Joy, Love, and Lucite

We’re thrilled to report that the collaboration between Ben-Amun and Joy Cioci, which culminated in the presentation of Joy Cioci’s Spring/Summer 2012 collection on Friday night of New York Fashion Week, was a head to toe success. Not only did the Ben-Amun Lucite jewelry perfectly compliment the collection’s punchy colored romance, but it worked in unison with the models’ Lucite tipped manicures.

While the Lucite nails are creating quite a buzz in the beauty scene—one of a kind lace stenciling per nail, and almond shaped Lucite tips, of course they’re noteworthy—we were particularly impressed by how, with the help of perfectly placed accessories, each look came together to achieve Joy’s vision of “a free spirited woman in pursuit of love.”

The collection showed intricate detailing, a saturated, unexpected color palette, and whimsical silhouettes, that with the addition of Ben-Amun’s Lucite jewelry, left viewers with the satisfying feeling that vibrancy does not have to mean the renunciation of delicacy, and that if dressed in the perfect pairing of Joy Cioci and Ben-Amun, seduction can in fact be quite ladylike.
