With national lockdown once again in full swing in the UK, you might be
thinking it’s time to put the fripperies of jewellery to one side. But
for spring/summer 2021, designers proved what all true lovers of
jewellery know: its ability to lift your mood is undeniable, as is its
power to make you look instantly dressed up – even if, off camera, you
are pairing it only with your pyjamas. To get more news about

There are plenty of options for all tastes and moods. Even if you’re
comfort dressing with your clothes, a strong chain will lift your look,
while a neon earring will energise even the most lacklustre home
confinement. Meanwhile, the cuff makes a welcome return whether worn on
the wrist as at Celine and Louis Vuitton or high on the arm, as seen at
Chloé and Sportmax.
Dreaming of better days spent outside in the warm sunshine are expiated
with the plethora of beaded necklaces and shell jewels. And nothing of
course will beat the earring – whether in singular or double
shoulder-dusting form — for lifting our spirits this spring. Read on for
Vogue’s pick of the finest jewellery trends from the spring/summer 2021
collections.
Neon Dream
A vibrant injection of intense colour is what we all need after a
lacklustre year. Accordingly, Eighties neon in every hue was the order
of the day at Versace, while Chanel modernised ladylike pearls with
splashes of hot pink. Also a hit in fine jewellery circles, with
designers including Solange Azagury Partridge and Bea Bongiasca opting
for retina-searing designs, this fluorescent trend looks set to keep on
glowing.
Pearls haven’t lost their modernised lustre. Already a signature at
Simone Rocha, this season they became outsized girandoles and elaborate
hair nets, while at Emilia Wickstead they were made extra luxe thanks to
a collaboration with fine jeweller Jessica McCormack.
Not having lost its ability to make a contemporary statement, the single
or mismatched earring returned at No21, Miu Miu and Alberta Ferretti.
At Fendi, which again collaborated with tech accessories brand Chaos,
the single earring became a play on the game of dice. Toss it in the air
and let it decide if it’s time to pick up a book or reach for a bowl of
pasta.
The joy of a cuff is that you can enjoy gazing at it as you tap away at
that keyboard, confined to your kitchen, just as much as those who will
see it out in the post–lockdown wild (eventually). Another jewel that
adds instant polish, express yourself with a sculptural design and wear
it any which way you like. At Chloé, sculptural cuffs in mixed materials
were worn on the wrist, forearm and upper arm. For the latter, see too
Celine (which comprised hair scrunchies) and Sportmax. And for the
ultimate power woman look, do as Lanvin suggested, and wear them in
matching pairs.
For some, jewellery became a play on brand signatures. At Prada,
accessories were kept to a minimum, a simple logo ear cuff one of the
few decorations. In Pierpaolo Piccioli’s ode to the Rockstud at
Valentino, meanwhile, the oversized stud motif adorned ears, necks,
wrists and fingers. Chanel miniaturised its 2.55 bag for the cutest
wrist and neck adornments while pendants were created from Jacquemus’s
famous Chiquito bag at his bucolic show, and Margiela’s Tabi boot was
reworked as rings and necklaces. At Schiaparelli, Daniel Roseberry
continued the surrealist legacy of its founder with giant gilded nose
earrings and fingertip talons.
