The pieces from the Hyper Haute jewelry collection are all statement makers. The bold collection consists of functional door-locking devices, utility chains and car tow hooks revamped to become the ultimate in chic jewelry. The idea to use such odd materials was born from concern for budget during the recent recession. As is usually the case, this state of panic birthed a great idea in the Hyper Haute collection.
Although most pieces ooze enough edginess to make Lady Gaga proud, the collection includes more subtle, demure pieces as well. Designer Erica Dunk infuses her artistic perspective into everything she creates, even if it seems minimalist at first. Hyper Haute has pieces ranging from mid-to-high pricing points, making this collection available to a large audience.
