RAPAPORT… Flirty and feminine, bows are a fashion favorite. Soft, draping bows dripping with diamonds harken back to eras past. More structured bows, paved with diamonds, have a modern feeling. Bows have been used to signify relationship status and also as a way to remember something, making it a motif that is just right for a romantic gifting occasion. Whether a fashion statement or a love token, bows are always the finishing touch on a pretty package.
