As we head into the AW25 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 while clothes might steal most of the attention, it’s often accessories—especially jewellery—that deliver the finishing touch 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 a delicate gold hoop or making a bold statement with a sculptural necklace, jewellery offers an easy way to experiment, without having to reinvent your whole wardrobe. This is particularly potent 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 it 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 and have taken the fashion world by storm. One thing that really sets them apart is their bold pendants molten metal, sculptural shapes or something a bit more fun like an animal or sun emblem, their styling options are endless and instantly add a statement finish to an outfit.

Charms are back with a bang and we're seeing them on necklaces, bracelets, brooches and even key chains as of late.
