PDF Rings
Release Date: April 5
Where to Buy It: pdfchannel.com
Price: $195-$250
Domenico Formichetti's PDF is entering the jewelry game. The "Bend" silver ring looks sort of like a fancy Band-Aid. It's made of 925 Sterling Silver and treated with a matte finish. Small and large sizes will be up for grabs. Each will be adjustable from sizes 12 to 28. The design is inspired by bandages that athletes use on their hands when injured. To PDF fans, these probably look familiar. Formichetti has been flexing his own diamond versions on Instagram lately.
