Giorgio Armani vintage costume jewelry
The famous Italian designer Giorgio Armani introduced his trademark in 1974. His jewelry displays elegance and quality. Rings, necklaces and bracelets are stylish and vibrant, gold and silver blends beautifully with the sparkle of gemstones and the texture of a material like wood or plastic.
The eighth decade of the 20th century is often called “the years of greed and satiety,” and indeed, during this period, representatives of the wealthiest strata were happy to spend money on luxury goods of expensive, exclusive brands.
The romantic style with an ethnic touch, so beloved in the 1970s, has been supplanted by clothes that fit the lifestyle of the business woman. Called the “Chanel of the 1980s”, Giorgio Armani perfectly guessed this need of the modern woman and offered her his bold jewelry design. So, jewelry became larger, catchy, reflecting the status of a woman. The 1980s working woman, in her archetypal guise, wanted jewelry that was practical, beautiful and comfortable to wear to fit her busy schedule. With the return of coats and jackets to fashion, rarely used in the 1970s brooches became popular. Large, catchy multi-colored earrings – clusters or dangling ones – were the best suited to modern short haircuts.
For the production of accessories, the brand’s craftsmen use sparkling crystals, light plexiglass, multi-colored beads, fine jewelry alloy or sparkling stones that often resemble marble. Armani chooses rich shades for women’s jewelry: in combination with expressive design, they will help to correctly place accents in any outfit.
