The best jewellery at Paris Couture Week, from Dior’s pearl crowns to Fendi’s supersized earrings
Haute Couture Week spring/summer 2021 kicked off its four-day digital offering on Monday with Schiaparelli, the surrealist high fashion house founded by Elsa Schiaparelli in 1927, now helmed by Daniel Roseberry. Roseberry created Lady Gaga’s custom-made inauguration outfit, complete with oversized golden dove brooch as an international symbol of peace, but the bird didn’t make its way into his third couture collection for the house.
Instead, it was a celebration of the human form: mini dresses with moulded abs, boots capped with golden toes and, jewellery-wise, gilded body parts that became objects of adornment. Almost every one of the 25 looks included a shoulder-dusting pair of doorknocker earrings: some took the form of ears themselves, pierced with vast gold hoops.
