" Photo: Courtesy of BRVTVS The clothes are the biggest attraction of any runway show, but the details can offer up rich stories, too. Minimalistic jewelry line BRVTVS worked with Jason Wu to create ear cuffs for his spring show that would go with the collection&amp;#039;s sleek and streamlined looks. ELLE.com found the accoutrements story from BRVTVS jewelry designer, Caroline Ventura. ELLE:How did the collaboration between you and Jason start? Caroline Ventura: The idea came about through Jason&amp;#039;s stylist, Kate Young. She and I have worked on a few different projects together, and we spent a few weeks going back and forth with different ideas and designs. This was the first time I&amp;#039;ve done ear cuffs, so the majority of the time was spent just figuring out how they should lay on the ear. ELLE: Was Jason very involved in the process? CV: I was fairly free to design the pieces the way I wanted to. My jewelry is pretty minimal, and that&amp;#039;s the feeling I wanted to give it in the end: minimal, but not boring. I designed about six or seven different styles of cuffs and earrings for him to choose from and we spent a few  hours trying them on in different combinations before he decided on a final look. ELLE: What&amp;#039;s the energy like on a collaborative project like this? CV: I love it. For me, it&amp;#039;s exciting to see where my mind goes when I take direction and inspiration from someone else&amp;#039;s designs, rather than my own. Working with Jason and his team was really wonderful, and it was amazing to be in a room full of such talented people. ELLE: What were you doing the runway show? CV: Unfortunately, I had another project deadline the day of the show and I couldn&amp;#039;t attend, which was a total bummer! I watched it stream online as it was happening, and I had a few friends with me, so it was nice to sort of celebrate with them. Shows are exciting because you&amp;#039;re getting the first peek at something that someone has worked so hard on for months, but this time was especially exciting and gratifying because a small part of it was my something.
