GAIA REPOSSI...












Have I told you how much in love I am with Gaia's Repossi jewelry?!!!
OMG! I really want one of those to die for rings and cuffs! They are so divine and feminine but with a bit of an edge....
Ohh and I love her campaign photos with Malgosia Bela, what a beauty!
A little bit of history for those who have never heard of the Repossi family....

As Artistic Director and the only daughter of Alberto Repossi, Gaia Repossi is responsible for developing collections for the storied house founded by her great grandfather.



With a degree in Fine Arts and a masters in Archaeology and Anthropology, Repossi is inspired by ethnic silhouettes and tribal adornment coupled with contemporary art.

Using this knowledge, she is able to leave behind conventional design while still remaining true to the traditions of old world craftsmanship.  

The skills of artisans are employed with a youthful sensibility and applied ancient references.

Repossi collaborated with fashion’s best young talent including Alexander Wang and Joseph Altuzarra, as well as cast friends as muses and engaged artist and sculptors in the creative process.

Apparently Gaia has given her young twist to the brand and everyone wants to own a piece from her amazing jewelry  collection including myself! :)
