Daily Candy

 

Our original five towels – Aloys, Boudewijn, Coen, Daan, and Enzo – featured on Daily Candy blog. Thank you to Jordan Blumberg for the post that started it all.

LAY OUT
Deck Towel

What: Handmade Italian linens are big enough for a full spread-eagle sprawl. Pick from faded stripes or saturated solids evocative of the lazy summer we plan to have.
Why: It might be Buck (recent Columbia grad who makes them) or the thought of an evening spent listening to cicadas, but there’s just something romantic about soft linen and warm months.
Where: Online at decktowel.com.

Selectism

 

Boudewijn and Coen towels featured on Selectism, in a very astute prediction of trends in good ol’ St-Trop!

Simply wrap the linen towel around your head or waist. You will accessorize yourself instantly. From Deck Towel: “Our towels are light, compact, and sturdy. They don’t hold in sand or odors like cotton, and are both faster-drying and more absorbent. ” Choose from a variety of colors. Expect to drop about 100$US for one.
