Tweed may have originated as a versatile workman s material in the Scottish countryside, but on the runways, a legacy French house is most closely associated with the weave. Equal parts sporting and smart, it has given life to tidy Chanel skirt suits, classic quilted handbags, and elegant block heels. This season the brand's Jewelry Creation Studio director, Patrice Leguereau, makes it glitter in a 64-piece haute joaillerie collection, which includes gridded diamond earrings and brooches with the curvature of looped fabric. This collar necklace, a lattice of yellow gold set with diamonds and rubies, serves as the centerpiece: Its detachable lion head transforms into a brooch, while its 10.17-carat pear-shaped diamond can be worn as a ring. How's that for versatility?
