Drop earrings: what the jewelry trends say

Large, opulent, rich in detail and often super luminos: dangling earrings, elegant or unpredictable, dominate the season in the form of maxi hoops, sculptures, stilettos or chains. For brands focusing on earrings, pearls and crystals become the main ingredients of brilliant and luxurious proposals. Of course, although in the background there is no shortage of lobe earrings, which in turn acquire out-of-the-box shapes and sizes. While the dominant trend is distinctive dangling earrings, the AW22/23 collections focus on important bijoux concepts with obvious and unembarrassed personalities.

Pearl necklace: the revival of a classic

The traditional pearl necklace never ceases to fascinate, and for this season it is reinterpreted in a contemporary key, updating its shapes and changing its purpose: in fact, from being a typical female accessory, this iconic piece of jewelry is also presented in the unprecedented and daring men’s pearl necklace format.Whether double strand, chocker or torchon, pearl necklaces are back in the limelight to complete the most extravagant outfits with a sophisticated touch.

Band or stone rings: a treasure on your finger

Multiple, concatenated or cocktail rings, AW22/23 rings stand out for their brilliance and out-of-the-ordinary volumes. Fully in keeping with the season’s palette, one of the trendiest proposals is the emerald ring, which echoes the shades of lush greens seen on the catwalk.Also making an appearance among the wide-band rings is the very special cameo ring, to be shown off to complete a contemporary look or worn exposed over a glove.

Rigid bracelet: maxi or extralight

Extralight or bold, rigid bracelets tower over garments by presenting themselves overbearingly above the long sleeve, like proud fashion statements. It is the triumph of the gold rigid bracelet, which dresses luxury wrists with gala charm throughout the day.

Brooch: gold, fabric, pearls or stones?

The brooch made of gold, fabric or innovative materials makes a statement on the most sought-after outfits. Large and showy, the season’s proposals are inspired by the grandeur of the most aristocratic antique gold brooches and revisit their influence by focusing on bold volumes and materiality.

Red carpet jewelry: the trends sported in Venice

Cinema, fashion, the international jet set and red carpet jewelry. Venice sets the standard, and the runway shows at the seventy-ninth annual Venice Film Festival offered us an opportunity to appreciate the trends most sported on the iconic red carpet, precious ones in the lead.

Red carpet: jewelry and fashion statements

The dreamy gowns worn by the guest stars in the enchanting setting of the Lido could only be complemented by jewelry to match. The red carpet saw a parade of the major high jewelry houses, which offered sophisticatedly retro or boldly contemporary looks complemented by sumptuous women’s bracelets, dangling earrings, sophisticated brooches and timeless gold necklaces.

Collier: a triumph of interpretations

As multifaceted and striking as the roles on the silver screen, the choker necklace has appeared on the décolletage of several stars. From the traditional gold choker to the brightest choker-effect diamond chokers, this accessory has complemented many successful outfits to perfection: sophisticated white gold chokers, traditional proposals with multicolored stones, and bold white gold and diamond chokers have taken turns on the red carpet.

Jewel brooches for elegant dresses: the star detail

Another accessory that is definitely back on the crest of the wave is the decorative brooch, capable of attracting so much attention that it centralizes all need for brightness and allows necklaces, bracelets and earrings to be left at home. Among the jewel brooches worn by stars, one particular diamond-studded creation in an extra-large version definitely took the scene…

The rings: diamonds, gold, stones and maxi formats

One piece of red carpet jewelry that should not be underestimated is definitely the one that adorns the manicured hands of the most prominent divas. At Venice 2022, eye-catching models full of personality such as the Bulgari ring in the shape of reptilian coils or the sinuous knot signed Pomellato triumphed.

Bracelets: on the wrist of stars

Among the red carpet jewelry we also find bracelets, less worn than other accessories but certainly not negligible. The most popular models are those that take up the shape of the other jewels worn for an elegant parure effect. The trend that will lead the way? A band bracelet, possibly brightly glowing.

