Designer Brady Legler has just stepped onto the jewelry scene with a sterling silver and diamond collection that’s geometric and edgy, at times echoing the sharp lines of pencils and paintbrushes.
A Kansas City, Mo. native, Legler is still in college, finishing up his senior year at Parsons The New School for Design in New York. In addition to designing jewelry, he’s also a painter, though the work he creates in each medium is vastly different.
Legler’s first collection was inspired by his late grandmother, a fashion model from the 1940s to 1960s who told him, “Never blend in, find something you like and add something of yourself to it.”
Flip through this gallery to see how Legler stands out.
