A Moment With…Gemma Redux’s Rachel Dooley
CIRCA spotlight, cheris! A quick catch up with Gemma Redux’s Rachel Dooley...
What’s your story?
I was a mechanical engineer who moved to NY to go to law school but fell back in love with design. I was making jewelry as a hobby,and it slowly developed into an aesthetic that people responded to! I made a few pieces here and there, and I launched my line—Gemma Redux—four years ago.
What does the name mean?
It means ‘reconstructed gems’ in Latin. We take a lot of industrial materials and rough stones, which aren’t frequently used in jewelry, to create serpentine, feminine silhouettes.
How does it feel to show your collection in the CIRCA Lounge at Lincoln Center?
Honestly, as an accessories designer, you almost think that showing at Lincoln Center is not an option. This is incredible!
