From hoses to handbags: in episode 18 of the podcast I talk to Kresse Wesling, the Co-founder of Elvis & Kresse an ethical luxury brand.

Elvis & Kresse was set up in 2005 to save fire hoses from going into landfill but has since partnered with Burberry to tackle even more waste becoming the luxury brand built on circularity.

Today, Elvis & Kresse's highly skilled craftspeople make beautifully designed bags and homeware from 15 different reclaimed materials.

Kresse tells me all about her story and how the brand has become what is is today.
