Inspired by Cornwall’s wild landscape and vibrant artistic culture, Seasalt’s team of in-house designers and artists design all collections from their studios overlooking Falmouth Bay. 

Seasalt prides itself on creating clothing and accessories that are made to last, crafting timeless styles from durable natural fabrics like GOTS-certified organic cotton, merino wool, bamboo-derived viscose and linen. Inclusivity is incredibly important to the brand, and their clothing range offers a diverse choice of fits, including plus, tall and petite. With its distinctive mix of artistic prints and Cornish-inspired colours, Seasalt is excited to bring stylish womenswear, unique accessories, and a new menswear collection to the shoppers of Aberdeen.
