Headlining accessories is the debut of John Varvatos' new jewelry collection. Cufflinks, rings and bracelets are handcrafted from sterling silver, black onyx and brandish diamonds. Necklaces feature weighty, eye-catching trinkets, like the famed Venetian doctor mask. Heraldic style medallions, some sprouting a plume of feathers, adorn jacket lapels and ties. A refined, updated silver safety pin closes knits and vests. Double-twisted intricate chains link around boots, while chain belts link up with a fleur-de-lys design, a recurring ornamentation throughout the collection.
Gators – washed leather buttoned ankle covers positioned over the shoes – accentuate the silhouette's subtle flared and shortened leg. Dressy shoes include buckled demi boots, washed canvas and leather styles with studded details and an oiled suede boot with a tucked detail on the top. Bags have masculine shapes. Canvas and leather totes and a modern briefcase are framed with buckles and straps. Another punchy model is tooled from gleaming silver crocodile-embossed leather.
