Top designers love eel skin

As you might be aware, eel skin leather is a wonderfully soft, incredibly supple and super strong. The more it is used, the softer it gets. It is such a unique material, despite being used for many years. It is a natural by-product of the food industry in Asia where eels are extensively farmed for their meat and the skin is discarded. We at BoBelle London love using this wonderful leather as it is perfect for accessories. We are not the only brand though; the likes of Alexander McQueen, Rupert Sanderson, Yves Saint Laurent and more have used this opulant by-product:

(This YSL beauty in scarlet is my personal favourite....)

The general public are demanding more longevity from their accessories and wish to incorporate fashion with ethics. That is what we at BoBelle London pride ourselves on. We want to offer our customers luxurious fashion that is a natural by-product and that is lovingly made. We are constantly updating styles and shapes and have some exciting new products in line for Christmas....!

We are now off to Paris for a lovely trade show (photos and blog updated next week); so have a lovely weekend and we hope to welcome you back to BoBelle London soon!

Best wishes,

Claire
