Is there any better way to start a stylish week off then with the super stylish Tina Chow? As I am certain you know, we have had an unsurpassed collection of Tina Chow's jewelry at RARE vintage which has been an enormous privilege as well as an enormous source of excitement for me personally and, of course, also for our clients.
Tina Chow could wear a grey cashmere sweater and black Kenzo pants, brand spanking new haute couture from the newly appointed designer for Chanel Karl Lagerfeld in 1983, vintage haute couture from Balenciaga, Vionnet, Poiret and Fortuny with such ease and casual chic that her unerring sense of style has made her one of the best dressed women of all time.
But she was not just a woman of style - she was a woman of substance - which I really think most super stylish women are. A true sense of style is found in women who love not just fashion but history and design.
This is one of my favorite photos of Tina Chow. She is wearing a Fortuny silk pleated gown with her own jewelry.

It has been erroneously published that she was wearing lucite (!) jewelry with her Fortuny gown but she is in fact wearing her own amazing crystal quartz cuff and bracelet and one of her spectacular bamboo wrapped Kyoto bracelets.
Tina Chow's sense of style is unique to her and it continues to inspire us... as Yves Saint Laurent said, "Fashion fades, style is eternal". Tina Chow is eternal...
I am always looking for rare and pristine examples of Tina Chow's incredible jewelry. Please feel free to contact me at info@rarevintage.com or phone 212.581.7273 if you have a piece or collection you would like to part with.
