Kenneth Jay Lane
Kenneth Jay Lane's super-sparkly, glamorous jewelry has made him the king of costume couture. From bold necklaces to bright earrings and chunky bracelets, Kenneth Jay Lane's eye-catching, elegant gems are beloved by Hollywood and Park Avenue alike. Kenneth Jay Lane was a mainstay of '60s high society and a personal friend of Warhol, Capote, and Onassis. With a career that spans some 40 years, his tasteful but fun designs have been worn by celebrities ranging from Audrey Hepburn to Elizabeth Taylor; from Madonna to the Olsen twins. Barbara Bush famously wore a three-strand faux-pearl Kenneth Jay Lane necklace to her husband's inaugural ball; many of the designer’s vintage pieces are considered collectibles and sold in auctions at Christie's and Sotheby's.
