Montreal’s Olympic silver medalist and beach volleyball star, Melissa Humaña-Paredes, has partnered with Vancouver’s celebrated jewelry brand, True Curated Designs, to create a limited-edition collection that blends strength and elegance. The collaboration is a fusion of athleticism, creativity, and a shared commitment to environmental advocacy.
The collection features stunning pieces made from 10- and 14-karat gold, designed not just to adorn, but to reflect Humaña-Paredes’ deep connection to the environment, a cause she passionately supports. The partnership began when Tori Dundas, the founder of True Curated Designs, noticed Humaña-Paredes training for the upcoming Paris Olympics while wearing jewelry from her brand.
Humaña-Paredes shared her personal connection to the collection, saying, “As I prepare for the Olympics, it’s important to surround myself with energy that lifts me. I choose symbolic pendants, like the Valiant coin necklace with a lion, which gives me confidence and a little extra magic during competitions.” She revealed that this particular piece became one of her favorites during her rigorous training.
This collaboration marks a meaningful intersection of sport, artistry, and personal empowerment, capturing the essence of both Humaña-Paredes’ journey and True Curated Designs’ timeless craftsmanship.
