Life is better with colour and art
We design limited edition bags in collaboration with artists
WEARABLE ART THAT GOES WHERE YOU DO
Must-have pieces that bring art to lifeFashion and art are inseparable. At Consequence of Change, we have a purpose that reaches beyond aesthetics. We create unique and stylish bags and provide a platform for emerging artists to step into the limelight. Each piece tells a story and says as much about the wearer as about the artwork. They’re bold, considered, and focused on a new approach to fashion.
Our carefully curated artists breathe life into moving canvases that start a conversation. Each piece is crafted with care, and actively encourages a new perspective on fashion. Our unique pieces are created with longevity in mind – this is not fast fashion. This is keep-and-love-forever, wearable art.
Art you can take anywhere
Our community has strong relationship with creativity, a meaningful connection with the environment and thinks beyond the superficial. They blaze their trail and lead with integrity to create a better world, living boldly with a love of bold, quirky aesthetics.
Join us on our mission to spread the joy of wearable art with heart.
More than just a fashion label
We are working every day to become as sustainable as possible. The materials we use, our exclusive smaller collection runs, and our packaging are focused on minimising the impact to our planet. Our creations are built to last and their limited nature elevates them to collector item status.
In addition to this, we support the upward social mobilisation of marginalised communities wherever we can. An initiative with our full support is the Sewing the Seeds project – a programme dedicated to breaking the cycle of poverty for women in India. $1 from each Consequence of Change sale goes towards supporting this incredibly worthy foundation.
By purchasing a C of C piece, you are actively participating in the rising fortunes of others – both emerging artists and vulnerable communities. There is really no reason we can’t live responsibly and look good as we do it...

She explores subjects from nature, still life, through to the absurdly abstract.

As Seen In:
"I just wanted to let you know how happy I am with my recent purchase! I love my new bag!! Looks even better than it did online. The quality is amazing and I'm thrilled with it. It was definitely worth the wait" Kim
"Brilliant beautiful artistic bags. I received mine for my birthday just last Anzac Day and it is hanging in my bedroom in Auckland NZ as the first bright, beautiful thing I see when I walk into the room. Thank you to the C of C team, who also handwrite a birthday message on the tag. Love it!" - Robyn
"I love, love, love my Consequence of Change totes. Such great quality, really cool prints and great size. Once you have a Consequence of Change tote you’ll know not all totes are the same. Go on and get one, or two or three, you won’t regret it!" - Helena
"I have two COC bags and I love them both. My Neoprene is used more widely as an everyday bag. It's easy to carry and access my phone in the pocket is easy as. I've even thrown it in the machine so it's indestructible too. The other bag is the big 'eyes have it' day to night which I'm yet to use for overnight trips. It's patiently waiting to be filled. Great service all round and highly recommend the products." - Janie
