The spring collections designers sprinkled the runways of Paris and Milan with had more color and unexpected twists than we’ve seen in a while, and the excitement it’s generated is contagious. What was noteworthy this season was that a handful of designer houses included jewelry in their collections. The models stepped out onto the runways bejeweled with impressive, attention-grabbing jewelry. The bigger the better is the rule, and it seems that designers could not resist it this year. The necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and brooches that made it down the runway were of spectacular quality and had eye-catching, lust-worthy designs. And at the end of the day, the jewelry pieces carried each show as much as the clothes!
The Balenciaga Spring 2008 collection featured structured and trendy floral minidresses and dresses and pantsuits in metallic hues. The accompanying jewelry suit the styles perfectly. The model for the Balenciaga collection balances her sage green dress and ankle boots with chunky gold bracelets and a multi-strand gold necklace. Coordinating the colors and styles of your necklaces and bracelets generates a cool sophisticated vibe, and combining pieces from different designers can make this effect delightful. Pair the Carolina Diamond Moon and Star Necklace with the Kenneth Jay Lane White Beaded Chain for the perfect sweetheart look, and stack the Melinda Maria Pod Cuff, Tracy Matthews Double Ribbon ID Bracelet, and the Lisa Stewart Gold Gem Bangles to spice things up.
The word that best describes the essence of the John Galliano’s Spring 2008 collection is fanciful. The gorgeous springtime colors matched the petals and stems of your Valentine’s Day roses perfectly. The fabrics of the dresses and pantsuits were light and loose. Every one of the models looked as if they were going somewhere fabulous, and were tempting us to wonder where. But the beauty of the collection lies in the possibilities each stunning creation posesses. The Leila Square Pendant and Ribbed Enamel Rings come in bright playful colors that are as free and light as the inspiration of the collection. Look no further than the Jill Jacobson Pearl and Floral Collage Necklace for this model’s Galliano look. The beautiful necklace’s appeal is its unexpectedly charming mix of pearls with gold jewelry.
Color combinations like royal blue and white, yellow and gray, and coral and black cropped up in Marni’s Spring 2008 Collection, yet it worked in a way we’ve never seen before. The loose fabrics swayed and moved easily as the models strutted their stuff in platform stilettos and colorful handbags on their arms. Take inspiration from this fun daring collection and embrace color once again. Ettika’s neon orange Horse Shoe Cuff has that exciting punch of color we know you crave, and Blu’s Neon Bangle Set has such a wide variety that you might find yourself reaching for one of the bangles everyday. The flower trend from the spring continues to be fabulous, and you can draw inspiration from the beautiful flower cuff bracelet in this detail of the Marni model, and wear the Kenneth Jay Lane Gold Flower Ring with a smile on your face.
