As we head into the autumn/winter 2025 season, our floaty dresses and breezy linens are being carefully packed away, making space for the moodier, often more polished looks that autumn calls for. And whilst clothes might steal most of the attention, it’s often our accessories—especially jewellery—that deliver the finishing touches and elevate an outfit from simple to incredibly chic.
What I love most about jewellery trends is how instantly wearable they feel. Whether you’re adding a subtle nod to the season with something delicate or making a bold statement with a sculptural piece, jewellery offers an easy way to experiment, without having to reinvent your whole wardrobe. This is particularly exciting for us capsule-wardrobe lovers, who rely on accessories to breathe new life into our classic, often minimalist pieces.
Right now, with autumn on the horizon, there are a few key jewellery trends worth paying attention to. Cord necklaces, for example, have been circulating for several seasons, and if the runways at Tod’s and Gabriela Hearst are anything to go by, they’re not going anywhere. Meanwhile, Chloé is making a strong case for the resurgence of charms.
After plenty of runway research and street style spotting, I’ve narrowed things down to the five jewellery trends set to define autumn 2025, and trust me: you’ll want to start wearing them now.
5 Key Autumn Jewellery Trends to Know About
1. Cord Necklaces With Bold Pendants
Style Notes: Cord necklaces have made quite the impact recently, adorning many of our summer 'fits. One thing that really sets them apart is their bold pendants. It could be molten metal, sculptural shapes or something a bit more fun like an animal or sun emblem, but they're only set to get bolder for autumn. One of these necklaces will instantly add a statement finish to an outfit. The styling options are endless.

2. Mixed Metals
Style Notes: Once a fashion faux pas, mixed-metal jewellery has been fully embraced by the fashion world. To ease into the trend, opt for more minimal, delicate pieces, such as a dainty necklace or thin stacking rings, or instead, take inspiration from Acne Studios and opt for an earring that features both gold and silver.

3. Charming Details
Style Notes: Chemena Kamali has arguably single-handedly revived the boho trend with her first A/W 24 show for Chloé, and since then, the momentum has picked up and shows no signs of slowing down. Charms are back with a bang, and we're seeing them on necklaces, bracelets, brooches and even key chains.

4. Contemporary Pearls
Style Notes: Long gone are the days when pearls were the reserve of your grandmother—they’ve come a long way and are now so easy to wear. Vivetta showcased us sculptural pearl necklaces, whilst Chanel adorned its looks with long, beaded pearl necklaces mixed with gold and silver accents, and Roberto Cavalli paired pearls with gemstones for a contrasting finish.
