Michael Kors’ autumn collection: silver and gold plating, zircons and colored quartz ♦ ︎
Sterling silver, gold plating, colored quartz. And, of course, lots of padlocks, a hallmark of Michael Kors’ jewels. The American brand presented the collection for autumn 2018. The pieces can be chosen in the classic silver, or with yellow or 14 carat rose gold plating, in some cases with small cubic zirconia to emphasize the geometry, or colored quartzes that replace to the metal.
The Mercer Lock, the padlock closure designed by Michael Kors becomes in this case an element in which necklaces and bracelets are combined.
In short, not only a pendant, but also a piece of the jewel, which, tied by rings, forms the circle or the oval of bracelets and necklaces. Furthermore, the metal surfaces are treated with a subtle letter M. As well as being the initial of the name Michael, it is a letter of the alphabet to which the designer holds a lot, because he considers it a very strong graphic element. Prices: from about 100 euros for the simplest earrings up to 629 euros for a Mercer Link bracelet in 14K gold-plated sterling silver with cubic zirconia pavé. Lavinia Andorno
