For her graduation project at Central St. Martin’s, Japanese designer Maiko Takeda created the ‘Cinematography’ Collection. Each metal accessory is covered in hand-drilled holes of various sizes that cast photograph-like shadows onto the wearers skin. Read her interview on Dazed Digital
Some of the most interesting fashion editorials don’t deal with clothing at all. Magazines often feature interesting and unusual content related to jewelry and accessories in general. Here is a compilation of some of the coolest we found around the web – You can also see some more posts we’ve written about Jewelry Designers.
The 1981 ‘ATARI Ring’ is handmade designed by Brooklyn-based Sakurako Shimizu – Created in 2008 from 18 karat gold and looks pretty Sick !! This man’s ring features a precise cast of the original Atari computer chip, available also in Silver, this will make a perfect gift for the stylishly, pc-loving, geeky gentleman.
New Zealand design trio, and all around rockstars of the country, Stolen Girlfriend’s Club have been awarded with the DHL fashion exporter of year award. This award gives recognition and a grant to pump their cool ideas through the veins of the international world.

I have been contacted on the asmallworld by Christelle Traore designer of pretty fancy Zo-Landing Jewelry a line of Jewels & accessories in true crocodile leather and gold (18 carats) or plated gold. Pretty interesting pieces…
Growing Jewelry is a redefinition of modern values. It is a clash of jewelry an gardening; couture and organism. The collection of this hand jewelry is designed for people in metropolitan cities and is an experiment in drawing nature toward man, as nature being the presupposition of life
55DSL collaborates with Japanese jewelry line, Complete Technique to release an exclusive speaker pendant. To commemorate the new line, a celebration will ensue at the 55DSL store in NYC tomorrow. The joint venture will feature this exclusive pendant available solely at the 55DSL in NYC. Doors open from 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm and music will be provided by “Future Shock” which includes the stars from the upcoming MTV move, “Made in Queens” and an open bar provided by Red Bull (with vodka, of course).
Martin Margiela collaborated with legendary Italian jewelers Damiani to create these stunning pieces. I love the idea of taking traditional images of jewelry and playing with size to alter their wearability. The ring shape blown up to a bracelet, or the classic studded earring blown up into a necklace charm. Anything that Margiela touches turn to gold, he can do no bad.
Philips is going through a complete makeover. I used to think Philips was just another t.v. company, but you must visit their Design Probes Project, the aim of understanding lifestyle post 2020. One of their cool projects ( in addition to projects concerning tattoos and jewelry) is called Skin: Dresses “which examines the future integration of sensitive materials in the area of emotional sensing – the shift from ‘ intelligent’ to ‘sensitive’ products and technologies.” These Bubelle dresses are composed of two layers, the inner layer has biometric sensors that pick up a person’s emotions and projects them in colors onto the second layer, the outer textile. The dress also changes color according to our emotional state. Like a mood ring, but a mood dress.
The shift from intelligent to sensitive…really interesting concepts they are playing with at Philips. Yes, the way we dress is first and foremost dictated by our mood and Philips is taking our emotive dressing to a future level. Susie Bubble ( whom I adore for her camera-in-her-face-as-she-styles-outfits-btw Happy Birthday Susie!!!) asks “Do I want everybody in the world watching me feel either elation, embarrassment, anger or attraction as I swan around in this Bubelle dress on the streets…”
I agree with her, I definitely don’t need the world to know how moody I really am, BUT conceptually I love what Philips is doing to blend fashion and technology, an area that we are seeing merge more and more.
Kinda loving this ghetto-fab “Nail Wrap” by Bijules NYC, especially the hissing snake, wrapped around the nail.
As much as we want ( some may say need) those shoes or purses, the reality is that for some of us we can’t always have every fashion accessory we may think we need. The clever people at Bag Borrow or Steal found a way to give people the opportunity to own/borrow these items!
