Accessories is Melissa Odabash's resort accessories collection: beach bags, sun hats and leather sandals in cotton canvas, raffia, paper straw and full-grain leather, built for beach-to-evening dressing.
Before she was a designer, Melissa Odabash was a model who understood exactly what a wardrobe needed to work, and Accessories is where that instinct for finishing details still lives. Leather sandals, cotton canvas totes and considered travel pieces carry a woman from the sand to a beach-club lunch and on into the evening, one piece added each season rather than a wardrobe replaced outright.
Porto Cervo Beige Bag, a personalised cotton canvas beach tote, and
Cap Ferrat White Bag, its softer cotton canvas counterpart, lead the edit for daily beach-to-town carrying.
Capri Gold Clutch, a paper-weave clutch with leather trim, and
Cara Tan, a raffia tote, bring a lighter, more textural alternative, while
Kate Tan Stud Belt Hat,
Elle Natural Hat,
Taj Tan Hat and
Jemima Beige Hat - paper straw sun hats built for daytime and evening wear - move easily between the two.
Carry the Porto Cervo or Cap Ferrat tote with pieces from
Swimwear for beach days, or layer a Kate or Jemima sun hat over a kaftan from
Kaftans or a Beach Dress for lunch by the water. The right accessory does not finish a look, it explains it, and a considered one earns its place in a case long after the trip that first justified buying it.
