New York, NY—Platinum Guild International USA (PGI-USA) is joining forces once again with style expert Nina Garcia (left), Marie Claire creative director and Project Runway judge, for the fourth quarter of 2014.
Last year, Garcia curated a gallery of platinum jewelry on The Knot and has chosen fresh new platinum pieces this year. The gallery showcases beautiful and relevant design in bridal and fashion jewelry. Garcia will again use her style expertise to share the latest trends in platinum jewelry and fashion design via social media and press opportunities.

We are thrilled to continue this partnership with a natural ambassador for platinum jewelry.”
“I am thrilled to share a new crop of my favorite platinum pieces,” says Garcia. “As fashion evolves from season to season, platinum remains a staple for jewelry that will endure throughout the years and is so versatile it will adapt to these transitions. From classic to cutting edge, there’s a platinum piece available to complement every individual’s taste.”
