Number Eighteen

“By nature I have always been quite a controversial character - I have always been into ‘really filthy’, ‘really dirty’, and attracted by things that other people are uncomfortable with.” - Sam Roddick, owner of Coco de Mer (Handbag interview).

It’s here. Coco de Mer’s grand opening for their first US store is today at 8618 Melrose Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90069. Contact information can be found on their website here.

Hint Magazine calls it ”Coitus Couture”. Another calls it a ”sophisticated idea of sexuality”. Stop by the store and see what all the buzz is about. You’ll find everything from nipple covers and clitoris creams to Swarovski-encrusted merkins by J. Maskrey and feather-tailed molten crystal vibrators by Shiri Zinn, or you can be tied up with a pair of leather bondage gauntlets designed exclusively by artisan extraordinaire Paul Seville.

Oh, and be sure to watch the new film “Honey and Bunny” on their website...you will be enlightened. A game of catch anyone?

A couple of interviews with Sam Roddick can be found here and here.

These are a few goodies you’ll find when you visit the store.
