David Yurman’s Spring Campaign Is a Love Letter to New York
It offers a sneak peek of an upcoming collection.

New York—David Yurman revealed its spring 2021 campaign this week.
Called “My New York,” it honors the city’s creative pulse, cultural institutions, neighborhoods and landmarks, the jeweler said in a press release.
David Yurman Chief Creative Officer Evan Yurman served as the campaign’s creative director.
New York City-based photographer Lachlan Bailey shot the campaign and Anastasia Barbieri styled it.
Supermodels and David Yurman brand ambassadors Joan Smalls and Taylor Hill star in the images, casually posed in the city’s cafes, layered in gobs of jewelry from classic offerings like the “Cable,” “Pinky Ring,” “Stax,” “Lexington,” and “Renaissance” collections, as well as statement pieces from the upcoming “Elements” collection.
The brand said the latter collection is inspired by circles, representing perfect balance, harmony and unity.
For the Yurmans, “My New York” is about honoring a city where people have flocked to chase dreams and pursue possibilities.
Co-Founder and CEO David Yurman said, “Sybil, Evan and I were all born in New York City. It's our home and in our DNA—its creative energy courses through our veins. We want to celebrate and support our hometown—what this city was, is, and will always be. It's our New York.”
Out now, the spring 2021 campaign will feature in digital and print media, out of home advertising, video streaming and social media platforms.
Next month, “My New York” will expand to include a social media initiative highlighting actors, musicians, artists, athletes, philanthropists, and entrepreneurs, each telling a unique story about the city.
