Vita Fede Jewellery at LIFEwithBIRD
Popular fashion boutique LIFEwithBIRD now presents Vita Fede jewellery in it's stores, the first time this iconic jewellery brand has been in Australia.
The Italian made, Los Angeles based label is hand shaped using a fusion of Swarovski crystals, silver and gold. Celebrity fans include Angelina Jolie, Kristen Stewart, Victoria Beckham, Olivia Palmero, Jennifer Lawrence and Anne Hathaway. These pieces have been hand picked by Bridget and Nick from LIFEwithBIRD during an overseas buying trip in February.
Vita Fede itself has announced the debut of The Edge, a collection of luxury accessories born in Los Angeles, made in Italy, inspired by the world.
Vita Fede unveils an expanded collection of handcrafted jewelry and accessories inspired by art, architecture and culture from the past, present and future. These elements combine to create the VF aesthetic: Timeless luxury with a feminine modern twist. Designer Cynthia Sakai’s commitment to make each collection a natural progression from the last results in a highly edited line that builds on the success the brand has enjoyed since launching in 2007.
Vita Fede translates to ‘Life’ and ‘Faith,’ two things that connect people everywhere, and, like VF designs, continue to evolve without losing the essential elements that define them. For designer Cynthia Sakai, this means taking inspiration from life all around her to create jewels that transition seamlessly from season to season and trend to trend.
With this collection, the design house expands on their signature contemporary aesthetic, incorporating traditional Italian hand craftsmanship and profound attention to detail.
Necklaces,bracelets, rings and belts have a distinctive style that is intricate yet uncomplicated, architectural yet organic.
Born in Los Angeles to Japanese parents, Cynthia describes the Vita Fede look as “a fusion of Asian, American and European culture that represents an elevated aesthetic, a lifestyle and a point of view that are universal.” Cynthia has always believed that one great accessory can make an outfit, and her jewellery is designed to be mixed, matched and layered to suit each person’s individual style.
Cynthia continues to explore innovative new ways of using raw materials in her creations. Every piece is designed with both form and function in mind, resulting in substantial, sophisticated, wearable works of art.
Handcrafted in Italy using brass, natural stones, Swarovski crystals, sterling silver and 24K gold, these luxurious elements give life to the signature Vita Fede style.
The brand has been featured in high fashion magazines around the globe and distribution now includes Europe, Asia, South America, Canada and the Middle East. Vita Fede has formed quite an impressive following, including a long list of high profile celebrities and fashion taste makers who are drawn to the VF look: Timeless luxury infused with a modern point of view.
