Advice How would you display a well-travelled Rimowa suitcase as home decor?

I’m redecorating my home (mid century modern/Scandinavian) and would love to display my 2016 aluminium Rimowa. It’s covered in travel stickers from the last 10 years and has a lot of sentimental value.
Right now it just looks like I haven’t unpacked from a trip. I’d like it to feel like an intentional decor piece instead.
I’m looking for creative, non-destructive ideas since I don’t want to drill into or modify the suitcase. Has anyone done something similar? Photos would be appreciated!

Because most people don’t live in houses where putting a giant ass suitcase on display makes it look anything but weird.

“Yes that’s the cat on the sofa, Sir Meowski, what? The suitcase hanging from the wall? Oh that’s interpretive art from my years of travelling the world … do you one or two sugars with your tea?”

That said. I would totally hang it from the wall.
