Call it a coincidence if you would, but the day pop star Christina Aguilera decides to show off her one-month old son Max, is also the day she’s inspired a new sterling silver collection.
Designed by none other than her friend London jewelry designer Stephen Webster, the first collection, Shattered, is mainly made from sterling silver, 18-karat gold and gemstones such as jade, chalcedony, goldstone, hematite and white agate and is expected to have about about 50 styles of rings, cuffs, pendants and earrings.
Punk-inspired Superstud, the second collection, features aroung 40 styles based on biker studs.
“We did it by demand — we’ve always had a younger following,” said Webster. “It’s our biggest launch ever, and a new direction for us.
“She was a real coup for us. She’s our longest-term regular client and the right age for the brand. We think she’s in the most glamorous period of her life right now, and she is the main source of inspiration behind the collection.”
“Working together on this campaign and collection has been an incredible experience. I am honored to be a part of it all,” said Aguilera.
The Stephen Webster Silver Collection will launch in Switzerland at Baselworld early next month, before hitting key department stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue.
Meanwhile, Christina Aguilera, who had for months kept the news of her pregnancy a secret, proudly shared the pictures of her son Max with the readers of HELLO! magazine. The beautiful 27-year-old and her music executive husband Jordan Bratman invited the magazine into their Beverly Hills mansion to meet their baby son, Max Liron, who was born on January 12.
“We can’t stop staring at him,” says the platinum-haired singer in the exclusive interview, which appears in this week’s issue of the magazine. “We study him; he studies us back. It’s an unbelievable experience, a beautiful time in our lives.”
In the photo-packed, 13-page report Christina describes her surprise pregnancy, and reveals the new depth Max has brought to her life and relationship with her husband. She also shares her hopes and dreams for their child, and details her plans to balance work and motherhood.
