With more than 100 photographs, Gianfranco Ferré: Under Another Light looks at the costume jewelry of Italian designer Gianfranco Ferré (1944–2007). Ferré himself said of this somewhat neglected side of his oeuvre: “intended as a decorative element of clothing, ‘my’ jewelry becomes a tool for its interpretation, for a subjective and individual reading of the garment. If clothing is an object—the ‘thing is worn’—then jewelry is the expression of the way, of ‘how it’s worn.’”
Amid the diversity of objects presented in this volume, there emerges a connection between bijoux and clothing collections, which Ferré always conceived in parallel with each other, and tied to the inescapable reference point, the human body—giving preference to its key parts, from the neck to the wrists and the waist.
