🎭💜 Mignon Faget’s Mardi Gras Jewelry Is All About Joy, Bead Dogs, and Pure NOLA Magic
If you're heading to New Orleans for Mardi Gras—or just wish you were—Mignon Faget’s 2025 Mardi Gras Collection is here to bring you ALL the feels. 🎉💫
From sparkling bead dogs (yes, bead dogs) to iconic purple, green, and gold jewels, the brand’s latest drop is nostalgic, hyper-local, and seriously fun.
🐶 Wait, What’s a Bead Dog?
Don’t worry—we had to ask too. Turns out, it’s a beloved childhood craft in New Orleans: kids twist leftover Mardi Gras beads into dog shapes while waiting between parades.
“It’s like friendship bracelets—but New Orleans style,” says CEO Maghan Oroszi, who grew up surrounded by the tradition.
Now, Mignon Faget has turned that throwback into bronze, sterling silver, and 14k gold jewelry—the ultimate wearable memory.
💎 Highlights From the 2025 Collection
Bead Dog Necklace in bronze – $160
Petit Bead Dog Studs & Pendants – in silver or 14k gold
Bead Dog Pendant with Rainbow Hemalyke – $3,265
Crown charms, King Cake ornaments, festive bracelets, and more 🥳
Every year, the brand also drops a limited-edition Mardi Gras necklace—and yes, it always sells out.
💬 “We love playing with the colors,” says Oroszi. “Our Rainbow Hemalyke and crystal mix really catches the light.”
🌍 Jewelry That Feeds the Local Soul
As a brand deeply rooted in New Orleans, Mignon Faget knows Mardi Gras is about more than beads and parades.
“It’s a sacred time,” says Oroszi. “People come together across neighborhoods, backgrounds, and beliefs—to just celebrate the good.”
TL;DR:
🐾 Bead Dogs are the most charming nostalgia trip ever
- 💜💚💛 Mardi Gras colors + gold = chef’s kiss
- 🛍️ Local love meets luxury
- 🎉 New Orleans magic you can wear
Let’s be honest—you don’t need to be in NOLA to feel the vibe.
You just need the right necklace. ✨
