Sag Harbor resident and founder of the luxury brand Skin, Susan Beischel, designs a global lifestyle brand encompassing lingerie, accessories and clothing made from the softest natural fabrics, and organic cotton materials ~ KDH LOVES SKIN! Drawing inspiration from nature, Susan’s collection includes items that can be worn to sleep, to lunch and to go from day to night. She shares, “We lead such hectic lives. I want to offer the world a soothing palette of clothing to comfort and cocoon in 24/7. Our skin is the largest organ of the body; we should address it with luxurious fabrics every day to feel comfortable living our best lives.”

On Saturday, July 20th, Susan invites KDHamptons readers for some Skin shopping and cocktails at Bonne Nuit, one of our favorite stores in East Hampton. Take a peek at her line and inspirations below, and toast with us all this weekend!

KDHamptons: How long have you been coming to the Hamptons? Why do you love it so much?

Susan Beischel: Since 2006. It’s my place to escape and relax. I love the beach, nature, farm fresh food and being with my friends there.

KDHamptons: Please describe your brand for our readers.

Susan: Skin is a sophisticated comfortable brand of clothing and accessories that cocoons you in the softest pima and organic cotton fabrics. It is brand for every day and every wear living. We cover you 24.7 in perfect weights and shapes starting with silky soft organic cotton underwear, and casual clothing to chemises and dresses for dinner.

KDHamptons: How would you describe your personal style? Do you have a Hamptons “uniform”?
Susan: I only wear skin, because I like to live simply. I wear skin to bed, skin to yoga, skin to the beach, and skin to dinner. I wear my robe as a tshirt, a beach cover up and like a mini dress with sandals.

KDHamptons: What is your favorite item from your spring / summer collection?

Susan: The tulip shaped slubbed cotton jersey wrap hooded robe/dress…I think my friends will be sick of seeing me in it all summer long. I’m getting one in black and one in white. I can see myself wearing it as a dress running around town day and night, a beach cover up, and sleeping in it at the end of the day.

KDHamptons: What are the details for the cocktail / shopping party Saturday night?

Susan: Here is the invite  below, KDHamptons readers are invited!

KDHamptons: What inspires your collections?

Susan: Definitely nature. First, I find the “space” to create in nature, as the quite peace that nature provides cleanses my palette and opens my mind for new ideas to come in. I am inspired to create a “complete” collection that mirrors the perfection I find in nature. I think that you can find all life lessons in nature, and therefore I strive to find all life’s clothing options in the skin collection.
