From the Closet of: Jenny Cipoletti

Label: Escada

Era: 1980S

About the Item:

Found at a vintage shop in Florence, these bold Escada clip-ons were an instant purchase for Jenny Cipoletti. "I found those in Florence at a vintage store and snagged them up so quick," she says. Though the earrings' sculptural gold design leans more 1980s than her usual aesthetic, Jenny was won over immediately. "Gold is definitely my metal of choice when it comes to jewelry," she says. "I was just really drawn to these. And also just the texture of them—I thought it was super unique."

About the Label:

Founded in Munich in 1978 by Margaretha and Wolfgang Ley, Escada became synonymous with unapologetic glamour. The house built its reputation on bold color, statement jewelry, and polished eveningwear that embraced confidence and femininity in equal measure. Vintage Escada costume jewelry, in particular, remains prized for its oversized proportions and unmistakably glamorous spirit.
