Tanya Taylor SS14 featuring SHOUROUK

Tanya Taylor (Fashion Designer) and SHOUROUK collaborated for Tanya Taylor's Spring/Summer 2014 collection at New York Fashion Week. 

Parisian designer Shourouk Rhaiem is a favorite at sophiescloset.com. Her use of bright colors and embroidery with contrasting materials like Swarovski crystals, metal sequins, silk, and industrial elements to create luxurious pieces of jewelry teamed perfectly with Tanya Taylor's fresh, young and bright printed designs.  

We can't wait to see what comes next from the talented SHOUROUK!

New York Fashion Week: FROW Focus

Recently we saw the celebs and supermodels out in force for the fashion event of the season - New York Fashion Week. As always, the fashionista’s filled the front row in their finest attire, so we thought we’d take a closer look at the gorgeous gems and glitzy jewels that adorned the FROW.

Statement Necklaces

The ever-glamourous Miroslava Duma secured her style-setter status by wearing one of her trademark statement necklaces to sit front row at Theyskens’ Theory F/W 2013.

MIROSLAVA DUMA's Jewellery at Sophie's Closet Dubai

Miroslava Duma always seems to get it right, her street styling and risk taking aesthetic has been noticed worldwide. We can't stop thinking about the Chanel pearl headpiece she wore at Paris fashion week last year.

Dauphine of New York, Pearl and Glass headpiece

AED 1,655, (US) $ 450

Dauphines of New York creates the most fun, stylish and luxurious statement hair pieces perfect for the fashion forward. Always worn best with a centre parting, these headpieces suit every face shape. 

Dannijo Victor Crystal Necklace 

AED 1,580 (US) $ 430

We spy the Dannijo Victor Crystal Necklace amongst a few others around Miroslava Duma's neck. If you cant choose one layer them on.

Shourouk Baraka Bracelets

Blue Baraka Samovar Crystal Bracelet, AED 750, (US) $ 204

Baraka Salome Bracelet, AED 830, (US) $ 226

Jewellery and accessories worn by Miroslava Duma always ‘make’ her outfit. We can't get enough of her style, she wears accessories like no one else, there is no wonder she is the Russian "It Girl". Two of our favorite jewelry designers Shourouk and Dannijo pieces are often seen stacked on her wrists.

Dannijo, Delfine Neon Green Bracelet

AED 1,280 , (US) $348 

We say Miroslava should try out these Elizabeth Cole’s Navy Mohawk Earrings or Badgley Mischka’s Multi Bow Necklace.

Green with Envy

Emerald Green has been a definite favorite of the top design houses this season, featuring heavily on the runways of Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Stella McCartney and adorned by the most glamorous celebrities on the red carpet and also street style.

This bright, sophisticated and versatile color will be sure to feature in your wardrobe this season.

 

Gucci S/S 2013
Melinda Maria earrings
 
Emerald Green was featured in Gucci's Spring Summer 2013 runway show, in extreme block color form. Gucci's creative director Frida Giannini has been a great advocator of jewel tones in her most recent collections. Creating romantic and eccentric looks, using block color with a variety of materials such as fur, silk, chiffon and leather. This bold outfit would be perfect teamed with the beautiful Melinda Maria earrings.

Stella McCartney S/S 2013
LeiVanKash Parsa Pyramid Bracelets

Stella McCartney stepped away from her signature style of sharp tailoring and sexy femininity and incorporated a more masculine and casual take on block coloring. To match the more casual approach, we would suggest teaming the look with a bunch of LeiVanKash Parsa Pyramid bracelets.

Anna Della Russo
Shourouk Aplolonia Emerald Necklace
Dannijo Green Cecil earrings

No-one quite does excess like Anna Dello Russo. Every outfit the Vogue Japan editor creates, can only be described as a piece of art. Known for wearing radical runway pieces by day and never wearing an outfit twice, the over-the-top fashion icon is pictured here in a beautiful emerald green Dolce & Gabbana dress. To complete this statement look, we would either add the Shourouk Aplolonia Emerald Necklace or the Dannijo Green Cecil Earrings.

To see more beautiful Emerald pieces, head to our Green Glamour section featured at www.sophiescloset.com

Introducing SHOUROUK

 

Shourouk Rhaiem

Who wears Shourouk? The question is: Who doesn't? From the stylish wrists of Miroslava Duma to Anna Dello Russo's impossibly long neck, to supermodel Karlie Kloss in the pages of Vogue, to the iconic Sarah Jessica Parker.

Ever since Paris-based Shourouk Rhaiem established her label in 2007, it's been a mainstay in glossy magazine pages and celebrity accessory drawers. And for a reason, of course: Her colourful and glistening compositions are hard to resist. We are done resisting, and are happy to announce that Shourouk will be arriving to Sophie's Closet this month!

 

Shourouk F/W 2012

Having previously worked for Chloe, John Galliano, and Roberto Cavalli, high fashion and quality craftsmanship was already party of her design repertoire. As an avid traveller, Shourouk is inspired by her many journeys, collecting beautiful objects and placing them in her studio to spark her creativity.

 

Anna Dello Russo wearing a Shourouk necklace and earrings

The result is a fantastic mash-up of worldly inspirations, like vivid colours from Bollywood films and the opulence of Russian aristocracy.

 

Miroslava Duma wearing Shourouk bracelets

So beautiful, one can instantly glamourize a simple jean dress like Miroslava Duma's, just by adding a little Shourouk.

Especially when it comes to the bright statement necklaces that add that extra ooph! to any outfit.

 

Shourouk F/W 2012

One of our favourite pieces from this collection is the triple band ring. Genius!

We'll be posting the pieces on our online store as soon as they arrive, so keep an eye out. Don't let them get away!
