With a new season bringing with it a plethora of bold fashion trends – denim jumpsuits and fishnets, to name a few – it’s easy to lose sight of what’s going on with all the jewellery. Necklaces and earrings may be the last thing you put on when putting together an outfit, but they are definitely not the least part of the whole ensemble, especially when it comes to the trending styles of 2024.
The spring/summer runways teased a y2k-meets-bohemian tone that will take center stage in the coming months, and anyone who remembers the state of fashion in the early 2000s knows that accessories play an important role in perfecting this particular look. Body chains are back, as are belts that are more decorative than functional, earrings that graze the shoulders, and layers of beads and chains. For those who aren’t ready for this kind of aesthetic comeback, there are other jewelry trends gaining steam, such as floral chokers (similar to the popular flower bags of 2024) and bicycles. Below, we’ve rounded up the biggest and best jewelry trends of 2024 that will have you shining in style.
Jewelry Trend 2024: Rosettes
3D flowers will be in full bloom across the spring/summer 2024 fashion landscape, with designers replacing petal designs with more dramatic renditions of the pattern. In the accessories department, there were floral headpieces, pins and chokers that aren’t your grandmother’s at Chanel and rosettes of all kinds, including necklaces, earrings and belts at Simone Rocha and Blumarine.
Jewelry Trend 2024: Anklets
With plenty of high-fashion ankle activity happening thanks to designers like Paco Rabanne and Miu Miu, there’s a shoe-side jewelry trend in the mix that will be easy to incorporate into your 2024 accessory lineup: the humble bicycle. Go for something sleek and simple, like Fendi’s gold, tubular styles, or glam things with an on-trend pearl look, à la Simone Rocha.
Jewelry Trend 2024: Oceanic Influence
In addition to the ocean blues favored by Bottega Veneta, Versace and Ferragamo, designers such as Collina Strada and Schiaparelli took a deep dive for accessory inspiration. This resulted in chokers and large pendants resembling starfish, lobsters, crabs and other sea creatures. But if a giant fish carcass necklace isn’t for you, you can still get in on the trend with significantly smaller charms and studs that pay homage to the ocean.
Jewelry Trend 2024: Super Sized
If a giant fish carcass necklace is for you — or at least big, equally dramatic accessories — expect to have fun leaning into all the big things in jewelry trends of 2024. According to Pinterest annual trend forecast reportlarge, sculptural jewelery and ‘larger than life accessories’ will be in focus this year.
Jewelry Trend 2024: Bows
The year 2024 will be all rainbows. While a number of girly fashion trends have been gaining popularity in recent seasons, this particular gem has been spotted everywhere from the catwalk (Balmain and Sandy Liang) to the red carpet (Olivia Rodrigo and Sydney Sweeney). Whether it’s a necklace, a hair clip, or a bracelet, tie your favorite piece of jewelry with a ribbon for a very trendy look.
Jewelry Trend 2024: Chunky Silvers
At The Attico, it was the necklaces. At Armarium and Valentino, it was the earrings. At Tory Burch, it was the bracelets (with the earrings also getting an honorable mention). Big, beautiful silver jewelery had a major moment in the SS24 collections and we expect to see more of the heavy metal emerging in the coming months.
Jewelry Trend 2024: Layered Necklaces
According to Chanel, Ralph Lauren and Burberry, more is more when it comes to decorating the décolletage. Top designers are layering necklaces like it’s peak festival season, so we’re looking forward to this kind of fashion fun for a year in 2024. Get the look by mixing necklaces of different thicknesses and lengths, and don’t be afraid to mix metals or add something beaded (also popular material on the SS24 corridors).
Jewelry Trend 2024: Standout Earring
No, it wasn’t a typo. A unique statement earring was embraced by Valentino, Prabal Gurung and Gucci. But if wearing just one eye-catching piece will leave your face feeling half-naked, try an asymmetrical pair as done at Etro and Erdem for the same unique appeal, but without a lob back.
