From Runway to Driveway

August 13th, 2012 | Fashion, Not really shopping | 0 Comments

The days of apathetic aesthetics in favor of products that simply function are over. The trend now is to have it all – style, function and an affordable price. This is true for the new Ford Fusion. “Simply put, Fusion is a fashion statement, so it’s no surprise the two worlds merge so effortlessly,” says Anthony Prozzi, Ford senior interior designer and former designer for Donna Karan. Atlanta designers are taking note, too. Mark Edge, founder and CEO of Mark Edge Jewelry, creates one-of-a-kind accessories in a deceptively simple style that is both earthy yet elegant. Like the 2013 Fusion, Edge embraces sustainability in an impressive way. He uses recycled metals for his Eco Vintage line of earrings and necklaces. The designer speaks to the practice of reusing materials without sacrificing quality or style.
