Erstwilder “Fashion Sense” Brooch – Pete Cromer Fairy Tales Collection (2026)

A delightful sold-out design from the Erstwilder x Pete Cromer Fairy Tales Part 2 collection.

Inspired by The Emperor’s New Clothes, this playful brooch features a rather confident emperor proudly parading through town, blissfully unaware that everyone can see exactly what he isn’t wearing. Rendered in Pete Cromer’s unmistakable style, it combines humour, colour and storytelling in a wearable work of art.

Presented in its original storybook-style box, this limited-release design is now sold out and increasingly difficult to source.

Design Story

“Once upon a time, an image-obsessed oligarch was embarrassed in his own streets after being on the wrong end of a classic swindling. Out of the mouths of babes, the truth comes to light.”

A wonderfully witty piece for collectors who appreciate fairy tales, humour and a little mischief.
