JEWLERY DESIGN
Magda Parasidis is the Creative Director of Holy Harlot, an artist-made, limited-edition jewelry brand known for its couture snakeskin designs. Each piece is hand-made in the US by the artist using collage and gold leaf techniques. Parasidis studied Jewelry Design in Milan at the Istituto Europeo di Design, and has earned an identity as a style setting jewelry designer in NYC's design scene with collections for Gwen Stefani's L.A.M.B. and under her own label. As a one-time art historian at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Baltimore Museum of Art, Parasidis’s design aesthetic is in constant conversation with contemporary art&design. Before launching HOLY HARLOT in 2009, the native New Yorker consulted on various design projects, including a collection for Italian jewelry house Chimento, red carpet diamond jewelry for Vivid Collection, product development for Saks Fifth Avenue, timepiece and packaging design for L.A.M.B., along with custom work for a loyal circle of private clients.
