The change in season is the perfect time to update your look. Like fashion, jewellery trends are always changing, and it can be difficult to keep up! If you’re looking for some guidance on how to elevate your style, these top tips will help you maximise on the latest jewellery trends for this season.
Sustainable Jewellery Takes the Spotlight
With consumers becoming more aware of the harmful effects of climate change, and the concerns about fast fashion, there’s been a shift towards more sustainable jewellery, and this year it looks set to take centre stage.
Expect to see a greater emphasis on jewellery brands that prioritise the use of recycled materials, and more ethical alternatives to classic jewellery staples, such as pieces featuring lab-grown diamonds.
If you’re looking for eco-friendly choices without compromising on style, opt for recycled or upcycled pieces, or jewellery made from low-energy sources, such as resin, wood and felt. Locally-made and sourced jewellery is also a great option, so be sure to check out your local high street or craft fairs.
Bold and Chunky Chains
Chunky chain jewellery continues to be a strong trend, especially for those looking to make a bold statement. From oversized chunky chain necklaces to heavy bracelets and rings, this trend is perfect for anyone who wants to add an edge to their outfit.
Chunky chains can be worn alone or paired with other chunky pieces for a cohesive look. To add texture and depth, opt for different chain styles (for example, rope chains alongside curb chains). Alternatively, you can wear a chunky chain alongside a more delicate piece for contrast.
Personalised Pieces
Personalised jewellery, such as name necklaces, birthstone rings, and pieces featuring custom engravings, are making waves this season. These pieces add a unique and sentimental touch to any outfit, and can make you feel even more special when wearing them.
Whether you’re gifting someone special or treating yourself, this trend is all about creating meaningful, one-of-a-kind accessories that are a conversation starter.
If you’re thinking of popping the question, the customisation trend is also affecting engagement rings. This season sees a move away from traditional diamonds, in favour of unique stones, settings and custom engravings instead.
The Return of Vintage
Vintage jewellery is making a strong comeback this season. Whether it’s heirloom pieces or newly crafted items inspired by the jewellery trends of decades gone by, vintage designs add a sense of nostalgia and timelessness to any ensemble.
Pearls in particular are set to make a roaring comeback in 2025, alongside another Art Deco design favourite – cuff bracelets. Or step back into the 1970s as cabochon jewellery sees a resurgence in popularity.
You can wear vintage pieces as a standalone statement or alongside contemporary pieces for an eclectic, signature look.
