Orient Express Travel Series
Book – October 2003

The Campo Santa Margherita is also the home of another young designer, Gualti, who has been experimenting with soft resin decoration for shoes, scarves and handbags. His designs, inspired by the lagoon, are unique, often in coral or aqua shades. They can look quite spiky, like sea urchins or anemones, but are soft, and they bend, so even when embellishing the highest heels or the sleekest handbag they are delightfully practical.
