4. Tin Cup Pearls
From Gucci to Oscar de la Renta to Chanel, pearls are back in a big way. Not that they ever really left. Traditional strands a la The Crown, piled-on layers like Coco Chanel, or embellishments added on edgy ankle boots like Jeffrey Campbell, pearls are everywhere and they’re being worn in so many unique and different ways! For Mother’s Day, we’ve chosen one of our favorite, versatile pearl styles to celebrate mom – Tin Cup Pearls.
This pearl style exploded in popularity after Rene Russo wore the original in the romantic comedy Tin Cup. Originally designed by Wendy Brigode, demand for the necklace skyrocketed and its design was echoed by jewelers everywhere. We believe the popularity of the style comes from the sophistication of pearls with the airy nonchalance of a chain. The result carries a classic flair, but allows flexibility for interpretation. They can be dressed up or down and are easily combined with other pieces to create unique looks.
