On 17th, June, London Jewellery Fashion Week ended. Although it was held under a tough economy environment, it still attracted lots of visitors. Maybe following highlights could explain why it was still so popular.
First, a series of champagne receptions were hosted by the Green Street Jewellers Association in partnership with Jaguar, Champagne Lanson, Clydesdale Bank and the NSPCC. Second, a glamorous Salon Privé Jewellery Fashion Show staged at Goldsmith’s Hall featuring jewellery by David Marshall, Boodles, Dower & Hall and Elisabeth Gage. Third, the Hatton Garden Street Festival was attended by over 6,000 people and offered jewellery making demonstrations, open studios, talks, activities for kids, music and food stalls. Fourth, a series of seminars at Goldsmiths’ Hall were attended by over 250 people and featuring informative talks were held by jewellery expert Joanna Hardy and pioneering jewellers Leo DeVroomen and Shaun Leane. Fifth, the contemporary jewellery exhibition, Treasure, was launched which attracted approximately 5,000 people to a diverse exhibition of over 90 jewellers along with seminars and workshops at Victoria House on Southampton Row in Central London.
If you want to participate in these attractive events, you should look forward to the 2011 London Jewellery Fashion Week.
