Hello, sun. We’ve been missing you. We’re enthusiastically anticipating a brighter, more assertive spring and an eventful year after what seemed like an endless winter. So what better way to kick off the season than with something truly special—the hottest jewelry trends to give our outfits a fresh look.
The ready-to-wear runways for S/S ’23 may have provided us with all the ideas we need for the upcoming six months, but it is indisputable that the jewelry we choose to wear says just as much about who we are and our sense of style as the clothes we wear. “While a fantastic pair of shoes or a designer handbag can temporarily become an essential part of your wardrobe, nothing compares to the timeless quality and sentimentality imbued in a classic piece of clothing,”Rosanna and Christie Wollenberg, the sister collaboration behind the fine jewelry company Otiumberg, describe jewelry as “a treasured piece of jewelry.”
Beyond the sentimental value, jewelry is a way to express oneself and nearly becomes an extension of the body. We adore jewelry that can be worn every day, stacked or paired to elevate a simple dress from desk to dinner, creating a sophisticated look with ease. We make jewelry with a timeless viewpoint that matches the wearer’s particular style.
And it is true that the capacity of jewelry to change an appearance possesses something really exceptional. Consider the simple pairing of the shoulder-skimming earrings from Proenza Schouler S/S ’23 with a bare décolletage.
Or perhaps it was the large silver chokers that stuck out at the A/Z Factory event in contrast to the plain, monochromatic outfits. “I feel like the spring is a season of two moods: there’s a hearty dose of fun in the jewelry we’re seeing on the runway and in the street, but there’s an equal sense of moody sophistication and a touch of grunge in this season’s collections,” said one fashion critic. Rosie Lillis, the founder of Rosie Lillis Communications and a PR specialist for luxury jewelry brands, continues. Including the classic, ubiquitous outfit of a white T-shirt and jeans, can be significantly improved with some layered necklaces and stacked rings–aka the perfect spring uniform.
