DESIGNER SERIES | Aurora Hoops AW2019
Did you know that my painting served as the inspiration for the Aurora Collection?
An artwork I made for a Wine & Design event in the spring of 2016 served as the inspiration for this collection. I painted it while hanging out with my girlfriends. We had an amazing time together, creating art while sipping a little (or a lot) of wine, laughing, and sharing our take on the art we all created.
My painting currently hangs on our family room wall. I am always reminded of the memories we made during that time. Fast forward to the summer of 2019. When I sat down to finally design my next autumn collection, I wanted to create space for movement within my designs.
One day while watching a movie, I pulled inspiration from my surroundings and played with some thin copper wire, making layers of circular shapes. After making several mockups, I stopped the movie and began sketching ideas from the designs I made with the copper wire. Soon after, the Aurora Collection launched in September.
To this day, the Aurora Threaders continue to be the number one selling earring at CLJ. I'm smitten and filled with gratitude for the love so many have for this earring style.
