Jimena Suárez founded ready-to-wear accessory brand SENTIENT on a philosophy of kindness, unity and compassion towards humans, animals and the planet. The primary material used across the brand’s range of bags and garments is Desserto®, a vegan leather alternative made from cactus. In continuing their commitment to responsible consumption and production, from 2023, SENTIENT will be launching take-back programs to reuse and recycle used accessories and clothing.
