CHANEL COHN
Creative Director
If you were a laminate, which would you be, and why?
I like shiny happy things so I’d have to pick a holographic laminate. Big tie between cracked ice & the diamond plaid pattern.
If you were an animal, which would you be, and why?
A dolphin. First, I’m not a great swimmer so why not make myself a professional swimmer. 2, everyone thinks elephants have the best memory but it’s the dolphin. And 3, they are social and they travel in groups, which I really miss these days with social distancing.
What’s your best travel story?
I used to travel to Europe 2x a year trend shopping for work. 5 countries in 10 days. The experience and culture was so inspiring and worth the intense jet lag.
What’s the coolest thing you’ve ever done?
Danced on stage with Prince at Madison Square Garden. Oh yeah, and I changed my name when I was a kid.
What do you like to make?
Jewelry. Chances are whenever you see me, I am wearing something I created. I can also draw and paint. I’ve done Beyonce and Jay-z, Prince, Biggie, and Madonna. Basically, if you are a music icon I can paint your portrait.
