Fashion Week often teases what’s ahead, but Ahluwalia and Pandora are breaking that trend with a collection of engravable charms designed by Priya Ahluwalia—ready to shop immediately.
“There are six designs that can go on charms, earrings, necklaces, bracelets… even a waist chain,” Ahluwalia shares from her London studio. “You can engrave both sides, flipping between designs depending on your mood.”
This marks the duo’s second collaboration—last season, Pandora sponsored Ahluwalia’s SS25 show, where pearl accents, including a striking body harness, graced the runway. This time, the partnership takes a more personal turn.
“I’m a sentimental soul,” Ahluwalia laughs. Her six designs celebrate her Indian-Nigerian heritage, including the “Joy” print, inspired by traditional textiles, and the map of Africa. “Africa is one of the most special places in the world,” she says. “It felt like a beautiful way to bring that into a mainstream space.”
Other designs include “Flower of Nigeria,” featuring the country’s national bloom, and “Paisley Print,” a nod to Indian embroidery. “Synergy Print” and “Starry Night” reference past Ahluwalia collections, making them wearable pieces of her world.
Though skipping this season’s Fashion Week, Ahluwalia has big plans—especially in jewelry. “I’d love to do more,” she teases. “There’s something exciting in the pipeline… but I’m not revealing anything just yet.”
