Designer Discovery: Tamlin & The Fall



I am in Love. Capital L type of love. I was hunting for the next Bag Lady when I stumbled upon Tamlin & The Fall who just debuted the most divine capsule collection called The Space Between. A collaboration between the brand’s founder Jessamee Sanders and designer Elise Ballegeer, the collection encompasses sculptural clutches that fuse silver, leather, hammered-chain and featured into a work of art. Obviously inspired by nature, the clutches are available in three shapes, egg, crystal and shell.





My favourite is definitely the egg with the shell a very close second. The egg has a fissure that cracks open to reveal an alligator-lined interior while the shell slips onto your hand like a glove. Nearly every aspect of their minaudieres is created by hand in New York and each piece is custom made. These babies don’t come cheap though, starting price is US$19,800. I believe showings are by appointment only and of course, they are based in New York so I can’t pop over to admire the pieces in person. However, if you are lucky enough to be on the other side of the world and want to check out these creations, contact Jessamee
