FASHIONTRIBES 5 MIN. PODCAST: Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, Makes Jewelry for a Good Cause. FASHIONTRIBES FASHION BLOG & PODCAST
(Some looks from Sarah Ferguson's jewelry collaboration with K&G Creations.)
Collaborating with K&G Creations of Boca Raton, Florida, Ferguson is bringing out two jewelry lines, a fashion’y collection of 400 pieces, and the Sarah Ferguson Signature Collection of 600, one-of-a-kind pieces.
In addition to classic jewelry designs, the lines will showcase Art Deco & more modern influences. Materials will include yellow & white gold – 14k & 18k - colored quartz, Tahitian and Baroque pearls and a colorless crystal known as Moissanite, found in meteors. "A lot of people say, 'Why would you do Moissanite?' and I do it because I think you can wear beautiful things and give people a chance to afford them," Ferguson told WWD. "That's why I like it. Everyone would expect you to do diamonds."
The jewelry will be sold in Macy's, Lord & Taylor and Belk, with a wide price range: $400 for 1 carat studs to a limited edition, 18 carat necklace for $18,000. However, it’s all for a good cause, as Ferguson will be donating her royalties the Sarah Ferguson Foundation, which supports children's charities. "I really love the fact that, just by doing this, we can bring a smile to a child's face. That's what revs my engines." (via WWD)
