Fish-printed fabrics and shell-shaped accessories inject some sea life in to the worlds of fashion and interior design. Designers are taking things 20,000 leagues under this season, for the sea references ran rampant. From resin seashell clutches from Chanel to fine jewelry modeled after starfish, conchs and covered in mermaid scales, the fashion world has gone waterproof. But this slippery trend has dripped over to the other side as well, making home décor equally aquatic. From a Colombostile side table perfectly suited for a beach home to Asprey’s caviar bowl and serving set adorned with seahorse handles.
