Capricious fashion never ceases to amaze with its changeable mood: as soon as you get used to something, it takes a sharp turn and brings something completely opposite to the peak of popularity.
However, now fashion has calmed down a little, giving us a little break. She seemed to have decided: let women choose jewelry according to their taste, and more of it. In recent seasons, almost nothing has sunk into oblivion: new trends appear, but well-deserved ones are not forgotten!
So, our focus is on the most fashionable women's neck jewelry in 2022!
Rings
Fashionistas are tired of modesty and lack of reasons to go out.
The trend is for voluminous and asymmetrical rings, with an abundance of large, bright stones and rhinestones. But lovers of sophisticated jewelry should not be upset, since minimalism is still relevant.
This season it is popular to wear several rings at the same time, as well as to wear open rings with inserts of various crystals. The highlight of your look will be thin rings on the first phalanx, originally connected with a chain.
Long rings are in fashion, almost completely covering the phalanx of the finger. Multi-layer rings can stylishly combine several pieces in one.
It’s very easy to create the illusion of three-dimensional rings; put several pieces of jewelry on your finger at once.
Trends and current trends
If you ask an experienced stylist what jewelry is in fashion now, he will first be confused, and then burst into a long lecture about current trends. But if you extract from his words, it turns out that it is in fashion:
- chains and chains in all forms;
- bright and multi-layered decorations;
- ethnic and vintage motifs;
- geometric and asymmetrical shapes;
- natural materials;
- unexpected decisions;
- all the rest!
Neck jewelry for women in 2022 can be anything: modest, romantic, bright, catchy, provocative, expensive, cheap, plastic, natural. Modern neck jewelry does not tolerate restrictions and boundaries imposed from the outside. The main thing is how they fit into the specific look of a specific woman.
Fashionable neck jewelry for women confidently outshines expensive jewelry, because only with its help can you create bright city looks without special material costs. This season, it is better to leave laconic gold jewelry for the office, and especially chic ones - to wear only on special occasions, for representative purposes. Exceptions are the wedding ring and the basic chain.
The inimitable Coco Chanel was a big fan of costume jewelry and wore it mostly. And this despite the fact that fans constantly presented Coco with gold and diamonds! “People with good taste wear jewelry. The rest have to wear gold,” said the fashion goddess.
Silver is not as expensive and pretentious a metal as gold. You obviously don’t have to be careful with it, so silver can be worn at any time of the day and for any purpose. And jewelry with all kinds of sacred symbols, ethnic motifs, vintage themes even fall into the category of trendy!
Chains
Chains remain a luxurious and sophisticated option for your look. It's chains, not chains! Massive and heavy, they continue to be trendy in 2022. Chains made of precious metals look ideal, but high-quality jewelry is also allowed.
Wide-weave chains, due to the contrast, ideally emphasize the elegance of the neck and posture of the owner.
At the peak of popularity, designers leave chokers and short necklaces made in a variety of styles in the new season. Such jewelry can be decorated with a powerful single weave or weave of several chains, decorated with a large number of stones.
The most daring decisions for neck decoration are up to you!

Cuff earrings remain popular in the coming year. With them it is easy to create a romantic and gentle image.
What metals will be in fashion
Gold, platinum and silver are still in favor. Stainless steel can be added to them. Each of the metals looks organic and luxurious. Beneficially complements this or that image. Moreover, in the coming season, mixing metals will be relevant. Even on the hands in the form of rings.
If earlier the combination of two shades of metals on one hand looked disharmonious, today this is acceptable. The main thing is to choose rings in the same theme or put on one hand a conductor jewelry made of two types of metals - yellow and white.
The same applies to necklaces and chains around the neck, and bracelets on the wrist.

Pearl
Fashionable jewelry made from strings of pearls is a symbol of femininity and aristocracy.
Today, these jewelry are no longer the privilege of royalty, aristocracy and celebrities. A necklace or earrings made of pearls is now in the wardrobe of every fashionista.
Chokers, bracelets, earrings and other jewelry made from natural pearls (such pearls have an irregular shape) are of great value.
Conservative classics and minimalism remain in fashion, but non-standard designs in pearl jewelry are also welcome.
The magic of gold and silver in one piece of jewelry
Bicolor, that is, a combination of gold and silver, did not appear yesterday.
The idea of creating jewelry using different metals dates back to the ancient Egyptians. It should be noted that in ancient Egyptian culture, jewelry craftsmanship was at an incredibly high level: the craftsmen of that time created amazingly beautiful jewelry with intricate patterns, images of animals and the use of various stones. At that time, these were not just beautiful accessories: as a rule, jewelry had a sacred meaning and personified various forces of nature or were amulets.
For example, bracelets were often decorated with the image of the Eye of Horus, which was credited with protective properties, round gold earrings symbolized the disk of the sun, and silver was associated with the moon and the goddess Isis. The combination of gold and silver, which was common in Ancient Egypt, was also given a special, magical meaning.
By the way, it was in the Ancient Egyptian civilization that a special alloy of gold and silver was developed - electrum, which looks like platinum and was often used to make jewelry.
Dimensional hoops
Hoop earrings are a fashion accessory for the 2022 season. Interesting models are presented by fashion houses such as Sies Marjan and Carolina Herrera. Modern design is available in various variations. These are the double hoops from Proenza Schouler and the door knocker style from Balenciaga.

