Archival Jewels Bring Life to \u2018Frankenstein\u2019"},"content":{"rendered":"

New York\u2014Tiffany & Co. has announced that it is bringing a curation of rare archival masterworks and contemporary high jewelry to film for the first time, as several pieces are set to appear in the new \u201cFrankenstein\u201d movie.<\/p>\n

The nearly 200-year-old brand has opened its archives to provide storied jewelry, accessories, and silver objects, as well as contemporary high jewelry and original designs for its collaboration with the film\u2019s costume department.<\/p>\n

Many of the historic jewels have never been worn in modern times, the jeweler said.<\/p>\n

The new film by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Guillermo del Toro, set to be released later this year, is an adaptation of Mary Shelley\u2019s classic 19th century horror novel by the same name.<\/p>\n

With the retelling set in the 1850s, the inclusion of Tiffany & Co. archival designs and historical objects brings authenticity and depth to the narrative, said the brand.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrankenstein continues Tiffany & Co.\u2019s legacy of contributing to the world of cinema\u2014not simply as adornment, but as a storytelling layer, helping bring unforgettable characters and screen moments to life through the enduring language of Tiffany jewelry,\u201d said Christopher Young, vice president and creative director of Tiffany Patrimony and Global Creative Visual Merchandising at Tiffany & Co.

The on-screen collection features 27 pieces of jewelry and objects, including necklaces, bracelets, rings, earrings, brooches, pendants, sterling silver objects, a hair comb, and a pocket watch.<\/p>\n

Of those, 10 are historic jewels, six are archival silver objects, six are contemporary creations, and five are original designs crafted for the film.<\/p>\n

The combination of archival pieces, contemporary high jewelry, and newly crafted designs enhance the film\u2019s themes of innovation, duality, and transformation, said Tiffany & Co.<\/p>\n

Highlights include pieces designed by former Tiffany Art Jewelry Director Julia Munson and her successor Meta Overbeck under the direction of Louis Comfort Tiffany, the brand\u2019s pioneering art director who is celebrated for his bold experimentation and reverence for nature.<\/p>\n

For the film, Costume Designer Kate Hawley combined bespoke textile designs inspired by organic forms with meticulously curated jewels to ensure that each element helps express each character\u2019s inner world.<\/p>\n

Nearly all of the Tiffany & Co. jewelry is worn by Mia Goth, who plays Elizabeth Lavenza. Charles Dance, who plays Leopold Frankenstein, wears the pocket watch.<\/p>\n

Hawley also designed original jewelry for the film that was crafted by Tiffany & Co. in the Tiffany High Jewelry workshop in New York City.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving Tiffany & Co. as a collaborator was an honor that was deeply moving for my entire crew. It was a recognition of our craft and added a new artistic dimension,\u201d said Hawley.<\/p>\n

\u201cTiffany\u2019s jewelry became its own creative contribution, similar to hair design, makeup, wardrobe, sets, and props, and was integral to completing the design space. It was not just an accessory but an essential element specifically to Elizabeth\u2019s character, enhancing the color palette and overall interpretation of her world.\u201d<\/p>\n

By bringing its high jewelry expertise to this reimagining of a literary classic, Tiffany & Co. said it reaffirms its place at the epicenter of art, history, and culture.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrankenstein\u201d stars Goth, Dance, Oscar Isacc, Jacob Elordi, and Christopher Waltz.<\/p>\n

It is set to be released in select theaters on Oct. 17 and globally on Netflix on Nov. 7.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New York\u2014Tiffany & Co. has announced that it is bringing a curation of rare archival masterworks and contemporary…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":22391,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12775],"tags":[16548,16233,16545,16546,16549,16553,16552,16554,16556,16557,4955,16555,15855,16547,12767,16544,16551,16550],"class_list":["post-22390","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tiffany-co","tag-archival-tiffany-co-in-frankenstein-movie","tag-frankenstein","tag-frankenstein-movie","tag-frankenstein-netflix","tag-frankenstein-tiffany-co-jewelry","tag-guillermo-del-toro-frankenstein","tag-guillermo-del-toro-movies","tag-julia-munson","tag-kate-hawley","tag-kate-hawley-frankenstein","tag-lvmh","tag-meta-overbeck","tag-mia-goth","tag-mia-goth-wears-archival-tiffany-co","tag-tiffany-co","tag-tiffany-co-archives","tag-what-is-mia-goth-wearing-in-frankenstein-movie","tag-what-jewelry-is-in-new-frankenstein-movies"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22390","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22390"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22390\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/22391"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22390"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22390"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/france\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22390"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
