New York--In the vibrant caravan of color that was Diane von Furstenberg's runway show at New York Fashion Week, watches and jewelry anchored the designer's nomadic theme with a sense of classic luxury.

Whimsical hats, luxurious textiles, intricate embroidery, layered knits and even pom-poms were among the feminine silhouettes featured in the designer's fall 2009/winter 2010 ready-to-wear collection.

But also part of the mix was the new Sutra Sport watches from the Diane von Furstenberg by H. Stern collection, which were featured alongside the designer's big, bold "Sutra" bracelets and her "Power Rings."

A direct evolution from the jewelry line, the Sutra watch collection was launched in the United States, Europe and the Middle East in fall 2008, with additional territories planned for 2009. The watches retail for $1,500 to $1,600 and are available in stainless steel or in stainless steel with black PVD coating.

The collection from von Furstenberg won't be the only fine jewelry at Fashion Week. Cartier plans to unveil its new "Trinity Line" at the 3.1 Phillip Lim runway show, according to a report in Women's Wear Daily. The collection includes the Trinity ring, originally conceived in 1924 and composed of three interlocking rings of white, rose and yellow gold, representing friendship, love and fidelity, respectively.
