Outlaw Atelier is known for it’s romantic, rebellious and chic approach to what clients describe as “fundamental.”  Worn by celebrities, fashionistas, and outlaws alike, the unique designs and diverse use of materials distinguish each creation.  Fossils, fine gems, and fibers…to name a few; often paired with antique, vintage and “found” objects discovered in remote places around the world and around the corner. This quest to unite spiritual and visual beauty has inspired cherished relationships with skilled artisans who handcraft extraordinary elements for many Outlaw Atelier designs. Just another facet of Outlaw Atelier that weaves its richly textured story and heartfelt sense of community into each sumptuous treasure.

Outlaw Atelier is new to the jewelry scene, but its persona and style were fashioned years before alongside its founder, Ilene.  Whether to adorn her hair with an unusual twig uncovered on her way to school, or construct long jeweled necklaces out of birch bark, glue and glitter; even as a child, Ilene set trends—always resisting established rules—always a true outlaw… Her passion for design stems from an insatiable curiosity for the detail that makes something special. The patina reveals the story and Ilene is eager to write its next chapter.

The vision to create fine jewelry arose simply to fill a void in an otherwise crowded market that overlooked what so many for longed for: Jewelry that speaks to them and about them—and at once, is unexpected, luxurious—often mischievous, even bold—yet simple, refined.  Jewelry that makes a statement in its beauty as well as its meaning.  The journey comes full circle through this iconic new brand.  So begins the story of Outlaw Atelier and its very own rebel—with a cause…
