The Berry Berry is an ethical fashion brand based in Nottingham, UK. They make a unique range of upcycled bags & accessories.

How It All Began 

Love Your Planet The journey started with an environmental organization called Love Your Planet. Founded in 2012.  Love Your Planet inspires and encourage others to reduce, reuse, recycle and upcycle in a creative way. Whilst also teaching people how to live a healthy and eco-friendly lifestyle. 

Whilst working on the website the team discovered the vast problem of textile waste in the UK. They researched the numbers and found that the UK creates 1.3 million tonnes of textile waste every year!

The Berry BerryThe Love Your Planet team knew they could do better so they decided to launch *The Berry Berry in 2014. They created an ethical fashion brand, where they could use waste materials to create beautiful upcycled fashion products. 

The impact was immediate. With every 2 handbags made, they save 1kg of textile waste from going to landfill.
