CANADIAN JEWELRY DESIGNER OF THE YEAR
JEWELS BY ALAN ANDERSON
Alan Anderson is a self-taught jewelry
designer based in Toronto, Ontario. In
his studio, Anderson handcrafts each
piece, prong-setting vintage crystals and
stones to create one-of-a-kind pieces. He
doesn’t research trends, instead staying
true to his personal style with an ever-
changing collection of statement pieces
that he hopes women will wear daily “in
random acts of glamour.” His fascination
with all things that glittered, on a large
scale, began as a child. First influenced
by an eccentric aunt who adorned herself
in gems, his devotion grew watching
the films and glamourous sirens of
Hollywood’s golden age, at the same time
devouring the images of Newport’s gilded
age and books on European Royalty at the
turn-of-the-century.
His pieces have adorned celebrities and
magazine covers around the world. In
December 2011, an amethyst cuff created
by Alan and owned by Dame Elizabeth
Taylor was part of the Christie’s auction,
The Collection of Elizabeth Taylor. In
July 2012, one of Alan’s brooches, worn
by Katy Perry, appeared on the cover of
L’Uomo Vogue.

THE FOUNDER

shop when she was 9 which kept her
summers busy working around lace and

Mexico. After a first successful year, she
sold the store, got married and moved to
Vancouver, Canada in 2011. She worked in
her first mini collection and visited Blush
Bridal / Vera Wang store in Vancouver.
They kept all the pieces and Olivia
was born.
In 2013, Olivia started selling at Isetan,
Japan’s most exclusive department store.
Being at their emblematic Shinjuku branch
was a milestone and inspired Sandra
to explore international grounds and
encouraged her to show at the upcoming
Bridal Fashion Week in October 2014.
THE BRAND
Olivia is represented by a wolf who
expresses the essence of our brand. Their
brides know what they want. They don’t
follow, they lead. They like tradition
but are the ultimate wanderers. They
are fighters but they’re kind. They are
confident but generous.They are strong
but playful. They are brave but gracious.
They are fearless but loveable. They are
part of a gang but they’re discerning. They
have character. They are honest They are
smart. They are beautiful.
WHO IS OLIVIA?
Olivia is Sandra’s grandmother and was
a very influential person in her life. She
started an exclusive couture atelier where
people, not only from the vicinity, but from
all parts of Mexico will go to have their
bespoke dress made.

Nadia Colella began her artistic journey
at a young age, always knowing Art and
Pastry were her two passions. In 2005,
she started her own pastry business and
her hopes for what this medium could
do surpassed her expectations. Once
she realized that cake could be used as a
canvas, she would never have to settle, she
could please the eye while pleasing the
palette too!
Nadia was led to the Ontario College of
Art and Design, where she completed
her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with a
specialization in Drawing and Painting.
Through study and practice of different
mediums, she was able to explore a world
without limitations and found her studies
included subjects indulging pastries in
excessively beautiful settings.
In 2011, Nadia completed the “L’Art de la
Patisserie” program at the French Pastry
School in Chicago, mastering French
Pastry Techniques. She can now merge her
passion for fine art and material with her
love for sweet confections. Nadia’s goal is
to allure her audience with the rich history
of art, while entertaining their taste buds,
to create a world of decadent memories.

scratch in their studio. Their invitations
have made guests excited; they have
maximized venue capacities; given events
a brand; and their unforgettable heirloom

drawn and then meticulously perfected
for printing. Letterpress, foil, flat printing,
edge painting, hand-crafted boxes, sewing,
embossing.... all this is done in-house.
They believe that each client has a special
story that they often don’t know how to
tell, and through their work, they not only
give them a voice, they can also elevate
the overall wedding landscape in Canada
by creating truly unique work.

After founding SpectacularSpectacular in
2004, Melissa Haggerty quickly became
known for planning extraordinary events
and setting the new industry standard
for excellence in service, execution and
artistry. Armed with a design education,
Melissa has a sharp eye; she edits and
curates every production personally.
It is her unrelenting commitment to
producing the best event possible that
sets her apart: she takes time to do things
properly, putting in the extra effort that
often goes unnoticed, but helps elevate
the guest experience to a new level. There
is no cutting of corners. Her dedication
to her clients and work colleagues alike is
also admirable, as she always looks out for
their best interests with passion and open
communication.
