Trend Letter 20

TREND LETTER - GOLD STATEMENTS

PAGE ONE:

Jewellery is riding high as today's most powerful expression of individuality, and, more and more, gold, endlessly expressive, the material and colour of the moment, with its messages and meanings, is becoming a defining element of personal style. A vital part of today's trend for statement dressing, jewels now have to stand out in the crowd, make a bold statement about the wearer's style, values, dreams. The mild-mannered, generic background jewel is a thing of the past. In its place are dynamic attention-grabbing designs, like Bob Export's swinging clusters of charm like pendants, or Songa Antonio's multi-link, multi-layered chain necklace.

PAGE TWO:

Gold is at the heart of the continuing layered look, which has grown organically out of the desire to create an intensely personal, strong style statement. Courageously contrasting textures and tones of gold become powerful focal points of a jewel, while the evocative gold chain gathers momentum, and different links are layered and mingled, for movement and meaning, as in Unoaerre's new collections. Sculptural and narrative, conversation piece jewels resonate with cultural references, like Aretina Arte's Minoan-inspired spiral scroll designs, but most of all the new generation of all-gold jewels exudes pride, richness and self-confidence. Gold gets you noticed.
