New York, NY (PRWEB) February 24, 2015 -- Gabriel & Co. and iconic fashion designer, Carmen Marc Valvo, are evolving their fine jewelry collaboration, the aptly named Carmen Marc Valvo by Gabriel & Co. collection.

The two brands are proudly expanding their first ever men’s collections pairing Shadowplay diamond encrusted shirt studs and cufflinks with Carmen Marc Valvos’ bespoke men’s ready-to-wear fashions.
Carmen Marc Valvo’s Fall 2015 collection is a nod to1950’s nostalgia with tartan plaids, pleated cocktail dresses and skirts, paperboy and aviator pants, all reminiscent of school girls and boys in a more glamorous and less complicated era. The Carmen Marc Valvo by Gabriel & Co. jewelry collection compliments the ready-to-wear line with stackable bangles handmade with sterling silver, stainless steel and diamonds, long layer necklaces and drop earrings made with black mother of pearl and white agate. The more luxurious pieces were paired with both women’s and men’s looks on the runway, and include sterling silver collar link studs and shirt studs bejeweled with Gabriel & Co.’s Shadowplay diamonds which boast subtle hues of pale yellow, white and grey tones.
