Only Lovers Club: 2026 Celebrity Awards Collection
✨ From Side Hustle to the Spotlight ✨
Exclusive Jewelry Designed for the 2026 Celebrity Awards
Project Description
Our Mission
At Only Lovers Club, we create timeless, small-batch designs inspired by vintage cinema and retro aesthetics. Our mission is to offer artful, wearable pieces to those who value individuality, craftsmanship, and storytelling through fashion.
The Problem We’re Solving
In a world dominated by fast fashion, truly unique, high-quality designs are increasingly rare. Many consumers struggle to find pieces that feel personal, artistic, and sustainably made pieces with soul.
Market Opportunity
The demand for independent, design-focused fashion is growing rapidly. Today’s consumers are seeking curated, boutique brands that deliver authenticity, quality, and products with a meaningful story behind them.
About Our Company & Product
Only Lovers Club produces small-batch, statement-making apparel and accessories that blend retro aesthetics with contemporary style. Each piece is crafted with care to offer a personal connection to the wearer, solving the problem of mass-produced, impersonal fashion.
In 2026, Only Lovers Club will take a bold step forward with an exclusive showcase at a celebrity awards event, attended by celebrities, influencers, and media. For this milestone moment, I’ll be designing and producing 50 bespoke jewelry pieces including a collectible accessory scarf and a western-inspired bolo trinket. These designs draw inspiration from two of my favorite creative directions: script-style jewelry (a detail I love weaving into both garments and jewelry) and vintage silhouettes. This collection will be my most ambitious project yet. While many details must remain confidential until the showcase, I’ll share sketched variations to give supporters a glimpse of the creative vision without revealing the final designs.
Of these 75 pieces, 25 will be released to the public, offering a rare opportunity to own part of a collection created for the red carpet.
Why We’re Seeking Funding
We’re seeking funding to cover the costs of materials, production, and artisan collaboration needed to bring this once-in-a-lifetime collection to life. Your support will help transform my independent design studio into a brand ready for the world stage fulfilling my biggest dream of showcasing at the 2026 celebrity awards event, while keeping each piece personal, rare, and artfully made.
Our Studio & Community
My studio is currently based at Art Hub ATX (www.arthubatx.com), a creative warehouse that nurtures artists and independent designers. I’ll be sharing updates as the campaign progresses. My workspace sits alongside my sister business, Lovers Vintage (www.loversvintage.com), allowing us to share resources and contribute to Austin’s vibrant, art-driven community. Through this campaign, I hope not only to connect with backers around the world but also to deepen my ties within the local creative scene.
Our Team
Only Lovers Club is led by myself Bonnie, a designer passionate about creating evocative, one-of-a-kind pieces. I collaborate with skilled artisans and small-batch manufacturers to ensure every item is crafted with precision and care.
Thank You!
To our backers: your support is what makes this dream possible. Every contribution helps bring unique designs to life, fuels independent artistry, and ensures that small-batch fashion continues to thrive. Thank you for joining me on this creative journey together, we’ll make history at the 2026 celebrity awards showcase.

The Campaign FAQs
Only Lovers Club – Fundraiser FAQ
1. What are the sliders made of?
Each bolo slider is crafted from 2–3 oz of sterling silver using 3D CAD design, then printed in wax and cast at our neighbor’s studio, Jeweler’s Saw, located at the Arthub ATX, where we are fortunate to work.

Just Because I Care
Inspired by my very first backer, I’ve added a $10 reward tier for subscribers and supporters who’d like access to exclusive behind-the-scenes content and campaign updates. At this level, you’ll get insider stories from Only Lovers Club how this opportunity came about, a glimpse into the creative process, and a closer look at the incredible people I’m partnering with as this journey unfolds. Maybe you’re a business owner, chasing your own passion project, or simply someone who loves the world of celebrities like I do either way, you’ll enjoy watching the magic come to life. When I was living in LA, opportunities often seemed to appear effortlessly, but in truth, they always came down to one thing: being open to dreaming big.
Custom-Designed Screen-Printed Women’s Ringer Tee
This is just one example of the pieces we’ll be producing. Each shirt is screen-printed right here at the Art Hub ATX. By purchasing a tee, you’re not only supporting my brand, but also directly supporting our local screen printer and keeping these services thriving in our community.
Exclusively crafted for celebrity attendees of the 2026 event. Only 25 pieces are available in this category, unless additional funding allows for more production. Each bolo tie is individually numbered and part of a limited-edition batch (e.g., 51/75, 52/75). Every piece is branded and labeled, making it a one-of-a-kind keepsake from this curated gathering of influencers, media, and celebrities. Inventory is carefully managed based on production costs.
The design shown here is not the final version for this event, the image has been intentionally changed for preview purposes. The bolo tie does not include the leather strand by default, though it may be incorporated into the final design depending on popular demand. The “Popstar” and “Rockstar” text is used as placeholder template text to demonstrate the concept. The actual design details will remain under wraps until the event begins. So… what could it be?
