Some nice inventions too next to our spot in the FRESH section (devoted to young designers) with a special thumbs-up for BROKEN FAB, a small brand of original jewellery created by Swiss-born Fabienne Word. Since she was a little girl, she’s been creating beaded jewellery. Several years later, her friends and relatives are enthused by her work, and she decides to launch BROKEN FAB: XXL necklaces, earrings and bracelets in geometric shapes such as TRIANGLES, inspired by the world of music! Enough to make me happy, especially as the designer is really friendly!

        I am back at the trade show with my new computer (and best friend) to share a new discovery with you: STELLA PARDO… Yeah, I know that I always seem to rave about the designers I meet… but I really must say that young designers/brands are really the most welcoming… I know it’s normal, but it’s really nice to meet people who love sharing their passion… Stella Pardo is a very "human" brand…
