She recently made her debut for Lakmé Fashion Week in Mumbai this past March with her <a href="http://www.vogue.in/content/mawi-0" target="_blank">“Indian Odyssey” collection</a> (a take on the 1968 s<span style="line-height: 1.5em;">cience-fiction film “2001: A Space Odyssey”), where her accessories were paired alongside garments designed by Indian fashion designer Gaurav Gupta—an excellent collaboration as both designers are about cutting-edge and experimental aesthetics.</span></p> <p>Her accessory designs are often a cauldron of various subcultures, textures, and elements that infuse punk and industrial with old-world luxury glamour. Keivom finds it far more rewarding to see a person on the street donning her pieces over A-list stars and celebrity or brand endorsements. She also believes that “you can get more creative and quirky with accessories,” even if you work in a corporate setting.</p> <p>Here are a few fun-loving, luxurious MAWI accessories that you can purchase at the Houston Museum of Natural Science:</p> <p><img style="border: 0px;" alt="" src="http://i1375.photobucket.com/albums/ag461/Elvia_Francis/Bibi%20Magazine/MawiLondonCrystalGemClipEarrings_zps48b300be.jpg" width="350/" border="0" /></p> <p>For the traditionally glamorous femme, who hasn’t made the commitment to pierce her ears: Mawi London Crystal Gem Clip Earrings ($295) – Hematite plated and set in Swarovski and mixed crystals.</p> <p><img alt="" src="http://i1375.photobucket.com/albums/ag461/Elvia_Francis/Bibi%20Magazine/MawiLondonSpikeCrystalEarrings_zpsd4c5f30b.jpg" width="350/" border="0" /></p> <p>For the regal, edgy femme: Mawi London Spike Crystal Earrings ($465) – elegantly plated in rose gold for a vintage-chic appeal, features an edgy suspended spike, and set in Swarovski and mixed crystals.</p> <p><img alt="" src="http://i1375.photobucket.com/albums/ag461/Elvia_Francis/Bibi%20Magazine/MawiLondonCrystalSpikeStuds_zps81656be6.jpg" width="350/" border="0" /></p> <p>For the style-conscious minimalist: Mawi London Crystal Spike Studs ($180)</p> <p><img alt="" src="http://i1375.photobucket.com/albums/ag461/Elvia_Francis/Bibi%20Magazine/MawiLondonRazorCrystalRing_zps3f611248.jpg" width="350/" border="0" /></p> <p>For the femme fatale who mixes glamour with danger: Mawi London Razor Crystal Ring ($295) – the delicately decadent and simultaneously controversial rose-gold plated razor blade ring features a single emerald solitaire Swarovski crystal.</p> <p><img alt="" src="http://i1375.photobucket.com/albums/ag461/Elvia_Francis/Bibi%20Magazine/MawiLondonLadderChainCrystalChoker_zps9e980757.jpg" width="350" border="0" /></p> <p>For the modern sophisticate: Mawi London Ladder Chain Crystal Choker ($665) – this divine ladder chain choker is plated in rose gold and features a ruby crystal center, set in Swarovski and mixed crystals. 13.25″ length.</p> <p><img alt="" src="http://i1375.photobucket.com/albums/ag461/Elvia_Francis/Bibi%20Magazine/MawiLondonGlitterBugClutch_zps24a14005.jpg" width="350" border="0" /></p> <p>For the glittering party girl: Mawi London Glitter Bug Clutch ($560) – this glitter-encrusted clutch replete with crystals, perspex spikes, and metal adornments is sure to make you the toast of the party.
