Fashion is in redux mode. One season it’s Y2K, and next it’s the mid-’90s. On the jewelry front, designers are looking at yet another moment—think 2005-ish when the Olsen twins and Serena van der Woodsen were in their “boho-chic” era.
Festival-ready beaded necklaces appeared at Ralph Lauren and Isabel Marant, while Chanel’s Virginie Viard, Etro’s Marco de Vincenzo, and Burberry’s Daniel Lee dressed up gold and silver chains with quirky trinkets. A symbol for wholeness, infinity, and life without end, the circle turned up on earrings and pendants, filling the collections with an air of Zen. It was a head-to-toe kind of energy, with Rabanne’s Julien Dossena, among others, ornamenting the models’ feet with delicate anklets and toe rings. An abundance of critters—snakes, lobsters, cows, and even a mermaid—put us further in touch with nature at Y/Project and Valentino, as did playful droplet shapes and Courrèges and Tory Burch.
After seasons of post-pandemic extravagance and overt sexiness, there’s something to be said for jewelry that looks and feels grounded. It’s about finding a balance—aesthetically and metaphysically.
