How to style a lapel pin
I plan on using my blazers and suits for the rest of my life, and I want to make sure that when I find a lapel pin to freshen them up or layer my style, I pin it correctly so as not to damage them.
My Personal Style Collection
After studying Applied & Engineering Physics at Cornell, working with Japan, and spending a decade with software startups, I feel like this collection is somehow a perfect reflection of my design journey.
I cut my teeth designing award-winning jewelry for discerning women at Pharaoun, but at the same time my passion for traditional menswear has never wavered.
I have purchased vintage hat pins and cufflinks for years, but as my designs evolved I found myself imagining a world that met my expectations of elegance.
From the world of high jewelry to your lapel
I have always loved the idea of a lapel pin, but they are impossible. Most brooches are too big, and most vintage hat pins are too boring.
So I started adapting my award-winning designs to wear myself.
First, I made my designs smaller. I think the red-carpet looks are amazing, they just aren’t for me. To me, a discrete but exquisite piece makes a better impression than a design that screams at you.
Second, I needed a way to attach the pins to my blazers and suits without damaging them. I love my clothing too much, and I plan on wearing these jackets for the rest of my life. So, I created a long pin style that could be placed directly through my (hand-stitched if possible) lapel buttonhole, and then secured on the back of my lapel invisibly. Even though I use the pin to pierce the fabric on the back of the lapel to keep it perfectly in place, it usually finds its way between the warp and weft, and I can easily tease it out if I ever need to.
Even I was amazed at the look. Each of my jackets felt like it was completely fresh again, and like a new watch band for my favorite watch, it gave me new life too!
I'm so happy you discovered Elegance Found.
