The launch party of Tiffany Paper Flowers by the American jeweller at the Museum of Contemporary Art at Loewen Road on August 29 saw the brand rolling out some of the Big Apple’s iconic symbols. Cue the life-sized Subway carriage, newspaper stands and Central Park benches — all swathed in the brand’s trademark shade of robin egg blue and, adorned with larger-than-life floral paper cutouts.
The minimalist and industrial-tinged Paper Flowers range will launch in stores in September, and comprises of abstract petals made of platinum that are held together with a pin. It’s also the most significant jewellery collection at Tiffany & Co. since 2009 and the first bijoux designed by new chief creative officer Reed Krakoff for the house.
