TREND 1 - BEAD-MANIA
Featured: DRAGON BIB CHOKER, £25
Beads remain key materials for youthful summer bangles, wristlets, chokers and earrings with folk and native-inspired beaded embroideries that will continue on for the boho festival looks we’ll all be sporting this summer!
TREND 2 – THE NEW CUFFS
Featured: EARTHY CUFF BANGLE, £26 and ORNATE CUFF BRACELET, £30
The ever-faithful cuff has been given a new lease of life for SS15. Precious metals, ornate gilded motifs and natural materials like wood and bone, adorned with precious stones give the cuff an elevated feel. We also see shiny metal cuff bracelets in wider widths, mixed with enamel and indentations in both silver and gold.
TREND 3 - THE STATEMENT COLLAR
Featured: SPIKED SILVER NECKLACE WITH BEADS, £25 and VINTAGE BIB STATEMENT NECKLACE, £25
Expect to see shorter collar-length necklaces in over-the-top designs this summer! Think intricate ornamentation, twisted metals and plastic charms. Team your statement collar with neutrals for understated chic, or go all out and pair with a clashing colour.
TREND 4 - STACKING RINGS
Featured: QUADRA RING SET, £15 and VINYL MIDI RING SET, £15
Multi-finger stacking rings have made a strong appearance on both the runway and the street this spring and continue for summer, with both simple metal and crystal-encrusted designs being most coveted. These delicate bands are found embellishing the mid-finger too, rather than the standard ring placement. Also looks great with freshly-manicured nails!TREND 5 – MINIMALISM
Featured: GOLD AND SILVER HOOPS, £15 and ETCHED CLASSIC CHOKER, £12
A refreshing twist to the trends we've documented for SS15 - minimalism has made a comeback! The simple and stunningly effective designs of minimalist jewellery have evolved, with subtle texturing and tones being seen on earrings, mid-arm cuffs and chokers.
