Robinson Pelham's '90s Summer Collection Unveiled for 30th Anniversary

Embrace the Past, Define the Future: Robinson Pelham's '96 Revival

Three Decades of Elegance: A Journey from Atelier to Global Brand

Tracing its origins back to a modest, bespoke workshop nestled within a Pimlico carriage house, Robinson Pelham has transcended its humble beginnings to become an internationally acclaimed jeweler. With a clientele spanning continents, the brand's evolution is a testament to its enduring vision and craftsmanship.

"Bold Since '96": Kicking Off the Anniversary Festivities

The year-long celebration of Robinson Pelham's anniversary, aptly titled "Bold Since '96," commences with the debut of the "Summer of '96" collection. This collection not only introduces innovative designs but also reimagines iconic pieces from the brand's archives, specifically those that first emerged in the 1990s.

The Vision Behind "Summer of '96": Confidence, Creativity, Individuality

Vanessa Chilton, a co-founder of Robinson Pelham alongside Kate Pelham Burn and Zoe Benyon, shares that the new collection and its associated campaign are a heartfelt homage to the unwavering spirit and dedication that has fueled their team's success. She describes the "Summer of '96" as a reflection of confidence, creativity, and an unyielding commitment to individual expression.

Capturing the Essence of a '90s Summer: The Mallorca Campaign

The visual narrative for the new collection, skillfully captured by photographer Buzz White in Mallorca, not only showcases the exquisite jewelry but also perfectly encapsulates the laid-back, nostalgic atmosphere of a 1990s summer. White, known for his collaborations with fashion luminaries like Mario Testino and Alasdair McLellan, has created a series of images that evoke simple, yet unforgettable, summer moments, from tranquil mornings to the enjoyment of balmy evenings.

Personal Style and Effortless Elegance: The Brand's Philosophy

While the campaign offers curated styling suggestions, Robinson Pelham encourages its patrons to trust their instincts and embrace pieces that resonate with their personal style, fostering an air of effortless sophistication. Chilton emphasizes that the "Summer of '96" collection empowers clients to narrate their own unique stories and perspectives through their chosen jewelry.

Innovative Designs and Archival Inspirations: The Heart of the Collection

The "Summer of '96" collection introduces an array of fresh designs, including vibrant enamel necklaces, exquisitely crafted diamond jewelry, and sculptural gold hoops. Notably, several beloved 1990s collections, such as Kinetic, have served as a wellspring of inspiration for these contemporary creations. Chilton reveals that for this anniversary collection, the Kinetic-inspired pieces are bolder and more substantial, featuring striking gemstones like emeralds, pink sapphires, and distinctive pie-cut diamonds.

Expanding the Celebration: Meteor, Treble, and Solstice Collections

In addition to "Summer of '96," Robinson Pelham's 30th-anniversary celebration extends to other modern collections, including Meteor, Treble, and Solstice. The Meteor collection continues to feature its signature baguette diamonds, offering a sense of understated luxury. Meanwhile, the Treble collection presents a bold, modern aesthetic for those who appreciate a statement earring look.
