Pearls have been a fashion favourite for centuries. Their timeless beauty appeals to almost every generation and culture. The Fall ‘17 catwalks confirmed this ancient trend shows no sign of slowing with Channel, Gucci and Moschino all putting pearl accessories and embellishments front and centre at their recent shows. Chunky pearls, pearl duster rings and even pearl statement earrings were worn with bags of attitude.
When you think of pearls, you might think of the classic, creamy single-strand - delicate, feminine and ageless. This look is undeniably beautiful but modern pearl jewellery offers so much more. With this gorgeous stone enjoying a well-deserved moment in the style spotlight there has never been a better time to explore the newest looks for this classic stone.
Dive into our favourite modern takes on the pearl below.
Rainbow Colours
From creamy white to peach, lavender and dark inky shades the pearl comes in an amazing range of glorious natural colours. Choose an unusual hue to have your pearl jewellery stand out from the crowd and accentuate its beauty with luxury metals and gems. It’s impossible not to swoon over this natural green-grey Tahitian pearl complete with a 18ct white gold and diamond encrusted setting. It’s the ultimate statement piece for your jewellery collection.
Baroque Beauty
Sometimes beauty lies in individuality. This is certainly true of baroque pearls whose fascinating but stunning irregularity adds a very modern sentiment to classic pearl jewellery. Formed in fresh water, baroque pearls have an incredible natural iridescence and colour range that makes them feel light and fresh. One of our favourite baroque pieces is the Muse Lavender Baroque Bracelet. Feminine and bohemian, this is a perfect everyday bracelet. In love with baroque? We also offer the coordinating chunky pearl Flora Necklace.
Layers and Layers
More can occasionally be more and a layered look is the perfect way to add drama to your pearl style. This was a look that Chanel showcased this season, providing a subtle twist on their longstanding love of the pearls. You can replicate this effect by layering individual pearl pieces or loosely looping a long pearl necklace. Our Muse 3 Colour Freshwater Pearl Necklace offers a fabulously long strand of 169 delicate pearls and is perfect for creating a layered finish.
Statement Earrings
Pearl earrings have evolved a long way from the classic single stone stud. Look out for pieces with intricate design work, oversized stones or a unique twist that sets them apart. Our playful Starlight Pearl Ear Climbers are a lovely way to make a statement with pearls. The dainty design is framed by cubic zirconia adding sparkle in a sterling silver setting. Sitting at the ear lobe they curve up into your ear, creating an unusual but beautiful look. Wear them with a simple updo to let your pearls do all the talking!
