I was browsing through a magazine in a waiting room recently and a phrase caught my eye. In describing her wardrobe a woman used the term, “against a classic black palette” and I thought, “Yes! Yes!” That’s exactly how I go about dressing now that my days revolve around the Tikanchay silver jewelry collections. My wardrobe has become a backdrop for showcasing these treasures and black is often the color that does it justice. Now when I shop for clothing, I am concentrating not on patterns but on details such as texture and style: is this a soft knit or a crispy linen, a crew neck or mock turtleneck. And I’m reviewing in my mind the newest additions to our silver inventory: a new silver choker or a long handcrafted necklace, dangling pearl earrings or bright red huayruro posts, and how they will coordinate with the “palette” that my wardrobe has become. This relationship between the backdrop and the accentuated accessories is the art of fashion. How you do it is your own personal style, which reminds me of another relevant phrase: It’s all in the details.
