More DescriptionForeword by Dr. Joyce F. Brown, president of the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT). In 1977 Judith Ripka launched her first 18-karat gold collection. With her organic eye for design and keen colour interpretation, she is a major force in American accessories design. Using only the finest diamonds, coloured precious gemstones, and pearls, Judith Ripka Companies, Inc., has evolved into a mega million dollar business with corporate headquarters in New York City and stores across the country. Oprah is a fan, so is Hillary Clinton, and its rare not to spot a Ripka piece at a red-carpet event. As likely to appear on celebrities such as Miley Cyrus and Kate Hudson as on the girl next door thanks to her successful line for QVC, Judith has conquered women with her high-style statement jewellery. Here, Judith shares the story of her success - from her humble beginnings designing from home to building a global brand. Beautifully illustrated with personal photographs and magnificent pieces from her collection, JUDITH RIPKA by Judith is a treat for jewellery lovers and magpies everywhere.
