NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sam Edelman will extend his eponymous brand’s reach with the launch of a new jewelry collection this fall. The iconic footwear and accessory designer has partnered with the Designer Jewelry Division of Almar Sales for the line, which will debut at major department stores and online beginning in September 2013.
The Sam Edelman jewelry collection reflects Sam’s pulse on fashion, offering modern, unique, iconic and edgy designs that make a statement. The collection, priced from $45-$250, features over 120 styles composed of necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings in dark metal and gold tone finishes. Designed with exclusive cut stones and faceted metal details, the line offers must-have pieces for every occasion and the perfect standout accent to both daytime and evening looks.
“As President of the newly formed designer jewelry division of Almar Sales, Sam Edelman was my first choice to launch this new venture,” said Mara Perlmutter. “The Sam Edelman brand offers a unique and understandable global fashion vision and was a natural fit to expand his classic chic and cutting edge esthetic into an iconic fashion jewelry collection.”
The debut of the jewelry collection comes following the launch of successful outerwear and handbag collections in 2012, as well as the opening of the Sam Edelman flagship store in Soho and a boutique in East Hampton.
“We’ve experienced a lot of exciting growth over the last 12 months,” said Edelman. “Now, with the addition of a jewelry line, we can continue our evolution into a complete lifestyle brand. My ultimate goal is to see our ‘Sam Girl’ dressed head to toe in our designs. The jewelry collection is the next natural extension into making that a reality.”
