“One World” necklace BY MARY MARGRILL highlights world, faith and religion for “Faith In Motion” exhibition

WHO/WHAT:

Mary Margrill, an artist, renowned jewelry designer, and philosopher who's work is sublimely steeped in spirituality has accepted an invitation from the prestigious Minneapolis Institution of Arts to exhibit her diamond encrusted “One World” necklace as part of the “Faith In Motion” gallery event. On display until July 31, 2013, the “One World” necklace will add an ethereal feel and altruistic message. Margrill creates a delicate reflection on some of the world's most recognized religions through iconic symbols and enchanting diamonds. The defining character on this whimsical yet powerful piece is the peace-sign clasp -- a metaphor that easily speaks for itself.

Documenting the development of explorers, merchants, colonists, pilgrims and missionaries that introduced their cultures and beliefs throughout the world via carrying small artifacts is the foundation of “Faith in Motion.” Portable art played a major role in the spread of religions throughout the world. "Faith in Motion," champions this very concept.

Mary Margrill's handmade necklace unites symbols of seven world faiths in 14K white gold and 2CT total weight of white diamonds. The “One World” necklace is valued between $16,000 and $20,000 USD and is available for purchase upon request by request through www.marymargrill.com.

ABOUT FILOMENA FERNANDEZ:

Filomena Fernandez, a woman’s apparel brand founded by Maritza Fernandez, is a collection of garments inspired by Latin American and Asian cultures. The injection of cultural influences including deepened femininity and minimalism results in a women’s wear line that is at once practical and wearable. A fresh approach to the reinvention of everyday basics is enveloped in a distinctively laid-back yet modern look. Filomena Fernandez’s first outpost is located in Coral Gables, Florida.

The presentation of originality and flair is created with the utmost attention to detail to make a woman feel confident and refined. Each garment is carefully crafted to ensure comfort, durability and most importantly, ease in maintenance. Filomena Fernandez features the fundamentals of fashion with loose-fitting knits, wide-leg trousers, slouchy shirts and whimsical peasant-style blouses. “I believe that extra room in garments positively works in two fashion techniques,” explains Fernandez. “One, looser clothing produces a thought of ‘what’s under there’ from onlookers. It’s sexy to make one wonder. Secondly, a generous fit provides great elegance – with the way a garment flows to how it molds the body in a way without completely embracing it.”

The decidedly minimalistic designs – clean lines fluidly captured throughout each collection – are inspired by Fernandez’s four-year tenure in Tokyo and the consumption of the Asian aesthetic, rich culture and purity of life. All fabrics are selected for its appeal, comfort and preservation in mind. Cotton, jersey, silk and microfibers are the foundation for garments, while lace, fine gauze, chiffon, tencel and tulle are frequented forFilomena Fernandez’s most elegant pieces.

Enzoani Timeless Commercial

Enzoani is scheduled to release Timeless, a viral commercial, debuting the 2013 Enzoani Collections on December 10^th. The video will be hosted on Enzoani’s website and is shot with the same technology used in films such as The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo and Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit.

 

“The video follows a young woman through several stages of her life from the early stages of budding femininity, culminating into the elegance of an Enzoani bride,” says Enzoani VP of Marketing Justin Nguyen. Her transition is complemented with a musical score produced by composer Giona Ostinelli, known for his work in projects such as Road to Perdition, The Campaign and NBC’S show Community.

The commercial is entirely shot in Ultra HD 4K RED Epic technology. Enzoani is one of the first in the bridal industry to use this technology for commercial use. Nguyen explains, “We pride ourselves for our impeccable quality and fast designs…it was only natural that we would produce Timeless with the highest quality of film technology available.”

To celebrate the release of Timeless, Enzoani will be hosting a month long contest running from December 10, 2012 to January 10, 2013 where one randomly selected winner will get to choose a dream gown up to $3,000 value.
