INTERVIEW: Nina Cortes on Her Jewelry Line & Project Accessory

Edited by Danika Daly

Nina Cortes is the darling designer of her namesake jewelry line Nina Loren who you may recognize from the Project Runway spin-off Project Accessory. Nina was a force to be reckoned with as she made it all the way to the final two. Nina’s sparkling Swarovski designs caught the eyes of audiences and judges from day one with a gorgeous, wearable necklace crafted from recycled pieces. Needless to say, she won that challenge and continues to gain interest with her elegantly-edgy pieces. We caught up with the accessory guru to get to know her better off-screen, and she is just as sweet and funny as on the show.

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

After 12 years of styling in New York City, Sara Beltrán took her fashionable self to Jaipur, India where she now creates jewelry sourced from the beaches she visits around the world. Talk about living the dream! She casts shells in gold, finds exotic stones and diamonds, scours fossilized sharks’ teeth and makes Mexican friendship bracelets as well. She was just announced the winner of the Ecco Domani Accessories Award and was granted $25,000 to continue on making whimsical jewelry that speaks to the sea lovers within us all. She named her label Dezso (the Latin word for desire) most likely because this was her greatest desire, and now it’s one of ours, too. See her seafaring wares here.
