After a decade as Chanel's general manager of communications in Australia and New Zealand, Susie Stenmark amassed a wardrobe of the luxury brand's tweed, silk, handbags and evening wear, which most women around the world would give their right eye for. Stenmark left Chanel in September 2010 to pursue an independent creative pursuit - the result being the launch of her Stenmark brand of fine jewellery. Stenmark collections comprise women's and men's fine jewellery in a kaleidoscope of colours, incorporating diamonds, rubies and sapphires, as well as pearls, opals and agate, all set in yellow and white gold.
