A WRINKLE IN TIME
This was the most difficult (and intense) collection I've ever designed, simply because I had 6 weeks to create it, pitch it to Disney, and have the final specs completed and handed off to Alex and Ani's vendor for production. Phew! Talk about a rush!
Since I didn't have much time to ponder what direction to take this in, and little help from Disney (I didn't have access to the movie footage), I went back to the basics and started with the very first words from the book: "It was a dark and stormy night." I figured if that's how the book started, it's where I'd start too. Eventually, words became the focus of the entire project.

BRIDAL
I suggested the addition of a bridal line because the collection "Because I Love You" did consistently well for Alex and Ani. When designing this collection I focused on making sure the charms were reminiscent of engagement jewelry - embellished with crystals, neutral in color, and detailed in a sophisticated, delicate way. It was my goal that these charms would resonate with soon-to-be brides, and be given as gifts to those in the bridal party.
*This collection it was so well received I was instructed to create two supplemental collections, including the groom's party, and charms for the bride herself.
