Ecoist has launched two new collections just in time for the holidays. Fans of the original candy wrapper bags can choose between the Hollywood inspired Glam Collection, and the South American styled Inca Collection.
“This holiday season Ecoist found inspiration in both the classic and the contemporary; The Glam collection is timeless and unique at the same time. The Inca Collection celebrates the past while staying innovative. People will be impressed that upcycled candy wrappers can look this refined,” enthused Ecoist co-founder Jonathan Marcoschamer.
The Glam collection recalls iconic screen legends with styles like the Audrey satchel and the Marilyn evening clutch. More modern film goddesses are also celebrated with the compact Gwyneth clutch and the larger Cameron one. I love the blend of retro influences and sophisticated contemporary fashion shown here, but if you prefer a more tribal look the Inca Collection may be more to your taste.
This range combines traditional Peruvian patterns with the signature Ecoist woven finish. Pompoms, floral motifs, and other vibrant decorations give the handbags a dose of whimsy. These accents are also eco-friendly, as they’re made from natural cotton colored with vegetable dyes. Profits from these handbags help to support local artists in Cusco, Trujillo, Ayacuho along with the other Peruvian craftsman that make Ecoist handbags.
With numbers strictly limited on both collections, I wouldn’t delay if you hope to snap one up. Shop for these purses exclusively at Ecoist.com.
