This season all that glitters IS gold – the more sparkle the better. Thanks to the season’s catwalk shows, sequins are here in a big way for autumn winter, and when it comes to dressing up, every outfit needs a final flourish of statement jewellery to make you feel 100% party ready.
From colourful crystals and rainbow gems to sparkling pavé and diamanté details, statement jewellery will give any evening outfit that extra glint and glam.
No longer the reserve of your granny’s jewellery box, pearls are also having a moment, with Timothée Chalamet and Harry Styles our perfect pearl pin-ups.
