Audemars PIguet’s collaboration with Ralph & Russo presents a meeting of like minds

While the collaboration might surprise some (one is famed for edgy timepieces while the other, dreamy gowns), the brands have much in common to make them kindred spirits: Known to guard their independence fiercely, the two family-owned companies place creativity and craftsmanship at the heart of all they do—resulting in a set of visual images that meld horology and fashion into a stunning whole.

Bagaar LOVES
... The 101 Bangle, Jaeger-LeCoultre’s new high jewellery timepiece featuring the Maison’s remarkable Calibre 101. Weighing barely a gram, the minuscule hand-wound movement measures 14mm long and less than 5mm wide (it’s the world’s smallest mechanical movement). Here, it takes centre stage on an elegant bangle of graduating diamonds and gold.

GOLDEN GLOW
Chaumet’s Bee My Love should be a serious contender for your next jewellery buy and here’s why: The range of petite designs, available in white gold, rose gold and yellow gold with diamond options, not only stacks and layers beautifully with other baubles, but also adds visual interest and texture, thanks to its distinctive hexagonal motif inspired by honeycomb—as shown here by South Korean actress and brand ambassador Song Hye Kyo.

Friends of the Maison, Olivia Palermo and Shiva Safai have also weighed in with a series of images that show how they wear the collection—with multiple pieces piled on, of course.
