Jewellery Editorials

When you’re flicking through your pages of Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar or Elle you normally come across some jewellery editorials. These are pages are there to promote jewellery brands from designers or the high street.

Usually the Editorials are styled to enhance or draw attention to the jewellery, which is understandable as customers will need to see the pieces. A stylist would normally style the jewellery pieces on a model or with other props. If the jewellery is styled on a model it is normally exaggerated as the stylist would use many jewellery pieces to create the look which would be perfect for an editorial and also helps to promote the jewellery brand. 

The stylists job would be to create a look which is contemporary but not over- powering. Emphasis is normally on how the jewellery pieces are styled and how well they fit together, so colour and proportions and the brief would normally need to be considered. Have a look at the examples above. These examples are all styled creatively with a theme in mind.

Here is a Chanel AD Campaign which is to promote the Chanel Brand, but the emphasis is also on the jewellery pieces that are styled to create an Indian inspired look. 

Chanel’s Metier d’Arts Paris-Bombay Collection is styled by the former Paris Vogue Editor Carine Roitfeld and shot by Karl Lagerfeld.

Who is Karl Lagerfeld?

The answer to that is a... Genius! Now why is this man seen as the king in Fashion because of his ability and passion for creating garments that would enhance and flatter the female body. Well, this is a brief intro..... into the wonderful world of Mr. Karl Lagerfeld.

Karl Lagerfeld was born in Germany and at the age of 16 he entered a competition by the International Wool Secretariat for designing a coat. This led him to work as a design assistant for Balmain for three and a half years. Whilst in Paris Karl Lagerfeld worked as a freelance Designer for Chloe, Krizia, Fendi and Charles Jourdon shoes. Notably known for his transformation of the Channel house,whilst staying true to the origin of Coco Channel.

In 1983 he joined the House of Channel which he designed both the runway and the ready-to-wear collections. In 1984, he also started designing for his own label and fragrances. He designed for H&M, Macy’s and Hogan for collection for his fans who can’t afford the Haute Couture pieces. He owns a book-store in Paris and he is a photographer and stars in his own Ads. So, basically he is multi-talented and a veteran. What do you think of his work?

The reason why he is still around is because he knows what a woman wants and he isn't afraid to express it. His work is detailed orientated and he is a risk taker and this is, what has made him a powerful name in Fashion. It is his flair for fashion that creates the passion to design feminine, chic and sexy clothes for women of all ages. He works hard to provide collections for women who want to look and feel good. This is what has made him a renowned star in the Fashion Industry and a powerhouse. This sums up the history of Karl Lagerfeld and his journey! Even Designing for Diet Coke!

In the decades that he has been around, he has done a pretty awesome job of transforming the image of creating stylish modern clothing for women.  All we can do is nothing but admire Mr Lagerfeld and I think that he definitely deserves a standing Ovation for his input in creativity by being an influential designer.
