When thinking of DANNIJO, the first thing that comes to mind is sparkles. Lots of them. Draped on wrists, fingers, ears, and necks in an unending cascade of glam. DANNIJO’s Fall/Winter 2013 collection was no different. This time, the sister design team of Danielle and Jodie Snyder was inspired by Elizabeth Taylor and the notion of vanity. The collection is meant to put the glamour back in the every day–high end jewels you can wear with a t-shirt and jeans as an added glitz, perhaps so you never forget the extra flair you have when you get all dolled up. A silver studded cuff encrusted with a rainbow of jewels, a rosary necklace dripping with bejeweled mirrors (there’s that aforementioned vanity concept), earrings that swirl like spiked suns, a pendant of brightly colored stones that spread across the chest like wings: all demand the eye of the beholder. 

At the chic Jane Hotel in Manhattan’s West Village, models wore minimal yet radiant makeup with a bold lip, all by NARS, and chic knotted buns supported by LUXHAIRWOW’s Pony Fall Extension. The result was a high-style presentation in the Jane’s legendary ballroom. Followers of DANNIJO have grown to expect nothing less from the sisters.
