In this issue:

  • Green Fashion at the Cannes Film Festival

  • Giorgio Armani’s Apulia Regenerative Cotton Project

  • Angelina Jolie’s sustainable fashion company

  • The Quilters of Gee’s Bend go to London

May was one of the most sparkly months in ages. We had the Met Gala in New York, the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute's annual black-tie fundraiser, to kick off its latest blockbuster exhibition, Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty, with loads of important jewelry on the red carpet. A few days later, there was the coronation of King Charles III at Westminster Abbey, with some serious sparkle on display, most notably the King and Queen's crowns. And then Cannes Film Festival, a two-week-long glittering parade on the Riviera. 

To talk about all this shimmer and shine, and how it’s sustainable–because, yes, it is–I invited leading jewelry expert Carol Woolton on the Green Dream podcast. Carol has written several books on the subject, including The New Stone Age, and coming this fall, Dolce & Gabbana High Jewelry, published by Rizzoli. And she has a delightful podcast, called If Jewels Could Talk, on which she hosts owners of important jewelry collections, and talks about the history of famous gems. This fall, a book inspired by the podcast, also called If Jewels Could Talk, will be published by Simon & Schuster.
