Though she runs an established jewellery and objets boutique in Greece, when it comes to imagining new collections, Greek jeweller Lito Karakostanoglou casts a wide cultural net. But then she’s enjoyed a global career, including a stint in US advertising and studies in sculpture and technical drawing in Paris. It was in the French capital that, during the 2000s, Lito started designing for fashion houses including Jean-Paul Gaultier and Kenzo, before finally heading back to Athens to establish her eponymous jewellery house.
