The method of claim 4, wherein forming the hard luggage shell further comprises pressing the first layer of hard shell material, the second layer of hard shell material, the one or more ornamental substrate, and the third layer of hard shell material together. 6. The method of claim 4 wherein the one or more ornamental substrate is formed from any of plastic, metal, wood, cardboard, styrofoam, and/or foam. 7. The method of claim 6 wherein the hard shell material comprises at least one of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), carbon fiber, and/or Tegris®. 8. The method of claim 7 further comprising: removing a portion of the first, second, and third layers of hard shell material proximate each corner to define a respective notch at each corner;folding first and second edges of the first, second, and third layers of hard shell material to form first and second sides of the article of luggage;folding third and fourth edges of the first, second, and third layers of hard shell material to form third and fourth sides of the article of luggage; andsecuring a rigid corner piece to the first and second sides proximate each notch. 9. The method of claim 8 wherein the one or more ornamental substrate is disposed within at least one of the first, second, third, and/or fourth sides of the first, second, and third layers of hard shell material. 10. An article of luggage formed from the method of claim 1. 11. An article of luggage formed from the method of claim 3. 12. An article of luggage formed from the method of claim 4. 13. An article of luggage formed from the method of claim 6. 14. An article of luggage formed from the method of claim 7. 15. An article of luggage formed from the method of claim 8. 16. An article of luggage formed from the method of claim 9. 17. A luggage article comprising: a front hard luggage shell section and a rear hard luggage shell section, each of the front hard luggage shell section and the rear hard luggage shell section including:a first layer of hard shell material having a width and a length;a second layer of hard shell material having a width and a length that is substantially similar to the width and the length of the first layer of hard shell material;one or more ornamental substrate disposed between at least the first layer of hard shell material and at least the second layer of hard shell material; andwherein at least the first layer of hard shell material, the second layer of hard shell material, and the one or more ornamental substrate comprise a hard shell section;wherein the first layer of hard shell material, the second layer of hard shell material, and the one or more ornamental substrate are formed into the hard shell section by heating at least the first layer of hard shell material, the second layer of hard shell material, and the one or more ornamental substrate together. 18. The luggage article of claim 17 wherein the first layer of hard shell material, the second layer of hard shell material, and the one or more ornamental substrate are formed into the hard shell section by pressing at least the first layer of hard shell material, the second layer of hard shell material, and the one or more ornamental substrate together. 19.
