The Jewelry Diaries x Fashion Month Jewelry

At New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2026, jewelry moved beyond minimalism, with large pendant necklaces setting the tone. Designers from Michael Kors to TWP unveiled functional pendant styles—wallets, pouches, and even chains for glasses—merging boho chic with modern utility. The runways also featured chunky mixed-metal chains, oversized pearls, playful brooches, and leather or nylon cord necklaces with meaningful charms. Celebrities including Lili Reinhart, Suki Waterhouse, Ciara, and Jessica Alba mirrored these trends with layered necklaces and stacked rings across multiple fingers. The takeaway: in 2026, jewelry is functional, expressive, and bold—transforming from accessory to ultimate style statement.
