Pearls of fashion
If Holly Golightly had been in Ginza instead of New York on a given morning, she might have been beside herself with jewelry lust in front of Japanese brand Tasaki's new flagship instead of that other T-named place.
Tasaki has been offering high-class pearl and diamond jewelry since 1954 and its recent updated image, with a modern flagship store and new collaborations with hip creators, makes it even more appealing.
Fashion designer Mihara Yasuhiro and German accessory designer Husam el Odeh have a rock'n'roll-inpsired Tasaki collection that includes a chain mini-dress and aggressively elegant barbed wire necklaces, while superstar stylist Tomoki Sukezane's cuff links use textured black pearls for the body of spiders that crawl across gold and silver webs.
