This season’s biggest jewelry trends are easier to wear than you think. While the pieces that dazzle in Paris, Milan, and New York runways can feel larger than life, the real excitement begins when these trends trickle into everyday style.
With the right pieces of jewelry, it’s easy and effortless to channel that runway glamour while still feeling authentic to your own everyday style. Here are six jewelry trends that defined the Fall/Winter 2025 runways, along with ideas for how you can wear them.
Statement Cuffs
Statement cuffs made a serious impression this season at the Louis Vuitton and Tom Ford fashion shows, giving the models a sense of power and modern confidence. Make this trend yours with the Marco Bicego Lunaria Cuff. Hand-engraved in 18k yellow gold using an ancient Florentine technique, it carries both artistry and elegance.
If you lean toward the modern edge, the CHANEL Première Cuff Watch is another statement piece that blends function and form. The interwoven black leather and yellow gold coating make it as chic as it is practical—a bracelet and a timepiece in one.
Big, Bold Brooches
What was once thought of as your grandmother’s jewelry box staple has become a breakout star of the season. Carolina Herrera, Tory Burch, and Miu Miu all leaned heavily on brooches on their fall runway shows. The results felt anything but old-fashioned—these brooches were large, deliberate, and expressive, often serving as the centerpiece of an ensemble.
To bring this into everyday wear, think of a brooch as a personal emblem. It doesn’t have to feel stiff or formal; it can be playful, glamorous, or even avant-garde, depending on the design. Pin one on a tailored blazer for an instant lift, or fasten it to a scarf for a chic seasonal update.
This Mikimoto Akoya Cultured Pearl Brooch, featuring lustrous pearls in a feather-like design set in 18k white gold looks at home on the lapel of a coat or a denim jacket, depending on your mood.
Pearls, pearls, and more pearls
Pearls had a renaissance moment this season. The CHANEL show doubled down on them, weaving chunky strands into handbags and exaggerated bracelets that made them feel both bold and modern. Schiaparelli exaggerated the look with oversized pearl studs that nodded to the unapologetic glamour of the 1980s.
For those who prefer understated elegance, the Mikimoto Classic Elegance Akoya Cultured Pearl Earrings are the perfect choice. They frame the face beautifully, whether you’re dressed in office wear or heading to brunch. For something that channels the runway’s bolder proportions, these White South Sea Cultured Pearl Waterfall Earrings make a dramatic statement with a luminous pearl accented by sparkling diamonds.
Long, layered necklaces
If one necklace is good, three or four are even better—at least, according to Zimmermann and Chloé’s Fall/Winter 2025 shows. Models were styled with chains in varying lengths, creating cascades that felt both bohemian and luxurious. The trend thrives on abundance, yet when done right, it can also look sleek and intentional.
Start with delicate base layers like the Roberto Coin Diamonds by the Inch Necklace. Its dainty bezel-set diamonds offer subtle sparkle that pairs beautifully with almost anything. Try on the Sethi Couture Jillian Double Strand Necklace, which adds intrigue and color with its black diamonds on a yellow gold chain. Finally, make a statement with the Ippolita Luce Medium Stone Long Necklace, where moonstone, crystal, and mother-of-pearl combine for a luminous finish.
Layering necklaces gives you freedom to experiment. Mix metals, combine rose gold jewelry with yellow gold, or even throw in a strand of pearls for extra dimension. The more personal your combinations, the more authentic the look feels.
Fringe Earrings
Movement was the name of the game at McQueen and Dries Van Noten, where earrings with cascading fringe created drama with every step. Whether dripping in gemstones or made from bold metallic strands, these earrings captured attention in the most dynamic way possible.
For everyday wear, fringe earrings don’t need to be overpowering. Choose a design that adds shimmer without weighing you down. The Zadok Collection Diamond Fringe Earrings strike that perfect balance. Their delicate lines catch the light and move gracefully, making them an excellent choice for a date night, gala, or even a festive holiday gathering.
Yellow Gold Revival
After several years of silver taking the spotlight, Fall/Winter 2025 was a reminder of yellow gold jewelry’s enduring power. From New York to Paris, designers leaned into its warm glow, pairing it with rich fabrics and autumnal palettes.
At Zadok Jewelers, pieces like the Anita Ko Meryl Diamond Huggies bring this trend to life with an understated sparkle that works from day to night. For something more dramatic, the Zadok Collection Graduating Bar Necklace is another showstopper that can anchor an outfit with ease.
Bringing the Runway Home
The runway may inspire bold experimentation, but real style emerges when you take those ideas and make them your own. What makes these trends so exciting is their adaptability. Some pieces shine in their original form, while others inspire new interpretations through custom jewelry design, allowing you to create something entirely personal while still tapping into the season’s spirit.
Fashion may start on the catwalk, but the jewelry that truly matters is the kind you live in. This season, let your jewelry tell your story—one cuff, one strand of pearls, or one pair of earrings at a time.
