Actor Chloë Sevigny donned a designer's hat to collaborate with Chopard for a line of sustainable bags this fall season. Taking cues from the classic silhouettes of the 40s, the bag is available in beige, black, and blue. What makes this piece stand out is the leather - Chopard worked closely on the traceability of the leather and collaborated with suppliers to ensure that eco-age principles were followed. A major part of the process included an emphasis on environmental management system - that all contents of the process of making the bag, including water, waste, and energy were responsibly managed.
