Rock Lobster

When I was a child we spent several summers in a small fishing village, it wasn't a hotbed of excitement and activity but the food was incredible...lobsters and crabs, all fresh from the sea and in unbelievable quantities. Maybe it's just nostalgia but I can't help falling for Kate Spade's crustacean couture. True, they're a tad cheesy...the fashion equivalent of a stick of rock and a picture postcard...but what's summer without a little kitsch?

    seems like Spade was inspired by the Surrealist designer Elsa Shiparelli.
