Corinne Guirgis — November 10, 2011 — Eco
Tribal is back this season and these exquisite accessories from up-and-coming fashion line Orphalese are proof of just that.
At just 20 years old, creator Tyne Garvey is showing incredible promise as a jewelry designer with her fashion-forward outlook, which marries vintage elegance with modern flair. Capturing hip in a nutshell with every thread of a feather, her attention to detail and commitment to uniqueness make for a collection that is truly one-of-a-kind.
What makes Garvey’s designs so distinctive is her drive to create natural-looking pieces using entirely natural materials. Tyne will often travel to native reserves to collect feathers and fur that cannot be found elsewhere, and that would otherwise go to waste. She incorporates much of her free-spirit philosophy into her art every step of the way from collecting materials to conceptualizing and design.
Environmentally friendly, cruelty-free and beautiful beyond the point of description, each piece makes a statement that promises to take any outfit from bland to bold. Her commitment is not to just keep her wearers looking beautiful, but to keep the world beautiful too.
