MEN’S JEWELRY
MEN ’ S MOVEMENT
O nce a special category of its own, men’s jewelry has become more mainstream as jewelry takes a turn toward more gender neutral collections. Trends in men’s jewelry reflect overall jewelry trends, with a greater focus on multiple sizes and styles that can be worn by both men and women. Stacking bracelets may have started out as a new style for women, but men have been doing it for years, and it’s now a staple. The beauty lies in the ability to personalize the look by mixing and matching materials, colors, and textures.
New looks include combining leather with sterling silver, and gold link chains are being added to everything. Diamonds are becoming important highlights, but so are gemstones, particularly hardstones like turquoise, malachite, lapis, and others. Large single chains and cuff bangles are also becoming a stronger look for men, in chunky metal styles or gemstone-set silhouettes that can be worn alone.
