How to wear our Fibre Collection
To celebrate the launch of our new Fibre Collection of adjustable rope necklaces and bracelets, we have created a series of stop motion videos and stills to explore how different people are wearing our pieces. The Alice Made This team have been busy photographing and speaking to seven inspiring women about why they love what they do and how they balance work with play, echoing the bold, versatile and fun nature of our new collection. Stay tuned next week for part two!
Ingrid de Vries. MULO
Ingrid owns a footwear company called MULO with her husband Tobias. They create a range of slip-on shoes for men, from a modern interpretation of the Espadrille to refined, shearling-lined Slippers. The designs are simple, understated and easy to wear. They can be dressed up or down, and mixed to suit personal styles. Ingrid spent 10 years in New York working with the best luxury brands in the world.
What do you love about what you do?
Bringing an idea to life and creating something of value. When customers return to buy multiple pairs in different colours and styles it feels like we are doing something right!
How do you balance work and play? Do you find it hard to balance the two?
The two have always been intertwined. Work does not end when I leave the studio, and play does not end the second I sit at my desk, but I find the blend inspiring and energising.
What do you like about AMT?
It epitomises modern design - the pieces are strong, considered, and well-crafted
Isabel de Galleani. Travel Expert.
Isabel is Region Manager for Africa and The Middle East at Original Travel, leading a fantastic team and designing bespoke experimental travel.
What do you love about what you do?
It’s fulfilling to hear clients so enthused by their moving and memorable experiences. I enjoy managing a team of vibrant passionate experts and talking about the places we love every day. I love visiting new and exciting locations, meeting the people behind local enterprises and - of course – being out on safari with the incredible wildlife and open skies. It's pretty cool that my job involves talking about African wildlife for a huge chunk of the day!
How do you balance work and play? Do you find it hard to balance the two?
An elaborate childcare combination, an engaged employer, and a flexible husband. (Not ranked in order – in case your reading this, Ed). And some wine.
What do you like about AMT?
The stylish simplicity smartens up any outfit – I wear either the Mia or Esme every day. My Oscar bracelet rarely leaves my wrist (and I have never liked wearing bracelets prior to owning an AMT bracelet) and the Grace usually comes out for any formal event at work or social. It makes me feel good, and the weight and finish to the jewellery demonstrate real quality. I'm a huge fan, and super excited about the newest rope collection, love a bit of neon!
Ivy Paulo. Model.
Reflecting her simple yet refined style, model Ivy Paulo wears our Arden blackout and gold necklace and bracelet. The solid black cord works beautifully with her monochrome palette, creating an ideal look for autumn.
