EMPHASIS BY JEWELLERY

Focal Points For Brooches

LONDON.

Whether it is expensive or mere costume jewellery in gilt and rhinestones, the important thing about jewellery this winter is where you put it, says a Reuter correspondent Brooches and clips are used to focus attention where intended: the hat the set of a shoulder, the wide belt on a flattened midriff, a dropped waist, a moulded hip-line or at calf level to direct attention to an unusual cuffed hem on a long black velvet sheath evening dress. Down - to - earth costume jewellery collections have featured recently plenty of glitter, dyed pearls and necklaces of enormous beads covered with fabric. Paris House, an associate member of the Incorporated Society of London's Fashion Designers, has these beads, covered in taffeta, chiffon, jersey, cashmere or any other fabric designed. They come in a single row interspersed with gold filigree or made into a three-row necklace consisting of one row of covered beads between two rows of pearls linked with gold. Wider Wedding Rings

Evening wedding rings are getting wider. One of the latest models featured by the connoisseur, Richard Ogden, is three-quarters of an inch wide—a three-in-one effort with yellow gold in the middle and two white gold rings on the outside. Both Ogden and Garrard favour double-duty hair or brooch ornaments for the evening. While Garrard favours a new miniature tiara which breaks into clips if required, Ogden goes back to the Victorian age and comes up with a diamond butterfly with ruby eyes. Rubies are more expensive today than diamonds.
