Summer 2022 jewellery trends

One thing that’s for certain, summer 2022 is going to be all about doing whatever makes you happy- and that includes wearing whatever jewellery makes you feel your best.

Jewellery has always been an emotional purchase, but there appears to be a growing trend of wanting to use jewellery to express parts of who you are. Whether that be through birthstones, initial engravings or vintage pieces, jewellery in 2022 is becoming far more reflective of your personality. 

Read on to discover what the catwalks and fashion moguls say the growing jewellery trends for summer 2022 are. 

 

Pre-loved and vintage jewellery

There is a definite shift in people’s ways of thinking about the climate and how they can do their bit by investing in more sustainable and ethical practices. Jewellers have noticed this shift within the fashion and jewellery market as well. Many people are now opting for pre-loved or vintage jewellery over new, modern jewellery.

With the rise of popularity in vintage jewellery comes the vintage trends of Art Deco and gemstones. This is also in keeping with the growing love for expressing yourself through your accessories as the uniqueness of vintage jewellery can be used to reflect your individuality. Additionally, the bright gemstones used in vintage jewellery such as emeralds, sapphires and rubies, are a great way to add colour to your summer outfits. 

 

Fine jewellery

In keeping with the shift towards sustainability, the jewellery industry is seeing a large number of people opting to invest in fine jewellery that will last them a lifetime. Other than engagement rings, on trend pieces include diamond earrings and necklaces. 

Fine jewellery will forever be a tradition because the jewellery is so beautifully timeless, however what is really taking off this summer is purchasing it online. The shopping habits of people have changed since the Covid19 pandemic, and there is a rise in the number of people preferring to purchase online. 

 

Statement pieces

The revival of the 70s/80s fashion trends brings with it bold statement pieces. Embellished chains, statement earrings and brightly coloured rings are making a comeback this summer and we love it! The catwalks have been littered with these styles and with the likes of Bella Hadid and Dua Lipa adopting the trend, the make-you-smile colours are the perfect summer 2022 vibe.
