Simple yet complicated, the beautiful body jewellery collection by New York-based [Bliss Lau](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monique-lhuilliers) hugs the female form and drapes elegantly over whatever piece of clothing they adorn. A graduate of [Parsons School of Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-fashion-course), Lau uses solid brass plated chain with various finishes and hand-stitched leather to create these organic necklaces.

Shown in the main picture, the ‘[Diamond Dress](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emi-jay-blind-box)’ was, “inspired by the cables on the Brooklyn Bridge” in New York City. The sexy piece draped over a simple dress is edgy, but totally wearable.

Bliss Lau also designs a leather handbag line inspired by everything from architecture to fortune cookies, and a gorgeous collection of belts.
