Comeback queen, Sha’Carri Richardson accentuated her embellished manicure, which is reminiscent of legendary runner Florence “FloJo” Griffith Joyner’s nails circa the late ‘80s, with a bright textured red bracelet watch. Then, so aptly named “the GOAT”—aka, the greatest of all time—Simone Biles wasn’t shy about the well-fitting nickname. And it showed, what with the custom 14k white gold, 3D goat pendant, hand set with 546 diamonds, hanging around her neck. Commissioned by Calabasas-based designer Janet Heller, the one-of-one pendant took about two months to create, from conception to delivery. From the looks of it, the piece was well worth the wait.“To say we were excited and honored for this collaboration, is an understatement,” the designer tells Vogue of getting the call from the gymnast. “Simone sent us a picture of a goat as an inspo, but other than that, she gave us a lot of creative freedom.”Simone BilesPhoto: Getty ImagesThis isn’t the first time Heller and her team have been asked to design something like this. In fact, the two go way back (to the 2020 Tokyo games) and worked together to recreate long jumper Tara Davis-Woodhall’s diamond Olympic rings necklace. “Simone and Jordan Chiles both saw it and both wanted one and asked Tara for our contact info,” Heller shares. “Both girls reached out and we made [it for] them, also.”