Earrings: hoop, spot light or cascade

Vintage-flavored gold earrings, diamond spotlights, and, above all, dangling earrings with a decorative spirit that descend to the shoulders bringing color and brightness to enhance cleavage and hairstyle. The comeback not to be missed? That of gold hoop earrings, sported in both minimalist and more opulent variants.

Red carpet: Venice, jewelry and pre-loved spirit

On the famous red carpet, we saw the creations of iconic brands such as Cartier, Bulgari, Gucci, Tiffany, Pomellato and Buccellati take turns. In spite of the new collections, however, many stars have complemented their outfits by wearing wonderful vintage pieces or those belonging to past collections.

Ethical jewelry: the sustainability of pre-loved valuables

Ethical jewelry is an important frontier in the journey toward sustainability as applied to the luxury. From red carpet VIPs choosing used jewelry (and clothes, too!) as a take on the eco-friendly to the pre-loved philosophy. This new green trend helps us maintain a style that is unique and trendy while respecting the planet.

Ethical jewelry: the “3 R’s” of pre-loved

The circular economy, finds its basis in a simple and straightforward philosophy that can be summarized in three “R”. These are the initials of the words “resell, reuse, regenerate” (resell, reuse, regenerate).

With this in mind, the beauty of used vintage jewelry is no longer limited only to its uniqueness and their special character. But goes beyond these qualities to emphasize their value in ethical terms. The reclaimed jewelry satisfies our craving for luxury by limiting the practice of mining. The consumption of exhaustible resources and the use of new materials of animal origin, helping us to respect the Earth, its environments and its inhabitants more. Considering the case of gold jewelry vintage, for example, we can appreciate how the trend to regenerate, modify and actualize such jewelry contributes decisively to the limitation of virgin gold mining. A practice with an environmental and social impact that is no longer negligible.

Buying refurbished jewelry: why it pays off

In different sales markets, vintage jewelry and jewelry contemporary pre-loved represent the most sustainable choice for anyone who wants to indulge in the luxury of wearing something beautiful and distinctive. They also reflects green principles.

But what is reconditioned jewelry?

A reclaimed (or reconditioned) precious is an accessory that has been “already been loved” by someone (here is the meaning of pre-loved) and that undergoes a careful refurbishing procedure to be worn by another person. In addition to being equal in quality to new, if not even better in the case of workmanship that is now rare or disappeared. A refurbished piece of jewelry usually has a lower cost than its counterparts never worn. This means that the sustainability of ethical pre-loved jewelry should not be understood as an exclusively environmental feature. But also as an advantage in terms of economics at the level of quality-price ratio.

From dangling earrings to choker: the SS22 trends

What will be the fashion jewelry in the next SS22 trends?

With the new season SS22 trends shows a come back of a carefree and fun fashion that borrows childish subjects, past trends and shapes that tickle the fancy. Read on to discover the hottest trends for the new season.

1. Chandelier earrings: the return of pendants

Let’s start from the top. Whether you adopt a lady-like style or embrace an ethnic inspiration, for spring/summer 2022 the lobes want to return to host elegant pendant earrings in style. This format, declined in many variations for all tastes, is one of the brightest trends of the season and confirms the prominence of the ’80s style. Characterized by cascades of crystals, large colored stones or elongated pendants, the “chandelier” model pendant earrings are transformed into top complements that do not go unnoticed – not coincidentally, in English “chandelier” means “chandelier”!.

2. SS22 trends alert choker: necklace or collar?

Moving to the neck. Spring-summer awaits us by putting in the foreground the choker necklace in the “strangolino” version. The choker necklace. In fact, has as its main feature a particular adherence that allows you to wear it even in the middle of the neck defying the force of gravity. Very popular in the ’90s, this choker lends itself to many different styles depending on the accessories. From the studded collar typical of the gothic and punk rock style. In fact, we pass to the choker necklace with pendants of romantic inspiration or the pearl choker, very refined and sensual.

