For New York Men's Fashion Week, Vanessa Lianne had the privilege of collaborating with the brand Cadet for its spring/summer '17 collection runway show.

Cadet is New York's top Brooklyn-based menswear brand, known for its military inspired collection focusing on precision, quality, clean lines and innovative fabrications. Cadet founders Raul Arevalo and Brad Schmidt are CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Finalists 2015, Design Entrepreneur NYC Winners 2015 and International Woolmark Prize US Nominee 2015/16.

The new SS17 collection is inspired by Rome and believe us when we say it is spectacular. It was an honor to collaborate with these very talented designers, and Vanessa Lianne Jewelry was the perfect compliment to their new collection.

For the show, models wore Zephyr Necklaces, Tavion Necklaces, Tavion Rings, Custom Tavion chokers and custom Tavion wrap bracelets. It was beyond inspiring (and a lot of fun) styling the models and getting to be part of such a beautiful show!

Here are some images from the show and behind the scenes. This collection doesn't come out until Spring 2017, but you can shop the jewelry right off the runway now!

Alden came by the VL studio and interviewed Vanessa for this wonderful post about our commitment to sustainability,  "Vanessa Lianne jewelry is for stylish chicks who care".  Thanks Ecocult!
