably sourced” bit. That sounds great on paper, but it’s also a total buzzword, yeah? Like, what *exactly* does that mean? Are they using organic leather? Are they making sure the workers are being treated fairly? We need deets! I wish they’d, like, show us a video or something of the factory. Gimme the behind-the-scenes, DeMellier!
And then there’s the “for every piece you purchase we fund vaccines and treatments” thing. That’s awesome! But again, how? Is this a direct donation? Do they partner with a specific charity? I feel like details are key here to really make it all shine, and you know, to make sure it’s not just a feel-good marketing ploy.
