The walking fashion fantasy that is Daphne Guinness and her good friend and jewelry designer Shaun Leane have created a striking and innovative piece of "armor" in a collaboration of their talents entitled "Contra Mundum", Latin for "Against The World". A fitting title and my new favorite Latin saying. This 18 carat "armor" is made of hand crafted chain-mail and 5000 pave diamonds. The "glove", custom made to Daphne's arm, just might be the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. Photographer Nick Knight has captured the dazzling result of this brilliant collaboration...
Daphne Guinness and Shaun Leane:
Contra Mundum" is being exhibited and represented via Jay Jopling at the White Cube Gallery, London N1 and "Daphne Guinness on View" is at the Museum at FIT, NYC, September 16 to January 7.

"I dislike the idea of jewellery being like a price tag around someone's neck. It needs to be something else - and there is something extremely magical about armour."
