Sydney Evan Celebrates 25 Years With 4 New Collections

The “Confetti Disco,” “Champagne Cheers,” “Tuxedo,” and “Classic Punk” jewelry collections each capture a distinct spirit of celebration.

Sydney Evan Little Love Open Coin Fixed Necklace
“Love All Around” is the central theme of Sydney Evan’s 25th anniversary celebratory collections. Pieces featuring the word “love,” like this 14-karat yellow gold open coin necklace from the new “Champagne Cheers,” collection, have been one of the brand’s most popular designs.
Los Angeles—Sydney Evan is celebrating its 25th anniversary by rolling out four new collections celebrating the brand’s legacy and continued evolution.

The collections will be released through fall and winter, each capturing a distinct spirit of celebration with a new expression of “Love All Around,” a motif that has been explored throughout the brand’s history. 

The “Confetti Disco” collection has already been released, showcasing playful movement and vibrant colored gemstones including turquoise, amethyst, lapis lazuli, diamonds, topaz, sodalite, malachite, emerald, pink mother-of-pearl, sapphire, onyx, and aquamarine.

The “Champagne Cheers” collection will center warm tones through champagne quartz, smokey topaz, peach morganite, champagne topaz, brown zebra jasper, brown leather, petrified wood, and diamonds. 


Then the “Tuxedo” collection will embody timeless black-and-white sophistication with black and white onyx, black spinel, pearls, black and white diamonds, and black leather. 

Finally, the “Classic Punk” collection will feature a rebellious mix of diamond studs with 14-karat white and yellow gold. 

This collection will feature two-tone designs, while the other three use only 14-karat yellow gold. 

The designs are meant to build on the brand’s signature interpretations of love, now in a fresh perspective.

Designer Rosanne Karmes founded Sydney Evan in 2001 naming her brand after her two children—Sydney and Evan—along with her late father, Sy.

Over the last 25 years, the brand has embraced the idea of women purchasing fine jewelry for themselves, choosing pieces that feel personal, meaningful, and worthy of everyday wear.

“At its core, Sydney Evan has always been about creating jewelry that makes women feel happy and confident,” said Karmes.

Before launching her brand, Karmes worked across the jewelry industry, from fine jewelry manufacturing to opening her own accessories showroom. This led to her noticing a gap in the market for accessible yet fashion-forward fine jewelry pieces that could be worn every day.

Karmes sought to challenge conventions in jewelry through moves such as elevating breaded bracelets on elastic with gold and diamonds at a time when buyers were hesitant, said the brand.

She also promoted original layering trends and used her handwriting for her script jewelry offerings.

Her brand has focused on words like “love,” “peace,” “faith,” and “dream” as wearable expressions of ideas for people to connect with. Today, “love” is one of her bestselling designs.

As Sydney Evan enters a new chapter, it said one idea remains at its heart—love never goes out of style.

The four anniversary collections retail from $540 to $52,000.

The Confetti Disco collection launched on Aug. 15, while Champagne Cheers release is slated for Sept. 15, Tuxedo for Oct. 15, and Classic Punk on Nov. 15.

The anniversary collections will be available on the Sydney Evan website.
