Jewelry designer Catherine Michiels introduces ‘Voyage’, a short documentary on her travels in Venice and Paris. The film is a cinematic look into the world of Catherine Michiels and provides clues as to the inspiration for the designs she creates for her collection.
“I receive emails from people all over the world offering their thoughts and comments on the pieces they’ve acquired from my collection. This short documentary is my thank you to them. I wanted to share the sights that inspire me.”
‘Voyage’ follows Catherine through the labyrinth of Venice where the architecture has inspired themes recognizable in her designs. The film then takes the viewer to Paris as Catherine introduces her line to the staff at L’Eclaireur, which has become the exclusive outlet for Catherine Michiels Fine Custom Jewelry in France. In addition to offering the collection, L’Eclaireur will host private consultations with Catherine for their customers for custom and personal orders.
The film also introduces a new feature of Catherine’s website; that of carnet d'adresse.
“Even before I published my magazine Moderne for distribution in Paris, London and New York, people were always asking me for the best addresses around the world to visit or shop. I still get these requests, so I thought I would create a listing on the website. Since ‘Voyage’ reveals Venice and Paris, I’ve included some of my favorite addresses in those cities as liner notes on the DVD.”
Fans of Catherine’s creations include Angelina Jolie, Halle Berry, Kate Bosworth, Sandra Bullock, Ellen DeGeneres, Macy Gray, Goldie Hawn, Kate Hudson, Helen Hunt, Sharon Stone, Uma Thurman and Naomi Watts. Takashimaya has joined Saks online, Ylang 23 and Fred Segal in Santa Monica among the world-wide sales locations for the Catherine Michiels collection.
‘Voyage’ has a running time of six minutes and can be viewed at: www.catherinemichiels.com
Bon voyage!
