Perlée: a symbol of luxury

The French jewellery collection bearing this name, composed of small beads or pearls, bears witness to the heritage of the jewellery house and its savoir-faire. The Van Cleef & Arpels Perlée collection prefers the ornamentation of jewels in three or five rows, to enhance the three-dimensional effect. It is as though the rare beads of the pearls were in bloom. The luxurious Perlée collection consists of necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings. As for the name itself, the word Perlée when translated from French is an adjective that signifies pearly or bead-like, precisely characterising this collection. 

Glints of luxury playing with light

The gold beads are shaped one by one by the jeweller, then hand-polished in several phases to gain a perfectly smooth surface, allowing for the play of light to begin. Luminosity is an important aesthetic element in Van Cleef & Arpels jewels, as a celebratory ode to the unique city of Paris where the jewels are made, and which is rightfully called the City of Light.

Where did the brand’s history start?

The luxury company Van Cleef & Arpels was unconventionally founded on the basis of marriage – or love, if you prefer a more romantic legend. During the tumultuous boom of industry, science and trade at the end of the 19th Century, specifically in 1896, gemstone cutter Alfred Van Cleef married Estelle Arpels. Ten years later, Alfred got together with his brothers-in-law Charles and Julien to found the company and the first boutique in Paris at Place Vendôme. Their collective work crowned with elegance and refined taste was always guided by a passion for beauty and perfection.

Balmain is going through a boom!

When French fashion designer Olivier Rousteing took over the fashion house in 2011 from veteran Christophe Decarnine, whose broken health did not allow him to keep his position of creative director, very few people suspected that Balmain would experience such a boom in the following years. Olivier Rousteing proved that he deserves the director’s chair and the S/S 2018 is, just like the previous ones, luxurious!

Exciting rock show on the catwalk

Tight leather trousers, fitted blazers, trendy biker jackets, long slinky shirts and coats, shoes with metal toes, chains, rivets and studs on belts and garments. The luxurious S/S 2018 collection is a thrilling rock showcase. Black and white play the leading role, complemented by camel, red, blue and light beige.

From rock concert to safari!

The young and talented Olivier Rousteing did not just stick to rock elements in creating his collection, but also played with other interesting styles. There are navy stripes (in fact he wore a sweater of this type at the fashion show), beige safari jackets and suede booties in the same colour, which are an interesting counterpoint to hard rock. There are also garments suitable for highly formal events – suits, luxurious tuxedos, shiny lapels and highly elegant trousers with pleats.

Balmain: For the love of America

Olivier Rousteing is a proud Frenchman. He declares that he is proud of his native France, but just as readily admits his love for America in public. In the past, he stated that he would like America to have as capable a president as France’s Emmanuel Macron, whom he is a great supporter of. Therefore, he included certain symbolic American elements in the collection, such as the American flag or pendant of the United States of America.

What do you think of the S/S 2018 collection? Will you wear it to a rock concert and stand out like a real rock star, or would you prefer to go on safari?
