In case you don't know him, Robert Lee Morris is a sculptor and jewelry designer. His work has appeared on the cover of Vogue and in dozens of issues. He's also collaborated with
Calvin Klein,
Karl Lagerfeld,
Anne Klein,
Donna Karan, and
Michael Kors
and won a CFDA award. According to rumors, he's got another
collaboration in the works with Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. Hmm, two of
these are not like the others! Yes, the Olsens have an upmarket
clothing line (Elizabeth and James), but still, we're kind of surprised
because they haven't really dabbled in accessories. Nonetheless, WWD reports:
According to sources, the trio has been hard at work for
the past few months on a collection of jewelry dubbed Robert Lee Morris
for Elizabeth and James. Apparently the twins long have been fans of
Morris and pored over his vast archives in at his headquarters in
downtown Manhattan. The line of silver and brass dagger necklaces,
amorphous knuckle rings and edgy earrings will bow in the next few
months.
Dagger necklaces? Knuckle rings? The Olsens may be wee things, but now we're a bit scared.
