The power of jewellery can never be underestimated. More so when the last year and a half have taught us the importance of owning and showing off a fierce necklace, those dainty pearls and your heirloom pieces on those Zoom calls with coworkers, family, and friends.
It definitely was not a surprise to see designers harness this power on and off the runway. AiSPi spotted some major bling on the runway—from over-the-top neckpieces to disco-ball reminiscent earrings and more.
With the end-of-the-year here (we can’t believe it is here so soon either), we know you’ve been giving your New Year’s Eve outfit a lot of thought. But have you thought about your jewellery at all? For those who have neglected to pay attention to the trend, let us enlighten you.

Shimmer and sparkle surprise
Bring On The Bling
Fall 2021 was filled with extravagant designs in jewellery—from earrings that resembled chandeliers to necklaces that drew a lot of attention. We especially loved Etro’s long earrings made with sparkling diamonds. Chanel’s pearl-on-pearl layered jewellery pieces were enough to make any outfit stand out! And Alberta Ferretti’s crushed metal oversized earrings were enough to make anyone fall in love with jewellery.

With couture designers embracing the sparkle trend so seamlessly, we had to wonder—how did our favourite European designer’s interpret the same?
Shrimps
Although this London-based brand had a lot of lovely designs, the Shrimps Earrings caught our eye. This statement piece features silver-toned shrimps covered with sparkling diamantés and finished with a large teardrop faux pearl and two delicate pearl-topped antennae.
Pepper Chocolate
These chandelier earrings embody everything the brand stands for–uniqueness, style and artisanship. This design by the Milan-based label features gold shells with a dangling chandelier design with pearls studded across it. We can’t wait to wear these, can you?
Alcoolique
Shaped like flowers, these earrings will elevate your NYE outfit. Featuring stones of different sizes on a silver base, they sparkle more than perhaps even the moon. Made in Italy, they add a sense of sophistication and elegance to your look without seeming gaudy.
