Jewelry Meets Iconic Photography in a Bold Brand Retrospective
Pomellato, the Milanese jeweler known for blending everyday elegance with unmistakable character, has unveiled its first-ever solo exhibition celebrating its visual legacy with legendary photographer Helmut Newton.
The exhibition offers a rare look at how Newton’s provocative, high-contrast imagery helped define Pomellato’s brand identity in the ’80s and ’90s. These aren’t just fashion photographs—they’re striking studies in power, femininity, and the art of adornment. Each image transforms jewelry from accessory to attitude.
The pairing makes sense: Pomellato has always rejected the notion of jewelry as static or precious. Newton’s lens, with its unapologetic glamour and tension, reframes each piece as part of a living narrative—a jewel not worn, but inhabited.
While the exhibition nods to a specific moment in the brand’s past, it also signals something enduring: Pomellato’s quiet commitment to boldness, through both craft and image. Elegant, yes—but never just ornamental.
