Fashion watch used to be a derogatory term in the world of horology. That, thankfully, is not so much the case these days as watchmakers expand their ideas of who and what they welcome to their highly complicated universes.
The Swiss house of Audemars Piguet, an early adopter of this stance, is no stranger to cross-disciplinary collaborations. Its latest: a partnership with Australian couturière Tamara Ralph on a limited-edition Royal Oak Concept Flying Tourbillon.
It is fortuitous timing for Ralph, who recently launched a couture label under her name. “We did a private collection for our top clients in January [2023] at Paris couture week,” recounts Ralph of her new start. It was a call to arms for loyalists of the designer’s modern, feminine aesthetic. Celebrities responded quickly. Halle Berry, Kate Hudson, Naomi Campbell and Queen Rania of Jordan are just some of the big names who wore Tamara Ralph Couture to A-list functions such as the Oscars, Cannes Film Festival and the coronation of King Charles III.
