Forevermark diamonds sparkled on the New York Fashion Week runway at Bibhu Mohapatra’s Spring 2017 show. Bringing the best of fashion and diamonds together, Bibhu accessorized the 20 of the looks in his show with jewelry from his Forevermark Artemis™ collection, the designer’s first jewelry design collaboration with Forevermark, as well as other diamond pieces from Forevermark India.
Forevermark launched the Artemis™ collection this past spring with 21 pieces, and Bibhu’s Spring 2017 fashion show celebrates the expansion of the line with the addition of 21 new designs. Inspired by the sun, moon and stars, the Artemis™ collection took 18 months to come to life from the designer’s sketches to finished jewelry.
“Forevermark diamonds are of the highest quality of diamonds, they are responsibly sourced, and they truly signify an eternity of joy, commitment and promise. These attributes align right with the Bibhu Mohapatra brand DNA as well as the theme of Spring 2017 collection,” said Bibhu of his design collaboration with Forevermark. “The Artemis™ collection is that perfect balance of aesthetics and attitude. It represents tradition, it empowers, and it aligns perfectly with the muse of the season.”
Bibhu Mohapatra’s Spring 2017 collection symbolises optimism and positivity, and it is inspired by the muses of La Belle Époque; The Beautiful Era, a pre-war Parisian era, characterized by flourishing art and literature, optimism, prosperity and technological and cultural innovations.
“With this collection, I am trying to give long due credit to the many unnamed muses who inspired the world of arts and culture during this prolific Era,” said Bibhu. “Diamonds make fashion timeless! They make style evolve and live forever. This season I celebrate the optimistic and opulent times of the beautiful era and to me, beautiful Forevermark diamonds represent that same positive energy.”
The Indian born American based designer started showing at New York Fashion week in 2009. An expert craftsman, he has since graced the catwalk with refined collections, using his tailoring and fabric expertise to create sophisticated yet edgy looks.
The Artemis™ collection is currently available in Authorized Jewelers in India.
