The ontemporary jewelry universe often finds its most powerful expression when design becomes a language of emotion and artistic intention. The collections Babado, Chuva, Bruma, and Corpo e Alma from Anna Prata International reflect this philosophy through a refined dialogue between movement, structure, and symbolism. During New York Fashion Week, fashion editor Laine Furtado, editor of Linha Aberta magazine and the Fashion Travel Reporter blog, presented selected pieces from these collections, demonstrating how jewelry can transcend ornamentation and become a central part of global fashion storytelling.
Babado Collection
The Babado Collection introduces an expressive and dynamic visual language inspired by couture ruffles and the movement of fabric. The Portuguese word “babado,” which refers to frilled or flounced details, is translated into jewelry through sculptural forms that evoke rhythm, volume, and motion.
One of the defining elements of this collection is its earrings, which transform the idea of fabric folds into metallic structures. Their layered and curved shapes create the sensation of movement, reflecting light from multiple angles and giving the pieces a striking yet elegant presence.
Although sculptural in character, the Babado earrings maintain wearable proportions. Their flowing lines frame the face in a sophisticated way, making them ideal statement accessories that complement both contemporary tailoring and more fluid silhouettes.
Chuva Collection — Anna Prata + Leo Romano
The Chuva Collection, created in collaboration with architect and designer Leo Romano, explores the poetic relationship between jewelry, architecture, and natural movement. Inspired by the rhythm and delicacy of falling rain, the collection translates droplets and organic structures into sculptural jewelry forms.
The necklaces in the Chuva collection stand out for their architectural elegance. Delicate metallic lines rise and curve like suspended raindrops, creating compositions that balance structure and fluidity. The designs explore negative space and subtle movement, giving the pieces a sense of lightness and contemporary sophistication.
These necklaces function almost like wearable sculptures, resting gracefully along the neckline while capturing the rhythm of rainfall in polished metal. The pieces embody a balance between Brazilian creative identity and modern design language.
Corpo e Alma Collection
The Corpo e Alma Collection explores a more symbolic dimension of jewelry design. Translating as “Body and Soul,” the collection reflects the harmony between physical form and emotional expression.
The necklaces in this collection embody that philosophy through organic shapes that appear to flow naturally along the body. Their sculptural curves suggest continuity and connection, creating pieces that feel both intimate and visually striking.
Rather than focusing solely on decorative impact, these designs emphasize meaning and presence. The necklaces become expressive elements that balance structure and fluidity, reflecting the duality suggested by the collection’s name.
Together, the Babado, Chuva, Bruma, and Corpo e Alma collections represent a contemporary vision of luxury jewelry where conceptual depth meets wearable art. The pieces are not simply accessories but elements of identity and storytelling. Through organic geometry, reflective surfaces, and poetic symbolism, the collections illustrate a modern understanding of elegance.
In a global fashion environment that increasingly values authenticity and meaning, these creations demonstrate that true luxury lies in emotional resonance and artistic intention. By presenting these pieces during New York Fashion Week, Laine Furtado highlighted the international relevance of Brazilian contemporary jewelry design and its capacity to dialogue with high fashion on the world stage.
