Just one scroll of Instagram, and you'll notice one particular jewelry trend that's suddenly everywhere this summer: long pendant necklaces. Thanks to contemporary designers such as Juju Vera who has captivated the fashion set with its statement Petra Shell and Tassel necklaces, along with chic brands such as Julietta, Chan Luu, Ben-Amun, and Heaven Mayhem leaning into the trend with eye-catching pendant details such as pearls, gemstones, shells, and tassels, it's clear that the fashion crowd's love affair with the long pendant necklace knows no bounds.
On the runways, we saw the trend reimagined as a symbol of boho-chic elegance from designers such as Chloé, Johanna Ortiz, and Ralph Lauren, to name but a few. Whether you layer multiple necklaces together (short and long), or pair one long necklace with a sleek camisole, one thing's for certain: You're sure to look 100% on-trend for summer 2025 when you wear one.
