Suitcase edit

She sells sea shells…

Few motifs are as synonymous with holiday living as the eternal seashell. We’ve been adorning ourselves with shells for over 100,000 years, recognizing their natural beauty and curating personal collections of our own. From barefoot saunters on the beach to fashion week runway shows, they’ve made their way in the everyday, while still evoking sun-filled memories of oceanside escapes.

We’ve put together an edit of our favorite uses of shells in fashion. If this isn’t enough to satisfy your coquillage craving, keep in touch as our Holiday Gift Guide will be arriving shortly.
