In Italy there has always been a tradition of making jewelery from
semi-precious metal, as copies or prototypes of fine jewelery.
Fashion Jewelery: Made in Italy moves chronologically through the
last 100 years, with pieces from the beginning of the 20th century,
through to the years spent under fascist rule, when jewelery had to
be strictly made with local material such as wood, cork, straw,
venetian glass and coral. The 50s and 60s allowed for the very
first big names in fashion jewelery to arise: Giuliano Fratti, Emma
Caimi Pellini, Sharra Pagano, Ugo Correani, Coppola e Toppo,
Luciana de Reutern, Canesi, Ornella...The book reserves a special
place for an important phenomenon that took place in Milan at the
end of the 1970s - "Made in Italy" - when Italian fashion entered
(and dominated) the international scene, and Italian designers such
as Armani, Versace, Ferre, and later on, Moschino and Prada found
incredible success all over the world. Throughout the 80s and 90s,
and well into the year 2000 further names in fashion jewellery were
pushed to the fore: Carlo Zini, Angela Caputi, Maria Calderara,
Giorgio Vigna, Fabio Cammarata, Emilio Cressoni, Robert Tomas,
Irene Moret, Silvia Beccaria, among others. The final section of
the book is devoted to new talents, selecting ten designers whose
jewels are particularly interesting and innovative. Famous houses
that the jewellery was made for include: Bijoux Bozart, Biki, Carlo
Zini, Chanel, Chloe, Coppla E Toppo, Edoardo Saronni, Emilio Pucci,
Etro, Fiorucci, Flos Ad Florem, Gianfranco Ferre, Giorgio Armani,
Giuliano Fratti, Irene Galitzine, Karl Lagerfeld, Luciana De
Reutern, Marni, Missoni, Misterfox, Moschino, Prada, Roberto
Capucci, Schiaparelli, Sharra Pagano, Ugo Correani, Unger,
Valentino, Versace.
