The Pearl Trend
The History of the Pearl
Long associated with the bourgeoisie and adored by the greatest fashion icons of the time, the pearl is making a comeback in fashion shows and in wardrobes.
Coco Chanel still inspires us today with her chic and timeless looks. A true avant-garde, she loved wearing pearls as a necklace over a classic black dress and made it her quintessential image. Other fashion icons participated in the advent of the pearl such as Audrey Hepburn and her pearl choker, Lady Diana , or the character of Blair Waldorf in Gossip Girl.
The return of the pearl
The pearl trend returns in 2024 with a reinterpretation of retro style. Pearls are incorporated into modern and innovative designs. They are making a comeback in many houses like Miu Miu , Dior , Versace and Givenchy . As for Chanel - precursor of the pearl trend - the famous house returns to the basics of its style by putting pearls back in the spotlight in all its forms .
How to wear pearls?
In 2024, we will wear the pearl as an earcuff or earring, as a necklace, as a ring, on our clothes, as well as on our shoes. This omnipresence of pearls in current fashion is particularly expressed through the two popular trends: ballerinas and headbands. Miu Miu's pearl ballerinas have been adopted by many brands and are the must-have shoes of the moment. For a trendy look, adding a beaded headband completes the look with a Blair Waldorf twist.
They adopted the pearl
The Pearlcore phenomenon is accentuated by the It-girls of our generation who wear pearls to perfection. With the trend for preppy and old money styles, pearls are the new best friends of fashion icons like Sophia Richie , Gigi Hadid and Hailey Bieber .
The pearl for men
We can note an evolution in the history of the pearl, since today it is no longer reserved only for women! Men also make them their flagship accessory like Thimothée Chalamet and Harry Styles , who like to wear a simple pearl necklace, or ASAP Rocky and Usher who wear pearls layered with more imposing jewelry.
