In her talk, Alexandra will be discussing product design, more specifically, the extravagant jewellery pieces created to accompany the flamboyant outfits seen in the 1920s and 1930s. From rings to excessive headpieces and necklaces, the discussion will focus on how these pieces were made and what stylistically motivated the designers of the time.
