Consuelo Vanderbilt Costin's New Jewelry Collection 'Homage', Inspired by America's Royal Family

Consuelo Vanderbilt Costin hosted a launch party for her new jewelry collection called “Homage” with the support of friends including Avenue's Randi Schatz, Tracy Stern, Cassandra Seidenfeld, Nicole Noonan and Lindsay Stokes from TOWN Residential. I unfortunately had a scheduling conflict the evening of the launch party but was thrilled to receive a post recap from Consuelo's PR team.

I’ve considered Consuelo the epitome of style and grace ever since we met two years ago at the Raine Magazine soiree at the Pierre hotel. With a lineage of a Vanderbilt it’s quite natural that Consuelo launched her own collection of socialite worthy jewels.

The dazzling new line was inspired by the jewelry worn by five generations of Vanderbilt's, one of America's Royal Families. Consuelo Vanderbilt Costin developed a range of pearl and diamond fashion jewelry that is exclusively sold at HSN. A direct descendent of railroad tycoon, Cornelius Vanderbilt and Consuelo Vanderbilt, the Duchess of Marlborough, Consuelo appeared on air on December 21st to tell the historic and romantic stories behind the pieces.

The luxurious and sophisticated 24-piece collection was created after Consuelo inherited an engagement ring from her great-grandmother, Consuelo Vanderbilt Earl, which according to family lore belonged to the Duchess of Marlborough. That ring was the catalyst to the creation of the personally crafted ‘Homage” collection. The range includes pieces that reflect the historic jewelry worn by her family, and the contemporary reflections of styles Consuelo wore during important moments in her own life.

Consuelo, a lifestyle entrepreneur, is cousin to Gloria Vanderbilt and Anderson Cooper, and has had a successful career as a Billboard Recording Artist. In several pieces, you see an edgier design reflective of her personal style. The Tempest Ring and Cuff features a 'diamond' pave pattern in a zigzag style. The Society Earrings feature clusters of white pearls and was worn by Consuelo in her latest music video that was filmed at The Vanderbilt Museum in Long Island, the former home of her great, great grandfather, Willie K. Vanderbilt Jr.

Ranging in price from $29.95 to $199.95 the collection is now available on HSN.com.

Congratulations Consuelo on your stunning new jewelry collection. Hope to see you again soon! xx
