24 MISS MILLY Despite the difficulties of online jewellery design and buying, British jewellery and accessories brand Miss Milly has come up with a stunning collection for Spring and Summer in a beautiful palette of happy colours. And the adventures in colour continue with some brave and bold combinations, mixing pastel shades with brighter tones to great effect. As yellow comes into the forefront in both interiors and fashion, Miss Milly has prettily introduced a gentle lemon to several jewellery lines. The softness of the yellow contrasts with bold turquoise and vibrant royal blue, and blends with pale green and lilac ice cream pastels. Owner Sarah Watmore said, “We have had some dreamy colours to work with for this season. It’s been fun playing with the palette and materials to see which ones work best with different substrates. The end result being that usually a mix of resin and hand-painting creates the best results and we can’t wait to share them with retailers.” The new jewellery collection combines previous season bestsellers with new designs and works in harmony with a scarf collection that covers almost as much of the colour spectrum. Sarah explains, “The previous habit of the fashion elite reinventing the colour wheel every season has been declining and this process has sped up with the pandemic and our desire for greater sustainability. Savvy consumers know what colours they like to wear and ‘colours of the season’ now have more longevity. Coral, which was the colour of Spring/Summer 2020 is still in Pantone’s top 10 for 2022, as is aqua.” Not ordered from Miss Milly before? There is a low £100 minimum and no minimum order quantities.
