Inspired by the spirit of The Ritz-Carlton resorts, The Ritz-Carlton x Kilometre Paris collaboration turns sun-soaked escapes and favorite coastal destinations into hand-embroidered travel totes, bags and bandanas.
This limited-edition capsule collection focuses on four legendary coastal resorts—The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel, The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara, The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island, and The Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne, Miami—and uses meaningful colors and details to tell the story of each destination's unique beauty. Exquisitely crafted by artisans in Morocco, each piece in the collection showcases the art of human collaboration, sewing, embellishment, and assembly.
A portion of the proceeds from The Ritz-Carlton x Kilometre Paris collection will benefit Community Footprints, The Ritz-Carlton's global social and environmental responsibility platform, and proceeds will support select initiatives within the local communities of participating resorts.
