It is a fashion fact universally acknowledged that the right piece of jewelry can be the cherry on top of a perfect outfit. Nowhere is this more obvious than on the runway during fashion month when designers debut next season’s collections and top trends in New York, London, Milan, and Paris. Not only is it a feast for fashion girlies the world over, but it gives you ample time to daydream exactly how you’ll style your looks once the weather changes up again. For this upcoming season, designers softened and expanded on fall’s top jewelry trends including playing up pearls, mismatching earrings, and leaning hard into ultra-femme, edgy, and opulent aesthetics.
While thinking about summer jewelry might feel impossibly far off, it’ll be time to slip on statement rings and ribbon chokers before you know it which is why we’ve rounded up the top jewelry trends for spring and summer, fresh off Fashion Month’s most exciting runways.

At Kimhekim and Sixdo, larger-than-life pearls were worn at statement necklaces. Meanwhile, at Versace, dramatic jacket pearl earrings veered far from the delicate studs of previous seasons.
