VOGUE ITALY


She has been designing jewellery for nine years, but she has only just launched her jewellery range. We are talking about Jessica Robinson, who after having worked in the fashion industry for some years, left the trade to devote herself to Ishta yoga, a discipline that strongly inspired her to start designing jewellery. Singer Rihanna, actress Sienna Miller and top model Lily Cole are amongst the greatest fans of her creations. The Afro-American designer focuses on silhouettes with strong sculptural effects, yet ultra-feminine appeal. Her jewellery also has an element of the ancient with references classical history and that of the orient, combined with a hip-hop mood. This is definitely a name that is worth keeping an eye on.

JAY KOS MONKEY NECKLACE


I just made this rose gold monkey-in-a-fedora necklace for my insanely talented menswear designer friend, Jay Kos (www.jaykos.com). He loves monkeys and this happens to be his brand's logo. The links connecting the monkey beads are in the shape of a banana. What a fun project!!!
