When Nontle Jewelry returned to the runway, it wasn’t subtle. It was a soul-stirring arrival. The Heritage Collection debuted at Rip the Runway: Columbus (2025), and the energy in the room was a powerful reminder of why Nontle Jewelry was created in the first place.
It wasn’t just about fashion.
It wasn’t just about the beads.
It was about resurgence.
It was about affirming that adornment is sacred and that our culture, our creativity, and our boldness deserve center stage.
This was more than a show.
This was a homecoming, for my artistry, my intention, and my voice.

Nontle Jewelry didn’t just make a debut at Fashion Week Columbus, we made an entrance. The runway became our stage, and every step was a declaration.
Beads, brass, and bold silhouettes moved under the lights, telling stories of identity, resilience, and unapologetic beauty.
This wasn’t jewelry you simply looked at—it was adornment you could feel. Every curve, every texture, every intricate detail spoke to our philosophy: that jewelry should be more than decoration. It should be statement. Memory. Legacy.
