Meet The COUTURE 2015 Debutants:
It is almost here. The week that everyone has been working towards and looking forward to – Las Vegas Jewelry Week. I have already highlighted some fascinating brands from both JCK and COUTURE that I think are a must-see. Besides, I have given you an overview of a wide selection of brands that the US consultancy agency LUXE Intelligence will bring to JCK. I hope this will help you decide which of the jewellers you would like to see while you are in Vegas at the end of May.
Each year, both these exhibitions see many promising newcomers and I thought it would be a good idea to share with you a list that showcases Couture Debutantes. These designers have surely crafted something special to present at the show, which is celebrating an important date this year – its 20th anniversary. Here is my list of the Top Newcomers (names in alphabetical order). Be sure to check out their treasure trove at the exhibitions.
