Former Philippine First Lady Imelda Marcos has just unveiled her very own jewelry line under The Imelda Collection in Manila.
Apparently, these are a concoction of scraps, finds from the flea market or castoffs from her old wardrobe and include earrings, necklaces, bracelets, brooches, pins, combs and even cuff links made from a combination of glass beads, gemstones and gold-plated chains.
According to Mrs Marcos, the idea for a jewellery collection came from her grandson, Martin “Borgy” Manotoc, who told her: “You are creating beautiful things like jewels from practically garbage.”
Reports have it that the brand is later expected to include clothing and shoes, with items also recycled directly from Mrs Marcos’ own outfits.
It is widely known that Mrs Marcos is a shoe aficionado who was once reputed to own more than 3,000 pairs of shoes.
