Latest Jewellery Trends in 2025: What’s New & What’s Coming

The jewellery landscape sparkles with fresh energy and extravaganza this 2025 season. As evident from the various global events, consider the trends in 2025 jewellery to be big and bold, expressive, and completely personal. Whether you are a trendy shopper looking for the latest, a fashion lover who wants it all, or someone fond of wearing statement pieces- this year, big beautiful and bold jewellery is making a comeback.

The upcoming trends, all the fashion and jewellery ‘must-haves’ and ‘crimes’ have already been made apparent on two of the world’s most prestigious fashion events- the Cannes Film Festival and The Met Gala. And one thing is extremely evident- this year is about going big; making a statement that’s entirely you.

Let's delve into the top jewellery trends of 2025, and what's on the horizon:

Big Stones and Vibrant Tones

Minimalism is taking a break. Maximalism is unapologetically stepping into the spotlight in 2025 and nothing quite says it better than the explosion of colourful gemstones and bold designs - think huge emeralds and sparkling Moissanites.

The Cannes 2025 red carpet evidenced this well; when Irina Shayk wore enormous yellow diamonds and Alessandra Ambrosio wore a tanzanite and diamond set that dazzled. You don’t have to be a celebrity to wear these luxury looks. Indian consumers, who have long favoured colour-filled, incredibly sized jewels, are shifting decidedly towards these incredibly personal, often personality-driven styles.

At Kicky & Perky, we've already seen the demand for colour gemstones and enamel accents skyrocket.Younger people are more likely than most to partake in these trends; opting for jewellery that speaks their tongues, personality and identity. Jewellery for blouse looks and jewellery for collar neck blouse trends are also on the rise, with matching modern jewellery for high neck blouse and v neck blouse styles.

Statement Pieces Take Centre Stage

This year’s jewellery is not meant to be subtle- a little something that fades into the backdrop of the outfit. This year’s about standing out and making a statement. From stylish and breathtaking tiaras to statement earrings- this year is about going all out.

Just look at Urvashi Rautela, who took the Cannes red carpet and turned it into a dramatic fairytale with jewels made from rare gemstones and theatrical accessories, not to be outdone, Janhvi Kapoor also joined in with her jade necklace with back plunge and sculptural earrings.

We expect to see this trend of giant gemstones, and big statement pieces to gain center stage at the stereotypical big fat Indian weddings, where one can ‘never’ outshine the bride. Modern consumers want heirloom-inspired pieces with a modern twist. Big and bold enough to stand out, but modern enough to fit into today's fashion narrative. Jewellery for high neck blouse and jewellery for v neck blouse are being highlighted more now than ever, especially in wedding fashion.

Earrings: The New ‘It’ Pieces

Another notable shift in 2025 is the rise of earrings as the standout features of an ensemble. Celebs have left out neckpieces altogether and let their earrings take the spotlight instead.
Juliette Binoche's diamond-framed earrings at the film festival were understated, elegant and powerful. Alia Bhatt's outfit set out to win global hearts, with the pearl draped look demonstrating that even the simplest earring could make a statement when styled (well).

This trend of "less but better" resonates with both Millennials and Gen Z. The modern fashionista seeks sleek looks for everyday fashion and big, jaw-dropping statement pieces for opulent events! Pairing earrings with jewellery with high neck blouse and jewellery for blouse combos is a fashion-forward move this season.

Diamonds Are Back

With Lab- Grown diamonds taking over the market, Natural diamonds had taken a step back. But they're back with a bang; and a different meaning in the year of 2025. 

While some celebs wore ornate diamonds (we see you Eva Longoria!) the real message this year was that the pieces that they wore told a story - or represented some kind of values - ethics, heritage, conscientious luxury, etc.

We, at Kicky & Perky, are embracing moissanites rather than diamonds, simplicity and elegance without compromising on sparkle and brilliance. Our Ribbonia Collection, adorned by the evergreen Neha Malik for Cannes Fashion week, is how eco-conscious can be worn in an extravagant way.

This year however, it is less about size and more about the meaning, substance and sustainability.

Layering: Elevated & Everyday

Layering has been a part of Indian jewellery culture, particularly bridal wear, for forever. However, 2025 is the year where more day-to-night, wearable layering designs are reaching consumers. Something that had previously been kept for weddings and special occasions, layering is now quickly becoming a trend for everyday wear as well.
Layers are not just reserved for necklaces anymore and can apply to rings, earrings, bangles, and pendants.

Here are a few tips to help you on your layering journey:

Asymmetric Lengths Add Depth
It is important to combine chokers, mid-length necklaces, and long chains. The layering effect gives the jewellery more dimension and adds sophistication.

Beginning at the Centre
Choose a focal piece as your base and then explore what you can put around it. This can be imagined as a mini story of jewellery on the body.

Consistency vs. Contrast
You can either use one metal for a clean, minimalist look - or contrast with your metals - gold with silver, matte + polished textures for a stylish and eclectic mix of jewels.

Stackables are your Friends
Not sure how to combine pieces? Look for rigs or earrings that have been pre-styled, stackable sets for easy accessorizing without tons of thought.
Modern jewellery with boat neck blouse is a rising trend for chic and layered looks.

Be YOU

Trends may come and trends may go, but you go on forever (or a lifetime); and you deserve something that matches your mood, vibe and personality. Don't feel pressured to wear something trendy, make sure it is you.

Day-to-Night Transitions: Seamless Swaps

One of the most functional trends of 2025 is the belief that your jewelry can easily go from daytime to night.

• Daytime Looks
  Think straightforward lines, thoughtful layering, and smaller pieces will not be an uneven distraction at work or brunch.

• Nighttime Glam
  You can swap bold chokers, chunky hoops, or layered cuffs and magically turn that same outfit into a glamorous night look.

This versatility is precious in urban lifestyles where wearers want maximum style with very little effort.

Fusion of Traditional & Contemporary

2025 will also see the continued evolution of old mingling with new. Indian design elements such as Polki work, meenakari (enamel work) and temple motifs are being newly interpreted with cleaner outlines and looser forms to ensure daily wearability.
Convertible jewellery is also on the rise—pieces you can shake, mix and morph depending on your mood or event. This fusing practice honours our Indian roots and provides the modern consumer with the level of flexibility that they aspire to receive.

2025 is Bold, Conscious & You

The jewellery trends of 2025 are exciting, empowering and most importantly, wearable, whether it's big stones and statement earrings or glitzy moissanites and day to night layering... no matter if you are dressing up for a gala or simply going out for coffee, let your jewellery have its own voice. The future is bright - and it will be unapologetically you.
