Brand ambassador Charlotte Casiraghi celebrates the many contrasting facets of the modern woman with a new Montblanc jewellery capsule collection. Inspired by the concept of the attraction of opposites, bangles, rings and necklaces in different materials and contrasting colours create infinite style combinations. One, two or three different bangles of varying shapes and textures are drawn to each other by hidden magnets evolving a simple elegant daytime look into a bold evening statement. By attaching, detaching and stacking pieces in diverse materials and volumes, Les Aimants by Charlotte Casiraghi is a feminine collection that allows women to create and play with versatile and contemporary styles.
“The original inspiration for this collection was the legendary writer, muse and 1920s style icon Nancy Cunard, who was known for making stylish and bold statements by wearing stacked bangles of different sizes and textures on both arms,” explains Charlotte Casiraghi. “She was the epitome of the modern woman in her day, a successful author and activist, as well as a daring style pioneer. Les Aimants by Charlotte Casiraghi is a bold and chic collection for a woman today who knows what she wants and expresses herself in new ways to have fun and indulge by personalizing her look by pairing opposites to achieve her own brand of elegance.”
The colours and textures of the jewels play with the power of contrasts, from white and black, light and shadows, to ice and rocks. Each contrast evokes the Mont Blanc, the pinnacle of European mountains, as well as the design codes of Montblanc, ultimate expression of modern luxury. When opposites attract, the combinations are endless. The sensual shape of broad bangles in black and marbled precious resin contrast with transparent resin encasing an intricate mountain pattern evoking the ice of a glacier, and paired with either of four narrow bangles in satined or polished silver with engraved facets, and in black or marbled precious resin. The collection includes two large rings in black precious resin and sterling silver combination, or in an all sterling silver variation. A long pendant necklace combines a black precious resin circular ring on the end of a rope silver chain, a modern and feminine creation imagined for the woman seeking to create a minimalist effect.
“With her sophisticated sense of style, her independent spirit and her self-assured attitude to life, Charlotte embodies the qualities of the modern Montblanc woman,” says Zaim Kamal, Creative Director Montblanc. “When we embarked on this collaboration, the goal was not to create a traditional collection but to re-imagine what role jewellery could play. Charlotte soon realized that by playing with opposites, customizable creations would give women new ways to unapologetically express their own distinctive attributes, crafting looks that are magnetic in every way.”
Simplicity, purity and understated luxury are the defining qualities of Les Aimants by Charlotte Casiraghi, a collection that takes personalization and self-expression to new heights.
The new Montblanc collection will make its international debut at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2018.
