The 15 Most Stunning Pieces from Net-a-Porter's Colombian Collective
Everything is perfect for your next warm-weather escape.
Globalization has made it tricky to unearth location-special buys, what with boutique Parisian labels setting up digital storefronts and London estate jewelers hawking their wares online. Leave it to Net-a-Porter, the original e-commerce pioneer, to find a way to inject local flair back into the shopping game with the launch of its Colombian Collective.
The capsule asks designers with ties to the region's burgeoning design scene—like Johanna Ortiz, Silvia Tcherassi, and Esteban Cortazar—to create special limited-edition pieces that make you feel like you're shopping in Cartagena even if you're thousands of miles away. Beyond vacation-ready swimsuits and resort pieces inspired by the country's energy, there are new iterations of classic Colombian mochila bags and styles incorporating traditional weaving techniques. Notable jewelry and statement headbands will add flair to pool-day looks or dinner attire.
Preview our favorites below, then see the entire capsule at Net-a-Porter.
