Fall Fashion 2012: Titanium Elegance

One of the color pantones featured for the Fall Fashion 2012 is titanium. Titanium is a color known for its versatile elegance. Pairing titanium accessories with your wardrobe is a color trend that won’t go wrong, according to fashion experts from this year’s New York Fashion Week.

  

We made this three-strand necklace, a variety of our “Imelda” collection, with a titanium dominant theme. This necklace is made of seed beads, and is expertly hand-stitched and braided by skilled craftswomen. The best thing about this necklace is that it can easily be paired with this season’s fashion must-haves.

Bastet Necklace Paired with Top Suggestions

The design on this hand-stitched necklace is inspired by the Egyptian collar known as “wesekh”. Instead of using tubes in horizontal layers, we used our core technique of hand-stitching seed beads into a black felt cloth. We used multiple colors such as; gold, black, gray, blue, and green on the patterns for this collection of necklaces. Each of these necklaces is meticulously hand-stitched by skilled artisans, as can be seen on the tightness of the beads stitching on black felt cloth. We made use of a rhodium chain as an enclosure to finish off the necklaces.

According to Egyptian mythology, the “wesekh” collar was the chosen adornment of the gods and pharaohs, thus we named the collection after the ancient Egyptian feline goddess, Bastet. Here some suggestions on some outfits that you can pair your “Bastet” necklace with.
