LA-DI-DA

​

La-di-da brings baroque opulence into a contemporary, wearable form with a cheeky twist.

 

Traditionally, highly decorative motifs like the wooden ornaments used in this collection would be applied to interiors, architecture, or furniture rather than worn as jewellery. I wanted to transform these ornate elements into wearable artifacts—brooches! By doing so, I reimagined their purpose, turning them into personal adornments rather than static embellishments of space.

 

To balance the boldness of these architectural decorative forms, which I painted with bright colours, I incorporated a delicate pearl circle. The pearls nod to classic luxury, while the sculpted decorative piece keeps the design playful.
