Say hello to the AW24 accessories trend that instantly upgrades all your looks… the cuff bracelet. Pioneered by the likes of Tiffany and ALAÏA, the OGs are far from affordable but are certainly keep-forever jewellery pieces you’ll treasure for decades. And if you want to recreate the look on the high street, we’ve got you covered. Scroll to shop our edit below…

The ALAÏA Look

ALAÏA Bobine cuffs have a Greek or Roman goddess feel about them, as seen on the runway in their AW24 collection. It’s all about high-octane glamour – go big and structured with cuffs that climb up the sleeve and always wear one on each arm for added drama. We love a gold set paired over a sheer chocolate brown blouse or worn on bare arms with an LBD come party season.

Hammerd Metals

If your style feels a little more low-key and bohemian, look to hammered metal styles and rustic shapes. We love Monica Vinader’s Capri cuff, inspired by the undeniable glamour of its namesake. Its satin-finish gold vermeil makes it really pop but is understated enough to wear with absolutely everything, adding a little Dolce Vita moment to the everyday.

The Tiffany Look

If money was no object, the Tiffany Bone cuff would be top of our Christmas gift list. Sadly, the £17k+ price tag is out of reach for most but the high street has come up trumps with myriad iterations.

H&M has a great doppelganger to the tune of just £22.99, but if you want something more substantial but not too pricey, New York-based jewellery designer, Olivia Le, has a charming selection in both gold and silver for under £100.

Coloured Designs

If you love all the natural, rustic shades that are around this season, add a resin or coloured cuff to your looks.

Zara’s maxi bangles belie their high street price tag and come in the most beautiful architectural shape that literally hugs the wrist. Choose from a marble-esque white – great with monochromatic looks, or a rich brown hue to add to earthy mustards, moss greens and inky blues. Or add some boho charm to weekend denim with M&S’s vintage-inspired amber bangle.

Sleek & Contemporary Styles

On the flip side, if you’re after something that is going to go with pretty much all your looks, go for sleek, contemporary designs in silver and gold. We love layering the mixed metals up for a more unique feel and it’s also a great way of tying in your everyday jewellery like rings and pendants to the look.

Alex Bittar’s Liquid Lucite is by far our favourite,  hand-carved and hand-polished in the designer’s studio in Brooklyn, it’s accentuated by a molten hidden closure that looks like rippling liquid on the arm. Dreamy.
