Summer 2022: 3 Of The Biggest Jewellery Trends

For years, it was all about minimalism in the fashion industry. Less was more, or so we believed. This summer, some of the biggest jewellery trends are focused on maximalism, just as it is with fashion and interior decor. The biggest trends includes chunky rings, stacked on almost every finger, layered chains and necklaces and oversized hair clips. This year, the bigger the better is the rule when it comes to jewellery. 

Following on from some of last year’s hottest trends, including oversized resin rings - big, colourful pieces that look more like playdough than they did jewellery  - more and more jewellery designers have taken the more is more approach. So, let’s take a look at 3 of this summer’s biggest and best jewellery trends. 

Earring Stacks

The days of small, dainty single studs are long gone. This year, one of the biggest trends is stacking earrings, a collection of individual pieces all on one ear. For most, this means getting more piercings, but a lot of jewellery pieces are clip ons, so you needn’t need to add to your number of piercings in the name of fashion. 

You don’t need to invest in matching pieces to be on trend with earring stacks, in fact, the more eclectic the collection, the better! Mixed metals, bright colours, drop hoops or dainty studs are all on-trend - it’s totally up to you what you want to stack and where! Whether you want to dress up an outfit with statement pieces or add some elegance to a party dress, this trend is perfect for all occasions. 

Nostalgia

Just like fashion trends have taken inspiration from 90s and early 00s nostalgia, jewellery is set to do the same this summer. One of this year’s hottest trends features all the most loved pieces and inspiration from the same time period, think bright neons, fun shapes and chunky pendants. If you loved a specific jewellery piece from the early 90s/00s that you can’t wait to wear again, then you’re sure to love this year’s resurgence!  

Gold on Gold

Gold is this year’s hottest metal and is perfect for accessorising outfits on sunny getaways. Gold jewellery adds a touch of sophistication and elegance to any outfit and, as gold comes in a number of different shades, it compliments every skin tone. 

Gold jewellery is always in style - it’s a classic and timeless metal that is more durable than silver - and with more designers and jewellers beginning to value gold for the precious metal that it is, this means that more unique and expensive gold jewellery pieces are being created. Whether you’re interested in plain gold pieces or more statement pieces, adorned with gemstones, there is a wide range of beautifully gold jewellery pieces to add to your collection.
