As fall gives way to winter, new
trends in jewelry are breaking out. And emphasis on boldness combined with creativity and elegance is sweeping the fashion scene. This season’s trends are about making statements using both modern and traditional styles. What follows are the jewelry trends for winter 2024/2025.
Bold Links & Chunky Chains
It seems that chunky chains,
bracelets, and necklaces make a comeback every few years and this winter is no exception. Oversized links made from silver, gold, or a mixture of metals help the chains stand out even more. From the classic curb chains that have been around for decades to more intricate rope chains, the chunkiness works well paired with winter clothing as they tend to stand out against the thicker, darker materials.
The bold links and chunky chains work well alone or when layered with other pieces. If you want an edgy look to your winter fashion, this is the trend to catch.
Colorful Gemstones
Winter is known for its absence of color, so having colorful gemstones is a way to make up for that deficit. The most popular gemstones include sapphire blue, emerald green, citrine yellow, and ruby red to make bold statements. From necklaces to cocktail
rings and beyond, colorful gemstones accentuate any jewelry, especially during the bleak days of winter.
Some of the newer trends for winter include softer pastels that include rose quartz, aquamarine, and morganite that can be mixed or matched to suit your style.
Mismatched Earrings
One interesting new trend is the mismatching of
earrings that create an instant, attention-getting style. The asymmetrical effect offers a playful way to garner looks, especially when different metals, styles, and colors are used.
The choice for the winter of 2024/2025 is bold combinations that bring together different size studs so that the eye is instantly drawn to the ears.
Nature-Inspired
The impact of winter brings more attention to the natural world. Which naturally means that jewelry designs take on a more outdoor sensibility. Pieces with animal, flower, insect, or leaf designs come to the forefront. While the materials tend to use more enamels, stones, and a mixture of metals that create a more lifelike representation.
Common trends in jewelry designs during the winter include butterflies, bees, and branches or twigs. The trend for the winter is more organic shapes that bring a touch of the outdoors.
Pearls with a Difference
Pearls are always timeless and always in style. But for this winter, the twist is mixing pearls with unexpected materials such as metal or leather. Layered pearl
necklaces are also trendy, combining different shapes and styles for a unique look. This fresh take on pearls adds a playful nature to your appearance and provides some versatility as well since you can add or subtract to the layering effect.
Plus, pearls can be used for almost all occasions, making them a staple of winter wear throughout the year.
The jewelry trends for 2024/2025 combine bold statements, a mixture of classic and contemporary, and personal touches that help make the jewelry stand out amid your winter fashion sensibilities.
