We are proud to have made our own mark on fashion history with this design partnership and our work together on tonight’s landmark runway show.”

The Bach Mai Spring/Summer 2025 show, presented by Leviev, marked a joyous return to high glamour and bold color at New York Fashion Week. According to Bach Mai, “Leviev’s Beaton-inspired jewelry collection featured in the show perfectly captured the modern spirit I hoped to convey.”

The glamorous closing look of the show featured a dramatic Bach Mai gown and offered a first look at the partners’ co-designed “Le Bal” diamond necklace. The one-of-a-kind fine jewelry piece, valued at $5 million, features a 32-carat Fancy Yellow pear-cut diamond center stone, complemented by an additional 15 carats of pavé-set diamonds, all set in 18-karat yellow gold and platinum. Its alluring design showcases exceptional jewelry artistry, a unique Leviev diamond, and the feminine, extravagant forms seen throughout Bach Mai’s Spring/Summer 2025 collection.

Bach Mai: “I am so excited to be partnering with Leviev, a house deeply steeped in diamond heritage and jewelry savoir-faire. I can think of no better match for our couture-influenced gowns than the timeless elegance of Leviev’s diamond masterpieces. I have always had a love for fine jewelry, and the opportunity to collaborate with the amazing artisans at Leviev and their magnificent gems to create a unique and extraordinary piece of jewelry is a dream come true.”

The event culminated in a remarkable moment, as Bach Mai and Leviev paid homage to an iconic moment in fashion history – recreating Cecil Beaton’s iconic 1948 shoot of Charles James designs.

Leviev, the high jewelry house led by Chagit Leviev and Greg Sofiev, curated a special Beaton-inspired jewelry jewelry collection for the occasion. Each of the exquisite jewelry designs, named after Cecil Beaton and many of the models featured in iconic 1948 shoot, showcases the extraordinary breadth and expertise of Leviev and the world’s rarest colorless diamonds and fancy color diamonds. Altogether, the Leviev collection presented is valued well over $50 million and represents countless thousands of carats of diamonds.
