Copenhagen-based jewellery designer Sophie Bille Brahe breaks the mould with her understated and exceptionally elegant pieces. She talks to sheena khemaney
SOPHIE BILLE BRAHE has been around since 2011, but if you’re not yet familiar with this fine hewellery designer, then you need to be, pronto. Early last year, Bille Brahe got her big break when she teamed up with Sacai – a hip fashion label launched by Japanese designer Chitose Abe – on a 10-piece capsule collection of chic earrings made from yellow gold, diamonds and pearls: what a combination!
The collection, which was a huge success, earned this down-to-earth designer a new following of savvy online shoppers and street style stars. Pieces from the collaboration, (they were snapped up in an instant) were stocked at trendy shopping destinations such as Net-APorter.com and Lane Crawford Hong Kong.
As we approach a brand-new season, Bille Brahe’s fine jewellery line for autumn/winter 2017 carries forward the designer’s minimalist and elegant-but-edgy aesthetic. When paired with casual wear, her versatile jewellery pieces still stand out. Just take a look at her official portrait shot (on the opposite page) where she rocks her rings and stunning Croissant de Lune earring.
