FIVE for 2025 | Your Guide to My Top Pieces

As 2025 unfolds, the world of statement jewellery is merging boldness with nostalgic elegance, offering designs that redefine personal style.

Here are the five trends I’d watch out for and our curated vintage edit for your unique finishing touch.

1. Bold Gold Jewellery

Bold gold jewellery continues to dominate in 2025, with its roots deeply connected to ancient Egyptian and Greco-Roman influences where gold signified power and opulence. Recently highlighted by platforms like Brilliant Earth and Vogue UK, this trend celebrates chunky gold accessories like wide cuffs, oversized hoops, and substantial necklaces. Celebrities wear bold gold pieces that enhance minimalist outfits, while designers like Bottega Veneta and Balmain have showcased them prominently on their runways. This style offers a luxurious, versatile aesthetic, best paired with neutral or monochromatic clothing to let the jewellery shine.

I think these pieces perfectly encapsulate this enduring trend and there’s no doubt a bold gold purchase will be a jewel box hero, elevating your look every time.

2. Maximalist Designs

In a bold move away from minimalism, maximalist jewellery takes centre stage in 2025 with intricate, opulent designs inspired by the baroque period. As noted by InStyle, this trend celebrates lavish embellishments such as multi-strand pearl necklaces, baroque earrings, and crystal-laden brooches. Icons Beyoncé and Rihanna have embraced the “more is more” aesthetic on the red carpet, while Valentino and Chanel have incorporated these dramatic designs into their collections. This statement-making trend harks back to 17th-century grandeur, where jewellery emphasized decadence and detail. To adopt this look, I’d pair maximalist jewellery with understated outfits to let the pieces take centre stage.

3. Futuristic Metallics

Drawing inspiration from the 1960s Space Age era, futuristic metallics are surging in popularity in 2025. Characterized by chrome finishes, holographic effects, and geometric designs, this trend is fuelled by a fascination with technology-driven aesthetics, as noted by Who What Wear. Celebrities Dua Lipa and Gigi Hadid embrace these sleek designs on stage and in streetwear. Designers such as Balenciaga and Paco Rabanne have also brought futuristic metallics to life through chokers, cuffs, and earrings that exude a modern, sci-fi feel. Best paired with monochrome or contemporary style outfits, I think this jewellery style is the perfect way to channel a cutting-edge look.

4. Playful Acrylic and Resin Jewellery

Injecting fun and colour into 2025’s jewellery trends, playful acrylic and resin designs are all about bold patterns, vibrant hues, and quirky shapes. As highlighted by Harper’s Bazaar, this trend captures the nostalgic spirit of 1960s and 1980s costume jewellery, emphasizing whimsy and individuality. Celebrities Zendaya and Billie Eilish have embraced this trend, wearing bright acrylic earrings and chunky resin bangles. Designers like Moschino and Marni have also introduced colourful acrylic and resin pieces into their collections. These accessories add a cheerful touch to casual or retro-inspired outfits, making them ideal for everyday styling. Here are four of my faves to embody this playful aesthetic.

5. Chunky Chains

Chunky chains are an enduring trend that continues to dominate in 2025, offering a bold, edgy alternative to delicate jewellery. According to Who What Wear, this style features oversized chain necklaces, bracelets, and drop earrings often crafted with mixed metals or exaggerated links. Hailey Bieber and Bella Hadid have popularized this trend in their casual and street-style looks, while Givenchy and Alexander McQueen incorporated chunky chains into their runway collections. Inspired by the hip-hop culture and power dressing of the 1980s, this trend is a modern-day staple. Chunky chains are highly versatile and can be paired with everything from leather jackets to simple white tees for a striking contrast.
