Alana grew up in Torquay before moving to Melbourne three years ago. She has been designing jewelry since the tender age of five. Recalling her first ‘designer’ experience during an episode of show and tell, where she presented her class with a necklace made from her father’s fishing line and her mum’s vintage beads.

Some 20 years later and Alana continues to create beautiful jewelry. Her collection was showcased at this year’s Source part of the AFW held at the St Kilda Sea Baths.

Alana’s jewelry is hand made and theme based, the price ranges from $30 - $120. She draws her inspiration from vintage magazines, books, movies, travel experiences and the Mill Markets in Geelong!

This summer Alana’s range will have a swept away theme, expect plenty of clean, fresh colours like whites, baby blues, sunset yellows, with pieces that will include sail boats and birds of paradise. The collection is designed to compliment delicate summer dresses and care free summer feel. Also, look out for the launch of Alana’s men’s jewelry collection label Tozer.
