"A Willesden Green Cabaret"...

Series titiled "A Willesden Green Cabaret"... shot by Tiffany "Tippy" Rose Porter of Old Hollywood - only this doll could place my jewels in exactly the right light!

You see, the first time I met Tippy, it was to bring some Harlow goodies to her shop; she was going to sell them; that was supposed to be it! Well, add talks of David Bowie [all who know me KNOW - obsessed!], Labyrinth, all things vintage & antique, Michael Jackson; it was so surreal - like meeting my long-lost twin! She loved my work, I loved hers; we took to each other instantly - a bit narcissistic, seeing as we're similar to the point of surrealism here - and a wonderful friendship/business relationship began... ever since she's been making a home for my jewels, hairpieces and pretty things where they're happy, healthy and placed in the most beautiful of settings. Here's a small segment of a wonderful shoot she did, featuring one of my favorite necklaces - it's simple yet for some reason, I love it much more than any other piece I've created and she did it justice...

"A Willesden Green Cabaret"

**The necklace featured is part of Harlow In Chains' "NuWave Glamour" Collection: Giant Antique Chandelier Crystal Drop w/Peridot Accent; solid, smooth Hematite Cabochon surrounded by channel-set rhinestones. Vintage Trifari gold-toned Links connect to another vintage silver rope chain by way of two 1940's vintage Square-cut Chandelier prisms [salvaged from a Czechoslovakian chandelier!]; long chain accents the back, or lays to the side of the neck ending w/a vintage Peridot Chandelier Octagon and completed with a solid 22kt Gold drop. [Accent piece shown to side in photos].

The necklace, by itself:

Interview with Harlow In Chains @ Emerging Fervour!!

Harlow in Chains Interview @ Emerging Fervour:

"We did a piece on Jeni Jaques and Harlow in Chains not too long ago; and we’ve gone one better and managed to get an interview with her. There are few designers who move me with their stories behind their reasons to become designers…Jeni Jaques from Harlow in Chains is one of the very few. Her answers to my questions are filled with so much passion and love that she would even inspire Gordon Brown to become a jewelery designer. This lady is incredible…take a peek at our interview with her:"

EF: "Jeni, we absolutely love your style... what inspires you to create these big, statement pieces?"

Jeni Jaques: "Thank you!! I’ve always loved art and creation in all forms: painting, illustration, sewing/fashion design & construction, writing, photography and in recent years constructing one-of-a-kind jewelry and accessories… I’ve also always had a love for older vintage and antique items and have been collecting those since I was a young child. I love the history, mystery and sense of wonder that each and every piece holds: ‘What kind of woman wore this brooch?’; ‘Was this locket a gift from a loved one?’; ‘Did it hold a special meaning?’; ‘What journey has this piece followed to end up in my hands, to use in part to create an entirely new piece?’ It’s mysterious and slightly haunting; I love that…"

Check out the rest of their amazing web-mag! These ladies have amazing taste and quite a bit to say! I know you'll enjoy it!

Fashion on The Roof: Runway Show @ Empire Hotel, NYC, UWS

November 23rd, 2009: Harlow In Chains & Lola's Rags came together once again to showcase our amazingly complementary lines on the rooftop of the Empire Hotel, on the Upper West Side, NYC. Funky beats, gorgeous models and of course, unique, one-of-a-kind jewels and hair accessories by Harlow In Chains and beautiful, vintage-inspired lingerie and evening wear by Lola's Rags!







The space was tremendous; like an indoor oasis and a turnout of 400+ *fabulous* people made the night absolutely amazing! The runway was about 60' in length and models had to turn corners, walk down stairs and pose for the 20+ photographers that were present to cover the event... the after-part was fantastic and the cocktails were just as fabulous!

the "Brooks Collection"....

Well, summer's here and we're all going places... events, openings, shows, parties, the beach, BBQs... the list goes on & on! In the meantime, Harlow's coming out with a new collection:
"the Brooks Collection"

*'Brooks Collection" fringe necklace w/rhinestone & pearl detail on vintage open-link chain in Ruby fringe*

Inspired by Louise Brooks and all the other women of the fabulous and over-the-top 'flapper' era, the collection focuses on fringe, sparkle and decadence. As always, no two pieces will be alike, and each piece is completely hand-sewn. Designed to accentuate what you're already wearing, these necklaces will almost appear as if they're part of the dress!! I'm also creating pieces that can be worn either draping down the front, or to drape down and sway across the back - depending on what you're wearing... a nice, open, scoop-back top or dress would look fierce with some fringe swaying back and forth. Incorporating antique elements such as a deco-era dress or shoe clip here, an antique locket there {and of course, what would this homage be without some pearls thrown in the mix?}, these pieces are most certainly created to make a statement! Brooches, bracelets and earrings will follow shortly!

**Custom pieces available!

**'Brooks Collection" fringe necklace w/deco-era rhinestone dress clips, Victorian steel-cut beaded shoe clip & rhinestone charm detail in Black fringe...


**'Brooks Collection" faux pearl and fringe necklace w/antique "B" initial piece, antique locket, Swarovski Crystal and vintage revolver charm in Ivory fringe...

♥

Some of these new pieces will be featured in the dynamic and swanky Pepper Pastor Salon in NYC! Located by the South Street Seaport, and with a long list of superstar clients and stylists, this amazing salon is the perfect home for my new collection! The vibe of this salon is best described as "Coco Chanel meets Tim Burton", and a superstar client happens to be the amazingly talented and multi-faceted Theo Kogan, formerly of the "Lunachicks"; now of "Theo and the Skyscrapers" and "Screen test". After next weekend, you should pay a visit, update you 'do and take a peek at the new collection!
