OUR MISSION + VISION
one multi-functional wallet for an organised life
We’re on a mission to reimagine waste into circular designed fashion accessories with purpose. Not only do our recycled leather goods keep waste out of landfill but our versatile designs help women stay organised, find their freedom and feel empowered to create their own style by repurposing, restyling and wearing their accessories their way.
As advocates for regenerative fashion, we donate $1 from every sale to Greening Australia to support their revegetation work across Australian landscapes.
WHO WE ARE
OUR PURPOSE
The Elsewhere Co. was founded in Melbourne in 2019 with the vision of reimagining waste into circular designed fashion accessories with purpose.
We don’t make handbags for the sake of fashion. We design incredibility useful, runway-worthy accessories made from waste material – staple pieces you can REPURPOSE + RESTYLE countless ways to elevate your look and extend your existing wardrobe.
We believe in channelling the power of creativity to RECYCLE + REIMAGINE what’s already in circulation instead of taking more precious resources from our planet.
The earth’s resources aren’t infinite which is why we’re committed to making the future of fashion green by REGENERATING + RESTORING landscapes and biodiversity through our partnership with Greening Australia.

MEET THE FOUNDER
“I believe in creating honest fashion accessories that are stylish, sustainable and made-to-last. Today, designers have a responsibility to create products that not only respect
the planet but that go further by offering solutions to critical environmental issues such as textile waste and biodiversity decline.”
Designer and founder, Liz Archer

We’re helping women stay organised, find their freedom and feel empowered to create their own style by repurposing, restyling and wearing their accessories their way.

Zero Plastic Packaging
Our accessories are thoughtfully packaged without single use plastic in a beautiful recycled-cotton dust bag. So far, our packaging bags have diverted 32kg of cotton waste from landfill and it’s only the beginning!

OUR PARTNERS
ETHICAL MANUFACTURING
OUR SUPPLIERS
We work with suppliers that share our ethical and sustainable values. We've partnered with Hong Kong + Paris based green tech company, Recyc Leather to produce our recycled leather bags and wallets. Our collections are ethically crafted in their partner factory in Guangdong Province, China. The factory has ISO 14001 and Sedex certifications, demonstrating a responsible approach to environmental management and ethical working conditions. As a small family-run business, our chain + charm collection is largely hand-assembled by us in our studio and our designer deadstock pieces are sourced from Remnant Warehouse in Sydney. We're committed to transparency and will be adding new supplier information as we launch upcoming collections.
