Dominique Aurientis is a French fashion designer who graduated from the Sorbonne. She started her career working at Dior and then moved on to fashion houses Chanel, Lanvin, Ferragamo, Celine, Givenchy and Emilio Pucci. In 1986 she went out on her own and opened her own her accessories and fashion brand Dominique Aurientis that gained immediate international attention and wide media coverage. Dominique Aurientis jewelry designs are unique, innovative and rooted with a classical sensibility often incorporating elements of nature. Her pieces were sold by the better stores of Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus and Harrods to name a few.
In a New York Time article from Oct. 19, 1991, Dominique Aurientis is described as: "Most of the new breed of accessory designers see their work as a genuine art form. Dominique Aurientis, arising star who was trained in the studios of Dior and Isabelle Canovas, says "My collection is entirely handmade with the best materials I can find. To me, a bracelet should be as beautiful when it is displayed on a shelf as on a wrist." Her idiosyncratic interlaces of metal, pearls and stones are becoming collector's items."
