innovation & creativity
This Couture I was most impressed with the technical application and imagination from the designers. Designers pushed boundaries and took risks!

personal expression
Meaningful jewelry remains an important stable for both clients and designers, and that was reflected throughout the collections. Playful pieces like hotel keys, suitcases, and robots stood out as favorites. Symbolic motifs—zodiacs, lucky charms, and lockets with hidden messages—also resonated.

revival & vintage influences
One of the strongest trends at Couture this year was the influence of vintage jewelry. Designers drew inspiration from multiple eras, from the bohemian spirit of the ’70s with peace signs and flower motifs to the ’90s revival of beaded bracelets and chokers. The Art Deco era also made a major impact, with geometric shapes, baguette cuts, and enamel. Pinky rings, rooted in Victorian tradition, were everywhere—nearly every designer featured their own version.