3. Eyecatching necklace: watch out for the pendant!

Literally, it is a “necklace that attracts attention”. An eyecatching necklace is a jewel composed of one or more lengths and adorned with a small or large pendant, very special or absolutely colorful. Among the most trendy necklaces with particular pendants we find necklaces with pendants inspired by the world of childhood, fantasy or romance, such as the tender necklace with heart pendant. The most daring souls, then, will be able to dare wearing original precious accessories such as a necklace with photo pendant or overlapping several necklaces with large multicolored pendants.

4. Bangles and cuffs: the inevitable rigid bracelets trends

What is the difference between a bangle and a cuff? The two formats of rigid bracelets are distinguished by a simple detail: while a bangle is a rigid bracelet without closure or opening, the “cuff” model is distinguished by the semi-circular shape that includes an opening through which it is possible to pass the wrist. In both cases, the rigid women’s bracelet is a must-have accessory to face the summer with a jewellery box worthy of the hottest and most carefree season. The plus for SS22 trends? Choose big, golden bangles or cuffs, perfect on tanned skin.

5. Chunky rings: the world of the “big rings”

“Chunky” means “massive”: chunky rings, in fact, are really big, peculiar and often colorful rings. Another macro trend of the season, the particular rings with stones in oversize version dominate the look by putting in every gesture the full personality. For this spring-summer let your creativity run wild and choose rings with special shapes without forgetting to wear an important ring that takes the leading role.

6. Gold brooch: elegance and brilliance

Precious, original and refined, the brooches in white or yellow gold are back in the limelight. As sophisticated details to give brightness, authority and value to outfits of all kinds.

Sapphire: meaning and features

Blue sapphire is the most popular and sought after variety of corundum. This magnificent stone is similar in composition to ruby. Its hues can vary from a refined pale blue to an intense deep blue, and if the inclusions present in the gem are chromium. The color veers towards indigo, very close to the panton color of the year 2022. These are the sapphires native to Sri Lanka with the typical purplish blue tone.

In addition, jewelry such as sapphire earrings or a ring with sapphire (perhaps a wonderful sapphire and diamond ring) lend themselves to be worn every day in serenity: the high hardness of the gem, in fact, is equal to 9 on the Mohs scale (10 is the maximum value and represents that of the diamond) and gives the stone a remarkable strength. Often chosen as a talisman, sapphire is associated to purity, lively intellect, spiritual research and the ability to see beyond appearances. Consequently, a sapphire necklace can be a meaningful and exciting gift: a true statement of esteem.

Amethyst: meaning and features

Amethyst, a highly valued stone since ancient times, is a beautiful purplish quartz associated with nobility, protection, pure love and sincerity of emotions. Its color can range from a pale lilac to a deep purple with rich purple hues. Since crystal study suggests that this stone can help in freeing us from headaches, swelling and stress, precious accessories such as an amethyst ring or amethyst earrings are an invitation to take care of your physical, mental and spiritual well-being.

Tanzanite: a stone to discover

Tanzanite stone is a variety of zoisite, a crystalline mineral appreciated for its pleochroism, that is the ability to change color (in this case passing from blue to purple) according to the orientation of light. Raw tanzanite, discovered in Tanzania in 1967, comes from deposits that are being depleted and for this reason it is increasingly being searched for by connoisseurs. Available in many sizes, from the classic oval cut to symbolic works such as the heart cut, this stone gives life to very elegant and original bijoux.

Iolite: iridescent stone

Iolite, also known as cordierite or water sapphire, a gemstone with remarkable iridescent power, exhibits a beautiful natural blue-violet color that is enhanced during processing through cuts capable of focusing on the charming two-tone refractions generated by its contact with light. Choose bracelets or rings with iolite for an intense and original look.
