2025 couture pink awards

Marissa Collections’ PINK Awards highlighted the best of Couture, from the joyful, spinning enamel and sapphire Gone Fishing necklace by Selim Mouzannar to Circa 1700’s masterful vintage creations, praised for creativity and craftsmanship. Dezso by Sara Beltran’s edgy shell motifs were everywhere, while Shihara Yutai’s gemstone-and-pearl strands earned the “Hot Girl Pearl” title for their modern elegance. Azlee’s good luck elephant charm stood out as the most requested, blending Spanish and Sicilian influences with symbolism of strength and wisdom. Runner-ups included Sevan’s beautifully articulated brooches and Lisa Nik’s juicy rainbow-hued bangles, perfect for collecting and stacking.
