Jewelry designer Eddie Borgo, winner of the 2011 CFDA Swarovski Award for innovation in accessory design, is making a personal appearance at the downtown Nordstrom on Friday, June 7 from 1 to 4 p.m. in Via C. This is timely, given the CFDA just announced its 2013 winners on Monday— the amazing Pamela Love was this year’s winner of the same award.

Borgo has been making jewelry since 2002, and was asked by Phillip Lim to create a collection for his Spring/Summer 2009 show. He aesthetic is punk-inspired: modern shapes influenced by street style and rock and roll.
