Judith Ripka returns as the Official Jewelry Designer of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Smashbox Studios for the 9th consecutive season, premiering a new collection of exquisite 18k gold and diamond jewelry.
Judith Ripka is, as well, excited to host a week-long fashion exhibit onsite in the VIP Green Room with fashion photographer Melvin Sokolsky entitled Bubbles and Baubles.
A select group of Sokolsky's exclusive Bubble Series photographs will be paired and displayed with complimenting choice Ripka jewels.
Additionally, the famed jewelrydesigner is proud to present the first ever Judith Ripka Visionary Award to Mr. Sokolsky for his many years of ground-breaking talent in the world of fashion photography.
In support of LA Fashion Week's "green friendly" theme, both a Sokolsky photograph and a piece of Judith Ripka jewelry will be auctioned on eBay with proceeds benefiting the green charity Earth Pledge.
Judith Ripka's onsite presence returns with Ripka's signature mini-boutique in Smashbox's VIP Green Room, the exclusive location reserved for celebrities, editors and VIPs only.
Along with the Bubbles and Baubles exhibit, her new collections will be available throughout the week for editors to preview and celebrities to borrow, so that they are bejeweled in Ripka when they cross the catwalk and rock the red-carpet.
