Like most fashion trends at the moment, the bigger the better. So, when we say statement, make it a bold one…

Saint Laurent and Bottega Venetta are just two of the designers at the helm of this dramatic jewellery trend. Gold and silvers were often the metals and colours of choice on the AW23 catwalks, but there was also no denying that big earrings were going to dominate the upcoming party period. From giant tear drops and cascading rhinestones to golden domes and oversized flowers, earrings are currently far from modest. They are chic, striking and art in their own right. 

One of the biggest adopters of said bling, is none other than style queen and Rhode skincare founder, Hailey Bieber. She is consistently spotted in an array of gold statement earrings, even in her brand’s campaign images. Many other influencers have also embraced the look with puffed-up hearts being another go-to style. These can be found at both Jennifer Fisher and high street fave, Cos.

While H&M and Zara have obviously created their affordable and stunning styles, we can’t help but be captivated by some of the more niche labels also championing statement earrings. Anisse Kermiche designs are probably the most unique, while Romy London manages to fuse both power and fragility into each creation. Completedworks is another brand of notable design, with jewellery so covetable it should be framed.

The beauty of these earrings is that they are transformative. You can throw on a casual winter roll neck and add any one of the pairs below and you’ve instantly upped the glam. This is what we call fashion maths… and that’s one class we’re here for.
