Tierra Whack has collaborated with Banter by Piercing Pagoda for a collection of expressive jewelry that explores authenticity and being true to oneself. Designed in cooperation with Malyia McNaughton from the Black in Jewelry Coalition, the range embodies what jewelry and accessorizing mean to Tierra Whack. The collection comprises a pair of bold ‘Wiggity Whack’ earrings, a ‘Music Note’ bracelet, and a ‘Whack’ necklace that spells out the artist’s last name among other designs.
The collection marks Whack’s first collection with the brand as Creative Director, displaying her versatility and one-of-a-kind taste. “My fans have always been a great source of inspiration. Like me, they’re all about celebrating creativity. I’m thrilled to now turn my attention toward creating jewelry that brings all our shared passions to life. I can’t think of a stronger partner to do that with than Banter, who helps people express their own unique style every day," said Tierra Whack.
The Tierra Whack x Banter by Piercing Pagoda collection debuts July 14 on the Banter website.
