LaBante London is a London-based sustainable luxury accessories house, founded in 2011 by Vanita Badlani. The name comes from Sanskrit and means “to truly achieve,” a reflection of the brand’s founding belief that luxury and sustainability are never a trade-off. LaBante designs vegan luxury handbags, wallets, and cruelty-free designer accessories that match the craftsmanship and quiet-luxury aesthetic of legacy fashion houses, while remaining 100% animal-free and built around next-generation sustainable materials. Today LaBante is a PETA-Approved Vegan, SEDEX-audited luxury brand carried in leading US retail and recognised internationally as a pioneer in ethical fashion in London and beyond.

At the heart of the brand is LaBante Leather, an exclusive cellulose leather made from agricultural waste. This plant-based leather is 100% biodegradable, produced without fossil fuels, and made using only a fraction of the water required for conventional leather. The result is a biodegradable, plastic-free vegan leather made with no PVC and no PU, giving the brand a range of biodegradable handbags with no compromise on durability, finish, or design.
