Conscious Fashion: Burn Baby Burn

Edgy and ethical? Who would have thought it was possible! But these new designs by the jewellery label E. A Burns are exactly that. Based in London and available through the label’s website, the designs are the creation of Lizzie Burns who studied design and graduated in 2006, subsequently setting up her jewellery label.

Most of the designs are made from ethically sourced, reclaimed leather and are all handmade in the UK. Biodegradable and reusable packaging is used for all internet orders, and the label strives to be environmentally sustainable and responsible wherever possible.

The designs feel so fresh and modern; they’d look amazing with anything from a simple, crisp white T-shirt to a sculptural party dress. The label has developed somewhat of a cult following for its triangular shapes and dinosaur inspired designs; one of the designs is actually called the Stegosaurus necklace. As a former dinosaur enthusiast, it’s pretty much the perfect necklace! There are even some collar tips on offer, the perfect way to update a tired shirt and add a slice of individuality to your outfit, and I’m predicting these are going to be the next big thing in the accessories world. The bright, almost neon colours included in the collection make the whole range an eye-catching array of kaleidoscopic fun; and the clean lines of the simple shapes top it all off.

Featured in the likes of Tantrum magazine, and worn by dance DJ Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs (check out TEED here and make them the soundtrack to your summer), it seems that E. A Burns is proving to be the hottest thing in jewellery design this summer.
