Glamorous jewellery shines at White House Correspondents’ Dinner, Dior launches mini movies for new collection, Modern jewellery range catches Rihanna’s eye

Dior sure knows how to create hype for the launch of a new jewellery range. The French fashion house has unveiled an animated short film series – otherwise known as a swanky advertisement – ahead of the release of its latest collection, Rose des Vents. The campaign centres on the four gemstones used in the jewellery line and is already making headlines for its ingenuity.  

Meanwhile, jewellery designer Jennifer Fisher discusses why a laid-back twist on fine jewellery and having an eye for what women really want is contributing to her success. With Rihanna, Uma Thurman and Prince among those who have worn her pieces, she is probably onto something.
