From a classic string of pearls to a unique medley of chunky coloured glass; from the dazzle of diamonds to the mysterious beauty of amber…every piece of jewellery has its place, its mood and its accompanying outfit. The fashion market today continues to illustrate its intrinsic relationship with accessories and their power to transform an outfit – to maximise the glamour or add a quirky sense of individuality to day-time style. The diverse range of materials of combinations used by Ambiance’s collections inspires us to explore the boundaries of unique style as never before…such that one single outfit can be intelligently transformed with a savvy use of a belt, scarf or necklace into something refreshingly different.
