I remember watching my grandmother come up from the beach when I was young. Slicking her bob back, tying a sarong over her bathing suit, and proceeding to make a fruit platter of papayas, grapefruits and grapes on a wooden plate, alongside fresh bread and coffee. I think that's when my love affair with sarongs began.

Years later, travelling, I found a vintage Hermès scarf and started tying it as a sarong. I was obsessed. And that's exactly where the Heritage Sarong was born.

A square shape. A luxurious silk-cotton blend, more elevated than a cotton sarong, more wearable than a silk scarf. The hem is hand-rolled and hand-stitched, completely done by hand, the traditional way you finish a silk scarf for stronger reinforcement. 

One size. Six ways to wear it. My absolute must-have travel piece - it drapes beautifully, feels soft and breezy against the skin, and never compromises on fabulousness. The Cherry Ripe is our OG — the pink and brown combination that started it all, first seen on our best-selling cap. Soft, warm, and unmistakably BELLARUCHI.

Our mantra - live slow, live long - is printed down the side. A reminder of what this piece is really about. I was lucky enough to work with my aunty on the graphics, which makes it even more special to me.
