The Luxuriously Sustainable Leather Brand
Born from the single question “Is Leather Modern?”, California-based native Sicilian Caravello set out to design chic and sustainable leather bags that marry aesthetic elegance with eco and social sustainability, allowing the legacy of luxury Italian leather to coexist with modern ethical practices.
“After seeing so many synthetic materials in the fashion industry, I decided to put my effort into designing with a completely natural leather, plastic-free experience.” says Caravello. Wanting to keep with traditional Italian craftsmanship, Caravello and her team traveled across Italy to find ethical suppliers who are fully committed to providing a safe and healthy work environment for their workers and to applying all the latest technologies in order to protect and preserve our ecosystem.
In its mission to keep a small carbon footprint, MODHER (pronounced ‘MOD-HER’ as a marriage of modern and leather) leaves no stone unturned. Firstly, no animal is killed for its skin, and what would otherwise be discarded by the food industry is transformed into a long-lasting luxury piece that can be loved and carried forever. There is also no redundant packaging, and all bags are shipped in boxes of recycled cardboard and FSC chlorine-free paper, in 100% cotton dust bags.
The debut collection consists of three classics: the everyday structured Elba tote, the softer best-selling pebbled Bellagio carry-all (both with detachable wallet) and the chic and easy Envelope Clutch. “Because we are all about thoughtful purchasing, rather than buying something new and trendy each season, we kept our debut collection essential.” says Caravello.
MODHER’s mission is to create a thoughtful experience from the time each piece is handmade by Italian craftsmen, to its journey to the consumer, all the way to the end of its life.
