These Bedazzled Candy-Inspired Bags Are So Sweet
Rosantica is an accessories brand created by Italian designer Michela Panero, who launched with a range of jewellery in 2010. After almost a decade of creating items of beauty, Michela launched her first collection of bags in 2019. Her bags are jewellery-like, structured, luxurious, sparkling, embellished with crystals, pearls, feathers and chains. Even Beyoncé herself has been spotted carrying a Rosantica bag.

This season, Rosantica is serving candy-inspired bags to its legion of loyal fans. The cupcakes, ice creams and popsicles are a nod to the childhood nostalgia that we’re all reaching for at the moment, but they’ve been rendered in glittering, multi-coloured crystals to embrace the joy of going out again.
We’re keen to get our sticky fingers on a few of these pieces, but it’s so hard to choose!
