One of the simplest ways to up-level any outfit and a great way to express your own individual style and personality, an incredible pair of earrings, a statement necklace or a beautiful bracelet are all potential game changers – and with a host of exciting new jewellery trends set to shape the new year, it’s the perfect excuse to go shopping.
Whatever the occasion, these versatile pieces are some of the key items to splurge on for 2023, inspired by the spring/summer 2023 fashion week shows from London, New York, Paris and Milan.
Shoulder duster earrings

Shoulder duster earrings were big news across the board when it came to the new-season catwalk shows, and are arguably set to be the single biggest jewellery trend of the new year. A term coined during the Art Deco era to describe three-inch-long pendant earrings which were dainty and all-but grazed the shoulder, this wasn’t the only reason for their name, as they originally featured a unique shape and motif that resembled a feather duster.
Nowadays, a feather duster isn’t something you’ll be wanting to emulate through your choice of earrings, but the good news is that the latest iterations are very different, and today, the term applies to any long, drop-style earring. Diamonds and fringing adorned some of the most elegant models seen on the catwalks, and make for the ultimate statement choice to add a little ‘wow factor’ to your spring look.
Hoop earrings

The hoop earring is one of those styles that never really falls out of favour, and while they might vary in size and metal of choice, they are invariably a feature on every new season catwalk. This year’s hoop earrings of choice are a little more abstract, and in a departure from the classic round shape, we’re seeing silver square and rectangular alternatives coming into play.
Does this mean the classic gold hoop is out? Thankfully not, and Fashion Weeks across the globe also showcased a return of the oversize hoop, as well as continuing to embrace the smaller ‘huggie hoop’ style that has been popular of late. So whatever your taste and style, there’s a hoop earring for you – in 2023 and beyond.
Jumbo pearl earrings

Classic and timeless, pearl jewellery has always been effortlessly chic and endlessly sophisticated – and in 2023, our love affair with this precious gem is set to continue. Typically, though, they’ve had a new-season makeover, and this time around, it’s a case of ‘the bigger, the better’ – with the jumbo pearl making a return to our jewellery boxes and characterising some of the most prominent new-season must-haves.
Chunky pearl necklaces are the ultimate statement, but in the new year, it’s earrings we’ll be going wild for. This trend is one that combines well with the shoulder duster trend, and we’ve been seeing some breath-takingly beautiful pearl drop earrings gracing the catwalks that are almost certainly set to be one of the most coveted jewellery choices of the season.
Seashell earrings

As we look forward to longer, lighter days and warmer weathers, it’s almost impossible not to start daydreaming of luxurious summer holidays and sun-soaked days on the beach, and one of the biggest new season trends gives a nod to exactly that.
Seashell motifs were one of the standout looks when it came to jewellery in London, Paris and New York, with gold-plated and natural shells alike proving popular – and earrings, in particular, were given a seaside-themed makeover. The perfect way to enjoy some laid-back, off-duty cool into any outfit, choose from tiny studs, chunky statement earrings or drops to nail the look.
