DLC
Brooklyn (aka Dirty Librarian Chains) was born out of designer Susan Domelsmith’s frustration with
being unable to find jewelry that possessed an edgy, understated and yet
slightly askew elegance.
The current
collection of DLC Brooklyn incorporates reworked vintage
costume jewelry that is hand picked from dead-stock as well as
second-hand sources. The materials and components of each design
constantly change based on what is available, making each piece one of a
kind as well as creating a unique history that arises from the
interaction of individual vintage components.
DLC Brooklyn
continues to receive extensive press coverage in publications like
Nylon, Jalouse, Jane and Vogue China, as well as being featured on the
cover of Teen Vogue (June/July 2006). Kate Hudson, Debbie Harry, Jessica
Szohr, KT Tunstall, Jessica Alba, Ellen Allien, Holly Williams, Peaches
and members of bands like Yacht, Vivian Girls, Ladytron, and Rilo Kiley
have been seen wearing pieces from the line.
