The Darker Side of Fashion Accessories

NEW YORK, NY - Forget last season's light and airy styles; this season it's time to move over to the dark side of fashion. Though Halloween is behind us, this is not just a trend to be kept to the one night a year.

While the word 'goth' may strike fear in many of us, bringing a touch of the gothic into your fall/winter wardrobe can still be feminine and elegant. There's no need to take the extreme route; introducing a selection of striking, statement making pieces into your accessories collection is the easiest way to transition effortlessly into fall and to inject a touch of dark into your wardrobe.

Though entirely different in style, the fall/winter 2011 collections from Julia deVille and Young&ng share the same dark, mysterious, sophisticated aesthetic, both leaning towards the darker side of glamour and proving that it is, in fact, possible to look glamorous and bad-ass at the same time.

Julia deVille's hauntingly beautiful jewelry collection, hugely popular in Australia and her native New Zealand, has just been introduced to the US.

Dark, ethereal and otherworldly, the collection of bracelets, necklaces, rings, brooches, earrings and fob chains is simultaneously light and dark, beautiful and eerie, edgy and wearable.

Young&ng is the couture headpiece and jewelry line born from designer Michelle Ng's desire to rethink the way we look at accessories and to redefine the fine line between art and fashion.

The ethereal pieces are made of beautiful, yet unconventional, materials such as gunmetal and antique gold combined with beads, feathers, and shattered glass.
