With the who’s who of the fashion fraternity ready to descend on London next month for its’ infamous fashion week, the British Fashion Council have begun to reveal the much anticipated line ups for the 5 day stretch, beginning with the Rock Vault Designers to represent S/S’14.
Representing the exclusivities of fine jewellery from across the world, the Rock Vault Designers will showcase their latest designs at the Designer Showrooms in Somerset House, spanning the 5 day showcase.
The designer brands selected to take part in this unique showcase are previous recipients Alice Cicolini, Fernando Jorge, Hannah Martin, Imogen Belfield, Jo Hayes Ward, Melanie Georgacopoulos, Tomasz Donocik and Yunus & Eliza.
This season welcomes Rock Vault newcomers Jacqueline Cullen, who specializes wholly in contemporary Whitby jet jewellery, and Ornella Iannuzzi, whose work is characterised by harmonious composition of colours and textures.
Following the success of last years’ LFW Rock Vault the Couture show in Las Vegas invited seven of the designers to showcase their latest offerings at the Stephen Webster Ballroom to the US Press and Buyers.
Stephen Webster comments, “Now entering the fourth season of Rock Vault at London Fashion Week and following a hugely successful first international showing at Couture, Las Vegas, Rock Vault is well and truly established as the number one venue for buyers of fine jewellery. This season the Rock Vault panel is pleased to welcome two new designers to show alongside the current existing members. The work of Jacqueline Cullen and Ornella Iannuzzi demonstrate the incredible depth of real talent to be found within the British jewellery industry.”
