Jewelry Line to Watch: Bande des Quatres
check out the full article on elle.com:
here- Jewelry Line to Watch: Bande des Quatres
There is certainly no shortage of cool jewelry lines these days, but it’s rare that one stands out as much as Bande des Quatres. The very new line is made up of some of the coolest, most original rings we’ve seen in a while. The eye-catching shape, which is sort of like the inverse of a knuckle ring and creates a bit of an optical illusion, is what will get people to buy the 18kt yellow and palladium white gold jewelry, which doesn’t exactly come cheap.

TOM BINNS and NEON
I have recently discovered the beautiful world of Tom Binns designer jewellery...
amazingly colorful and perfect for this season....these pieces are to die for!!!here's an insight to his world:Tom Binns Design was founded in 2004 by jeweller Tom Binns and CEO Cristina Viera Newton.
Binns has been designing, manufacturing and distributing jewellery for over twenty-five years. Beginning his revolutionary career in 1981, his creative inspiration was and remains the early twentieth century Dada movement, amongst whose themes were deliberate irrationality, anarchy, and the rejection of standard beauty and social organisation
CEO Viera Newton begun her successful fashion career in 1971 modelling for fashion royalty such as Dior, Givenchy and Yves Saint Lauren. She went on to incorporate her experience and understanding of the world of fashion within the Jasper Conran organisation as Director of Pr where she worked with international style icon HRH Princess Diana. Following a move to California Viera Newton worked with the Valentino International PR Director Carlos Souza where her work included styling celebrities for prestigious events such as the oscar winning evening for Julia Roberts.
Tom Binns Design has garnered a growing cult following for its unique designs which combine elegance with anti-conformist sentiment. The creative direction and vision has earned Binns numerous prestigious awards including the 2006 Accessory Designer of the Year from the Council of Fashion Designers of America ("CFDA"), the 2008 British Fashion Council (BFC) Award for Best Accessories Designer and the 2010 Elle Style Awards for Best Jewellery Designer.
Their luxury attitude has now adorned icons ranging from Beyonce to Cate Blanchett and Michelle Obama to Lady Gaga.

FALL 2011... spotlight on Jonathan Saunders
Jonathan Saunders is a Scottish born and London based fashion designer who is known for his bold use of angular prints and bright colors. He is a decidedly modern designer who always offers something fresh and distinct. He won the British Designer of the Year at the Elle Style Awards in 2008 and his list of celebrity fans reads like a roster of Brit-it girls: everyone from Madonna and Kylie Minogue to Sienna Miller and Thandie Newton can count Saunders as one of their favorites.He is known for his bold use of angular prints and bright colors. His Fall 2011 collection juxtaposed strict shapes (fitted pencil skirts and sheath dresses) with bold geometric prints and colors.
Jonathan Saunders used a vacant floor of an office building as his venue, a relatively bleak space save for the simple decoration of several giant globe lights dotting the runway. The bleak space was the perfect backdrop for the striking creations that soon emerged.
Bright, bold, graphic prints are forecasted for Fall 2011
The designers who featured prints in their collections did so with bold statement pieces meant to make lasting impressions. Tuesday, March 8, 2011
