(PRESS RELEASE) PLANO, TX — Sylvie Collection, an award-winning designer bridal and fine jewelry brand announces the debut of its all-new digital customized ring builder “Sylvie Style Bar” available on sylviecollection.com. The mobile and desktop digital ring builder allows for the personalized creation of over a 1,000 customized engagement ring options with more designs and styles to be added in the future. An easy-to-use, five-step selection process allows the user to build a ring in under a minute which can then be emailed, shared on social media, saved on phone or desktop as well as used to locate and connect with a Sylvie retailer for purchase.
Known for flexibility and ease of special orders, Sylvie Collection reports over 60% of annual sales are from custom orders. In the 2019 Knot survey conducted by The Knot Worldwide over 50% of couples want to personalize their ring design in some way and 31% of couples are custom designing a ring from scratch.
“Customization is by far the most important offering when it comes to bridal and we wanted to include this optimized feature on our site that allowed our community to easily build, design and share their own Sylvie rings based on their preferences. Visual images of the ring can seamlessly be shared, and ultimately purchased at their nearest Sylvie retailer,” states founder and designer, Sylvie Levine. “Over the past year, our team developed a ring builder that is easy to navigate, intuitive to consumer shopping behaviors, inspirational, fun and accessible on mobile or at home, or even in-store.”
The Five Steps of Sylvie Style Bar:
Step 1: choice of seven different diamond shapes – round, princess, emerald, pear, marquise, cushion and oval
