Jewellery lover Sophia Loren
She did not buy anything in the boutique, but the managers gave her a bronze Eiffel tower gift.
When we hear the phrase “icon of style”, we imagine Audrey Hepburn, Sophia Loren, Marilyn Monroe, and Catherine Deneuve. They have conquered the hearts of millions of men and women. Their beauty and talent have earned them the status of style icons and made them trendsetters.
Legendary Italian film star inspired fashion and jewelry designers to create exclusive collections. One of them was Italian jewelry house Damiani, that dedicated to her charming beauty and elegance collection in 2006. The designers used pink and white color gold. The collection kept balance between contemporary fashion (it symbolizes the pink gold) and the familiar classics (white gold). The collection included necklaces, rings, brooches, pendants and two kinds of earrings. All ornaments were designed in one style – circles, swirls of pink gold, decorated with flowing cascade of clear classic cut round diamond.

For the presentation of the eponymous collection, Loren chose necklace Haute Joaillerie class made of white gold and transparent diamonds weighing 81 carats. Noteworthy, the necklace was created in the single copy specifically for the presentation.
