Wearable Jewelry Art

Fashion jewelry draws inspiration from many places, be it nature or history, art or architecture. Each season we wear jewelry inspired by the elements that surround us.

This season, we see a surge in the trend of art deco jewelry. Whereas when art deco first came on the scene, it was more focused on bracelets, today, the trend is present in everything from necklaces to emerald cut rings. Black Onyx and platinum are a popular choice, and a striking combination when paired together. It’s all about the lines, the cut and the shape. Instead of wearing a “look-at-me” piece like a statement necklace, art deco is about being noticed for the details and the intricacies of the work. The style is precise, geometric and wearable by many. It is less of a trend and more of a staple in the fashion and jewelry industry.

Another noticeable jewelry trend inspired by the world of art is that of geometric shapes. Oversize stackable bracelets in different colors dominated the runway shows in Paris, Milan and NYC this year. Color contrast was key, with designers showing an eclectic mix-and-match mentality from head to toe. Edgy geometric jewelry played right into the theme with chunky shapes adding eye-catching pop to already busy outfits.

Nature too played a big role in what we’ve recently seen, in terms of jewelry trends. Necklaces with sterling silver wishbones, rings adorned with ornate butterflies, and earrings of delicate water droplet shapes all made their way onto the pages of the top fashion magazines “must have” lists for the season.

It's not to say that we haven’t seen or worn some of these trends in the past, but they seem to have a way of reinventing themselves every couple of years. Designers come out with new updates to old favorites, drawing inspiration from everyday life.
