The Touch Of Vicenza

Roberto Coin | Florence Song | Othniel Ting

The Touch Of Vicenza

Hailing from Vicenza in Italy, Roberto Coin is a world-renowned luxury jewellery brand, combining traditional Italian craftsmanship with modern sensibilities. After launching in 1996, they’ve quickly become a customer favorite, serving clients in up to 53 countries. They’ve made full use of their city’s resources, creating a one of a kind piece in every product they release. But this all started with their founder of the same name secretly implanting a Ruby into every piece of Jewellery, describing it as a “romantic gift to women”. Roberto Coin himself joins us on the show today, and tells us all about what the rubies signified, along with the rest of the brand’s collections. Next, Florence Song, Style Lead at Zalora, talks about how your grandma’s fashion sense goes trendy with chain and scarf prints.
