Loves of My Life: Tilly Sveaas

The best interviews are often the most personal. In Loves of My Life, we get to know the person behind their craft, asking them the important questions we're desperate to know—the restaurants and date-night spots, what's in their Saved folder on Instagram, the piece of jewellery they're most attached to and what's lurking at the bottom of their handbag. In short, these are the true loves of their life.

Tilly Sveaas founded her eponymous brand in 2016. Born in Hong Kong to British-Norwegian parents, London-based Tilly has been a jewellery designer for over 25 years, creating her first pieces during an extended trip to Bali, where she still produces to this day. Her pieces have been worn by Taylor Swift, Kylie Jenner and Elle Macpherson, and her latest launch, Moi + Toi, is fronted by the iconic Rosemary Ferguson and her daughter Elfie Reigate.

What’s your #1 restaurant to visit in the whole world? And what would you order?

Da Adolfo on the Amalfi coast, the grilled mozzarella on lemon leaves is the best.

Is there anything in your home that you’re particularly sentimental about?

Some black and white photos of my husband and I, taken on our first ever holiday together in Egypt.

What would we always find lurking in the bottom of your handbag?

Loose Tilly Sveaas T-Bars and poo bags.

Who is the person/who are the people who fill up your cup?

My husband, my sisters and my parents.

If you could only holiday in one place for the rest of your life, where would it be?

The south of France. The light is beautiful throughout the year and it never gets truly cold. The wine and food are also not too shabby!
