This next week tens of thousands of jewelers will converge on Las Vegas for the annual array of major jewelry shows to include Couture, JCK, Luxury, AGTA and a host of others. As the shows approach…keeping you in mind, McCaskill & Company, makes certain to stay abreast of trends. While there will always be classis, we turn to JCK for their prediction of the latest in fashion. Their predictions for hot designs and gemstones are:
Colored Gems – from bright to cool have become increasingly popular. The bigger and brighter the gemstone the more the demand.
Erica Courtney gemstones
Oversized Swiss Watches has become a trend with women swapping their 26mm bezels for 31mm sizes and larger.
McCaskill & Company Ceramic Watch
Layering/Statement Necklaces – stacked chokers and collars, multiple layers of pearls and short necklaces – anything that enhances the collarbone are on the fashion trend list.
Gurhan 24K Gold Vertigo Necklace
Natural Diamonds are fashionable in a variety of hues, shapes and applications.
Pamela Froman Naural Colored Diamond Rings
Geometric Pieces – although not on the classic or core list, linear styles or pyramid, triangle or sphere shapes have become increasing popular for those that seek something “different”.
Pamela Froman 'Empress' Ring with Moonstone
Opals were once associated with bad luck, but have shed this superstition to be one of the most popular gemstones today.
Classic Diamond Hoops/Studs have always been a classic, never going out of style.
Yellow Gold is considered the HOT metal. Although we have seen the resurgence in more fashion-forward pieces, the metal is making more inroads in the traditional realm.
Alex Sepkus 18K Gold and Gemstone Bracelet
This year’s shows promises to provide a mind boggling selection of all of these trends. We will be certain to hand select each piece of jewelry with you in mind to add to our collections from David Yurman, Erica Courtney, Pamela Froman, Alex Sepkus, Marco Bicego and others.
