Mikimoto Redefines Cultured Pearls With A Youthful Take
The icon of timeless style is making a comeback
December 17, 2018
This was created by Harper’s BAZAAR Singapore for Mikimoto
“Pearls are always appropriate,” Jackie Onassis once famously said of the gleaming orbs that are synonymous with elegance and sophistication. It’s the go-to jewellery of many style icons, both real and fictional – from Grace Kelly and Princess Diana, to Carrie Bradshaw and Holly Golightly – thanks to a versatility that allows it to put the perfect finishing touch to looks that range from feminine to punk.
Twirl a long strand around your wrist for a statement bracelet or wear them tight as a choker paired with a denim skirt for extra attitude. These lustrous globes are making a comeback in the chicest ways, and Mikimoto has just the right piece for you, no matter the occasion.
The renowned Japanese jeweler, famed for giving the world its first cultured pearl, has given the timeless designs a youthful twist and cool-girl edge, redefining all expectations and pre-conceived notions of the classic orb. Regardless of age, style and occasion, Mikimoto has got you covered with its exquisite offering – with a generous sprinkling of sparkling diamonds thrown in, if you so desire.
