“Francesca was born with an eye for jewelry. She was one of the very first people to discover Spinelli Kilcollin on Instagram. Our brand was only a few years old and had not been in any publications or big retailers. She told us our jewelry was special, bought a ring for herself, and became one of our biggest champions. She referred editors and buyers to us without our asking. A few years later, we were in a position to hire a publicist and Francesca was our immediate choice. She has worked tirelessly for us ever since and is one of the most dedicated, responsive people I’ve ever met - I literally have no idea when or if she sleeps. Francesca loves her work, she loves jewelry, and she sincerely loves the brands she represents.”

- Spinelli Kilcollin, client

"I’ve been with Francesca Simons PR since 2017 before the official launch of my brand. Francesca has developed a highly customized public relations strategy for Ashley Zhang Jewelry. With a deep understanding of my brand and style, she consistently develops story ideas and media strategies that helped build my business into what it is today. Francesca is always vigilant with her outreach, and is always looking out for the perfect press and media opportunities to further push brand awareness for my company."

- Ashley Zhang, client

“Francesca is incredible. Our business recently decided that we wanted to branch off from our usual business model and we knew that it was time to get our name out there as a brand. From our first meeting we knew that we wanted to work with her. She has helped us hone-in the vision of our brand presentation, curated our social media, and organized and directed our photoshoots. She has gotten our jewelry on A-list celebrities and publications in a way that showcases the beauty of the product. She is a trustworthy individual with a lot of experience and is overall a true professional in the industry. Even amidst a global pandemic, we are seeing the results of her hard work. We highly recommend her, without question.”

- Cicada, client

Francesca is an integral part of our company.”

Her level of passion is off the charts and anyone who meets her can see that she eats, sleeps, and breathes the jewelry industry.

“Francesca is truly our hero! After working with a few other PR firms and getting no meaningful results, we were blessed to get connected to Francesca through a friend. Not only have we become great friends personally, but I do believe she is the only publicist in the fine jewelry world that can get the job done. She has amazing relationships with the all the right editors, and she fully understands the kind of press we want and need without wasting time. Francesca is our dedicated one stop shop, and she is always creatively thinking how to better our business in all aspects beyond PR (design, sales, marketing, and any other consultation we need). She always wears and shares our jewelry with pride, only works with brands she absolutely loves to never spread herself too thin, and always makes sure to have time for each of her clients individually. Nothing else to say other than - we absolutely love her!”

“When I first met Francesca, I was the Senior Accessories Editor for fine jewelry at Harper’s BAZAAR. She came to the Hearst Tower, as she does so quite frequently, to meet with me and to show me her client’s latest collections. By the end of that first desk-side meeting, I was completely awestruck by Francesca’s apparent boundless energy and passion for fine jewelry, and most importantly the love of the product that she was presenting to me. Four years later, I am grateful to call Francesca both a dear friend and colleague. Francesca is a fine jewelry PR powerhouse publicist – her in-depth knowledge of the luxury fine jewelry industry, current marketplace climate and global relationships with key editors, media outlets and celebrity stylists makes Francesca a formidable force within the fine jewelry industry. She is dedicated to the success of her clients, both in business and in the press, and works tirelessly to elevate her brands and position them within the ranks of the most desirable and successful luxury jewelry brands of today. Most recently, I had the absolute pleasure of working side-by-side with Francesca with one of her latest clients to produce a dynamic ad campaign for the brand’s upcoming launch. Francesca is an expert when it comes to strategizing exactly what her clients need are, in order to elevate and illustrate their brand story across all platforms, whether it be a client’s digital channels or press and media channels. Francesca is an integral part of the fine jewelry industry and would highly recommend her.”

“I have worked with Francesca for almost a decade. She is incredibly multi-faceted and has such a unique eye for promoting the best jewelry brands. I have never seen anything like it working as a stylist for 15 years. She has connected me and introduced me to several great jewelry brands that I have used on editorial and celebrity cover stories from Elle Magazine to Vogue. Francesca is really dialed into clients needs and wants. She does it all. She can promote her business like no one else and yet she is so down to earth I feel like she really connects with her clients. Francesca is a fabulous business woman and I hope we will continue to work together for years to come.

“Since Francesca launched her PR agency with a focus on jewelry, she has been a game-changer in the way jewelry is presented to editors. First, by representing new and exciting designers. Then, her agency is extremely responsive when we work on stories. her pitches are truly exciting and innovative. I also would like to add that Francesca really takes the time to work personally with niche publications/influencers (we focus on bridal) which doesn’t happen a lot with larger agencies. It’s the smart thing to do for her clients. Niche publications/influencers get often more engagement and results than mainstream, in ratio.”
