"Comme des Garcons has teamed up with Eliana Venier to produce necklaces which pay homage to our theme, “from mother with love”. Well known for making handmade, “one of a kind” contemporary jewellery, she aims to inspire people to discover that all objects can have extra life and a new function by re-using ordinary objects and materials. For "Love is Tender", she has created knitted, chain effect necklaces in bright, contrasting colours."
