Anna Dello Russo Is Selling Tons of Vintage Jewelry on Vestiaire Collective—Starting at Just $100

"There's a new era starting, not just for me, but in general," she says "Everything has changed and I totally agree with this new recycling, rethinking, and redoing fashion-making something [feel new] again I'm recycling my clothing to see how it can have another life.

I love clothing so much, and of course I love fashion, but I don't want to be dying in my clothes!" she says, laughing Much of it is oversize, glitzy costume jewelry; some of it is vintage; and it's all been worn and loved by Dello Russo "Jewelry personalizes your style and can [give] new life to an outfit.

For me, really big, chunky, sexy jewels are my signature, because they can change your attitude and the proportion of your clothes." Included in the sale is a gold necklace by Balenciaga for $250; a vintage crocodile collar for $205; a classic pearl, chain, and ribbon Chanel necklace for $820; and many pieces coming in at under $200 Like her previous sales, the prices are surprisingly approachable, because to Dello Russo, it's not about turning a profit "I kept some pieces for myself, of course, but [my jewelry] is more minimalist now.

I have a lot of tiny, tiny earrings, but I'm changing all the time Next season, there's a big trend for glamour and '80s style, which I love, so I'll be back in my mood That's why I like to keep an archive-I change my mood every season, every moment.

But every few years, you need to edit and keep just the right pieces." "It can be too much You cannot believe how many clothes I had I was working for 20 years, and it took me three years just to select the clothes.

It was a long process But I did it, and now I feel more focused, because I just need the right things around me, and I want my legacy to the new generation this message of recycling and re-wearing your clothes." She also plans her purchases ahead-way ahead-so she can determine which ones are worth the six-month wait "I'm really selective now, so I don't buy anything that is not iconic.

Daily wear isn't really my priority, because I want to buy important, iconic pieces-the ones I'll look at in 10 years and still love." On her list for next season? "I cannot wait to wear a Celine dress, the green glam one-with jewelry!". . Source
