VO Plus: The September Issue

«CREATING A ‘TIMELESS’ JEWELRY item is now the biggest chal- lenge for any designer.» A challenge that British journalist, Carol Woolton, special guest in the Point of View section, takes up and explains in the opening contribution to our September issue. A totally renewed issue that tells stories, from David Webb’s New York dream to those of Lebanese Noor Fares, Andre Marcha and Selim Mouzannar. It explores the new style horizons of talented young designers like Tess O’Leary, co-founder of the Ore brand, which inebriates fine jewelry with a highly innovative concept of ‘wearable technology.’ And it celebrates much-respected anniversaries, from the seventy years of the all Italian Chantecler and New Look by Dior, to the ninetieth year of Elsa Schiaparelli’s ingeniousness and the centenary of la Rinascente. There are voices, opinions, insider’s views and so, so much beauty in this issue that enhances the natural harmony of shapes, discreet sensuality and the ‘timeless’ value of one-of-a-kind jewelry.
