The collection celebrates Dolly’s iconic 1974 song, “Love Is Like a Butterfly”
Kendra Scott announces the launch of a limited-edition collection designed in partnership with international star and fellow philanthropist Dolly Parton. This marks the beginning of a multi-year collaboration that brings together Dolly’s larger-than-life style with Kendra Scott’s signature gemstones and silhouettes. Inspired by Kendra’s admiration of Dolly Parton and her iconic 1974 song, Love Is Like a Butterfly, each piece in this limited-edition collection embodies Dolly’s spirit as a beacon of creativity and giving back.
The collection features the Dolly Parton x Kendra Scott 1974 Necklace, with exactly 1,974 statement Butterfly necklaces created; and inspired by Kendra’s connection to Dolly’s iconic 1974 song, “Love Is Like a Butterfly,” which shares a birth year with Kendra. Featuring ten unique designs adorned with signature Kendra Scott silhouettes and iconic gemstones, this collection captures the themes of love, joy, and self-expression at the heart of Dolly’s legacy.
The collaboration celebrates a lifetime of inspiration, honoring Kendra’s icon while marking the 50th anniversary of Dolly’s beloved Love is Like a Butterfly album. Crafted to evoke nostalgia and ignite self-expression, the Dolly Parton x Kendra Scott collection invites you to embrace your inner Dolly. It’s a tribute to the transformative power of creativity and community, reflecting the journeys of two visionary women who share a passion for connection and authenticity. For Kendra Scott, Dolly Parton is the blueprint—a true role model in life, work, giving back, and an endless creative butterfly.
“It’s hard to put into words what Dolly Parton means to me. She’s the ultimate role model: a prime example of staying true to yourself, believing in the power of art and creativity, and giving back along the way. I’ve admired and looked up to Dolly my whole life, and working with her has truly been a full circle, pinch-me moment. I’ve looked to her—as so many of us can and do—for inspiration, humor, and kindness. This collection captures that beautifully and I’m so proud for fans to explore a jewelry collection that can live up to the absolutely singular Dolly Parton,” states Scott.
“Before I ever met Kendra, I was aware of her reputation as a self-made woman, her kind heart, and of course, her wonderful jewelry line. I was honored to learn she was a fan of mine and even more, honored when she asked me if I wanted to partner on a jewelry collection based on my song ‘Love Is Like A Butterfly’. Naturally, I said yes. The more I get to know Kendra, the more I love her. She’s the real deal, beautiful inside and out. I hope you enjoy our collection as much as we’ve enjoyed each other while putting it together for you,” Parton says.
Kendra Scott and Dolly Parton are thrilled to announce the launch of their exclusive collection, available for a limited time starting November 13th at 10 am ET. This collection, which was facilitated by Dolly’s licensing agency, IMG marks the beginning of a multi-year partnership, with the collection available online at KendraScott.com. To celebrate, there will be exciting launch events and elevated shopping experiences at select stores, offering fans a chance to immerse themselves in this unique collaboration.
