Being a tennis player all my life, I have seen fans support their countries in some of the most unusual ways. At the U.S. Open, Australian fans would wear kangaroo suits in the middle of the summer heat. At Davis Cup matches, American fans wore red, white, and blue nets on their heads and were affectionately nicknamed “netheads.”
Watching all of this, I thought there had to be a better way to show patriotism and support for one’s country. As a woman and lifelong bangle wearer, I decided to create something lightweight, comfortable, stylish, and easy to wear.
And so, I designed the Star Spangled Bangle®.
