In a colab between Trelise Cooper and NZ Mint with its raciest campaign photoshoot yet, the jewellery line ‘Locket Full of Secrets’ launched today with a party hosted by Trelise Cooper amongst the sexy lingerie-clad models on posters.
The provocative images recalling belle du jour, have models in lacy little nothings and little somethings – the new line of jewellery – including rings, charm bracelets, cuffs, and pendants.
Rather than bright silver which is seen around a lot these days, the pieces are in antiqued silver, which is slightly blackened as though with patina.
Olivia Hemus shot the campaign photography. Prices range from $195 to $995 for the jewellery with motifs of books, carousels, fleur de lils and cherubs.

Trelise wears the bow cuff, ‘Tie Me Up’ ($495).
Bow rings ‘Ring Bow Star’ ($395).
Angels and blindfolds: a fabulous image in a lace eyemask looks on behind the cherubic ‘Through the Looking Glass’ pendant ($550) with a real magnifying glass and angel charm.
These tiny books, ‘Unlocked Secrets’ ($550) and ‘By the Book’ ($450), open to reveal actual paper pages of Trelise Cooper fashion models. A wee novel idea.
