About Us

A dose of feel-good glamour

Gilda's Tryst is a British jewellery & accessories label launched in 2009 by Shireen Jayyusi and Amanda Waterstone, two childhood friends who grew up together in London. With an online store at www.gildastryst.com and two central London shops in Sloane Square, Chelsea and Seven Dials, Covent Garden, Gilda's Tryst has gained an incredibly loyal customer, fashion press and blogger following.

The Gilda’s Tryst collection is about fun, feel-good glamour, drawing much creatively from books, music, fashion and film of bygone eras. Gilda, the character played by Rita Hayworth in the 1946 film noir is the label’s namesake – she was glamorous, naughty, playful, sparkly – and much of her spirit is in Gilda’s Tryst.

Gilda’s Tryst creates wearable statement jewellery with quality jewellery materials using gemstones and freshwater pearls. In addition to the main collection, Gilda’s Tryst has a range of jewellery and accessories for occasions and bridal. Gilda’s Tryst is a UK Jewellery Awards finalist 2012.
