Unfortunately for those of us who feel like we were robbed of the sweltering summer promised, the autumn months are hot on our heels, and the chances of constant sun every day are now looking slimmer than ever. Warranted, autumn is by no means our least favourite season when it comes to style: think sheer tights, knee-high boots, mini dresses and a cosy knitted layer. Just like how our wardrobes require a seasonal style switch up to combat the cooler climate, our jewellery boxes needn’t be left in the lurch, swapping out our shell necklaces and freshwater pearl earrings for a touch of Autumnal decadence.
According to the jewellery experts over at Rosie Lillis Communications, there are a few standout trends spotted on AW24 runways around the globe which are set to be major come September 22nd, the first official day of Autumn 2024. Boho Chic Thanks to the likes of Sienna Miller and her favourite luxury brand Chloé, boho chic is back baby and its influence doesn't stop at ready-to-wear. This autumn calls for brown leather straps fixed with chunky silver and gold pendants, clear resin charms and a mixture of tonal-coloured beads and long necklaces in brushed brass.
Hardstones in all forms Hardstone is a term used loosely to refer to any hard gem material used for carving which often means it can be crafted into a variety of intricate shapes or left in its natural form. Botswana Agate and Green Aventurine are top favourites for the season, both mimicking colourways found in nature. 80s Earrings The bolder the better.
Chunky gold earrings were a hallmark in statement dressing back in the 80s and now the aesthetic is back in the mainstream for 2024. Famed French fashion house Bottega Veneta kicked off the aesthetic back in 2022, sending a slew of models down their A/W 2022 runway wearing the now-famous gold drop earrings. The chunky style caught the eyes of fashion lovers everywhere and has since become a staple in the jewellery boxes of those most coveted.
Bold Bangles Bangles are another 80s-inspired jewellery item coming back with a vengeance. Tiffany & Co. put the style back on the map when they reintroduced their famous Elsa Peretti Bone Cuff which was first made over 50 years ago.
Now, chunky bangles and arm cuffs are adding a touch of elevation to outfits both on and off the runway, worn on the regular by the likes of Rita Ora and Hailey Bieber. Long Earrings Long dangling earrings have forever been seen as an occasional option, worn with glamorous gowns or with a going-out ensemble. Now, long earrings are seen as an easy way to elevate day-to-day looks, with many opting for solid silver and gold options or dainty versions with singular gemstones or pearl accents.
Choker necklaces Chokers were coined the most favourable accessory of choice in the '90s so it makes sense that the Y2K style is having its second wind this year. From bow ribbon options to layered stacks, the choker silhouette is an elegant option which gives off an elongated neck illusion, not to mention they’re perfect for pairing with high-neck garment options as they can still be seen rather than tucked underneath. How we chose the pieces: Aesthetic: Each item is listed under it's main category and has been chosen to reflect the style trend.
