Description
No one on the planet can have missed the mass hysteria created over Bridgerton, Shonda Rhimes' Netflix show. If you’re one of the rare people who haven’t watched it, I urge you to do so, it's a sort of new Gossip Girl meets Jane Austen, offering visually compelling escapism set around a fictional high society in London’s Regency era, dancing at ostentatious balls and dances, sipping tea in empire-waist gowns, and reading gossip about the night before, written by an anonymous columnist named Lady Whistledown. Now, there was a craving for jewellery during the Regency era, fuelled in part by the Prince Regent’s insatiable appetite for jewels and the endless whirl of social events. The spectacular costumes in Bridgerton include royalty-worthy gems, which have set the sales of early 19th century style jewellery spiking - due to my guests today. I’m delighted to welcome Ellen Mirojnick, the legendary Emmy-winning American costume designer, and Lorenzo Mancianti, jewellery and prop designer, who was in the wardrobe department knocking up tiaras by the dozen.
