Press Release Summary: Vera Wang Love Knots collection for Wedgwood is now available at Ernest Jones, featuring designer wedding gifts from the world’s leading wedding gown designer

Press Release Body: Ernest Jones has announced that the Vera Wang Love Knots Collection for Wedgwood, featuring Vera Wang’s signature ‘bow’ motif, is now available online. Offering a range of designer wedding gifts, the Love Knots Collection consists of photo frames, candlesticks, vanity boxes, napkin rings and champagne flutes, all designed by leading wedding gown designer Vera Wang for English china company Wedgwood. The coming together of Vera Wang, Wedgwood and Ernest Jones offers a combination of fashion, tradition and excellence.

Vera Wang is one of the world’s foremost wedding dress and fashion designers and has a long history in the industry. She discovered her love of fashion while studying at the Sorbonne and her talent quickly became apparent as she became the youngest ever fashion editor at Vogue by the age of 23. Staying at Vogue for the next 16 years, she eventually left to join Ralph Lauren as Design Director.

Opening her first bridal salon in the prestigious Carlyle Hotel on Madison Avenue, she introduced a new style and modernity to wedding dress design. Vera Wang went on to win the coveted ‘Council of Fashion Designers of America; Women’s Wear Designer of the Year’ award in 2005 and has designed dresses for a long list of celebrities including Sharon Stone, Jennifer Lopez, Victoria Beckham, Uma Thurman and Mariah Carey.

Vera Wang gowns have also appeared in several Hollywood films and television series. Vera Wang herself made a cameo appearance in Ugly Betty, one of her gowns was worn by Buffy the Vampire Slayer and, most notably, Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) wears Vera Wang in the recent Hollywood blockbuster movie Sex And The City.

Founded in 1857 by Josiah Wedgwood and famous for its ceramics, Wedgwood is synonymous with classic style and opulence. Wedgwood has recently collaborated with leading designers such as Vera Wang and Kelly Hoppen to bring a modern and unique edge to their products, including the Vera Wang Love Knots wedding gift range now available at Ernest Jones.

The new Vera Wang Love Knots collection for Wedgwood features candle sticks, napkin rings, photo frames in a variety of sizes, champagne flutes and vanity boxes and is available from Ernest Jones.