A charming accessory are earrings in the shape of a lion door knocker. The original solution was presented by designers from Natia x Lako.
Items in accessories
Fashion trends include the use of everyday items in accessories. Earrings in the form of pins allow you to create an original look. Accessories look extravagant and add zest to traditional clothing.
Regular pins are used as earrings. This is a rather unusual decoration for earlobes.
Geometry and stereometry
Massiveness in jewelry and costume jewelry goes hand in hand with geometric shapes. They can be either correct or contain undertones of provocative asymmetry. Triangles, rectangles, circles, as well as more complex geometric shapes and volumetric bodies are held in high esteem.
Large balls are back in trend. They can be implemented in earrings, necklaces, bracelets, brooches, hair jewelry - in a word, in the entire truly feminine arsenal. Jewelry with metal balls of different sizes, interspersed with precious and semi-precious stones, looks amazing. Costume jewelry with balls made of artificial polymers, wood, glass and ornamental stones is also relevant.
Decor with colorful stones
Spring brings renewed energy to wardrobes. Dresses made of light fabrics and open sandals are complemented by accessories made of multi-colored stones. Bright jewelry will add vigor to any look. You can choose models in a variety of shades. An assortment of colorful products is presented on the catwalks. Designers boldly play with proportions and use original color schemes.
Natural stones of unique shades are an inspiration for famous designers. Blue sapphires are in fashion. Stones in classic colors are popular. Stones of various textures are used. This can be an imitation of primitive processing, rough matting and the texture of wet sand. Glossy surfaces are also popular.
Fashionable options include multi-colored accessories of unusual configurations. These earrings are ideal for special occasions.
A flower necklace looks unusual. Pearls and crystals are used to make it. With the help of bright accessories you can decorate any dark outfit.
Colorful shades wonderfully lift your spirits and add positive emotions.
Fashionable silver jewelry for men
Men's silver jewelry is not as diverse as women's, but no less interesting. This season, jewelry fashion invites the stronger sex to focus on clear lines, simple and strict geometric patterns. A non-standard texture will make even a product that is simple in design interesting: the surface of a ring, for example, can be not only classically smooth, but also grainy, matte, embossed with notches.
Silver men's rings made in a vintage style are considered fashionable - such products are often considered amulets and must be chosen especially carefully. Silver signets are relevant at all times: they do not attract attention, but at the same time they are brutal, making a stylish male image complete and attractive in the eyes of women who always pay attention to men’s hands.
Do you want a show of individuality? Customize fashionable silver jewelry (such as a ring and neck chain) in the same style or have it engraved . The price of such silver jewelry is higher than factory production, but over the years such a product will become a real family heirloom and will be passed on from generation to generation.
For men wearing earrings, rings and studs remain, which can be inlaid with stones (sometimes with diamonds)
If we talk about neck chains , then both classic models and deliberately large products with thick massive links remain popular. Layering is also recommended for a masculine look: for example, you can wear both a thin and a massive chain at the same time.
Large pendants
They will be worn either on very short chains and laces, near the neck, or on very long ones, below the solar plexus.
As with rings, the pendant should be unusual and expressive. Animalistic models, surrealism, and neo-baroque remain in trend. In general, if you see some absolutely “crazy” silver pendant, don’t hesitate to buy it, it’s probably very fashionable.
The bold and extravagant can wear several pendants on one chain at once. Or several chains with different pendants.
Single accessories
Unusual decor was proposed by designers Marnie and Valentino. The trend with single decor has been relevant since last season. Many fashion houses complement ensembles with one large earring. With the help of a stylish accessory you can create an extravagant and bold look.
A single earring with crystal fringe looks stylish. The triangular hairpin is decorated with crystals and looks charming in the created ensemble. The accessory is ideal for a festive dinner.
An unusual accessory is an earring with a buckle. This type of decor will add personality to any look.

Massive jewelry
Most often, at the shows of famous experts, massive bracelets in the shape of a chain were seen. This is a continuation of the trend for massive chains, but for an everyday format we offer voluminous but wearable jewelry for 2022. Choose a model that will not restrict your movements when performing routine tasks. This can be a wider chain or bulky links.
In addition to chains, massive bracelets can have an elaborate shape. For example, a bracelet with large precious stones. If you want to add extravagance to your outfit, stylists suggest taking a closer look at models in the steampunk style.
Multi-layering
If you have a large jewelry box, now is the best time to get out all your chains and pendants. Jewelry fashion for 2022 is characterized by layering, but this is best demonstrated through a necklace. Experts suggest combining three to five chains of different lengths and volumes. These can be thin and neat chains with miniature pendants that will be appropriate in a business style, for example, for working in the office. A great combination would be three chains with medium-sized pendants, which are worn on top of a black turtleneck - an absolute trend for 2022.
For an evening event, you can experiment with textures: add more chains, wear voluminous accessories without pendants, or classic jewelry with several pendants at the same time. Chains with pendants and charm beads will look interesting, but for the top layer, that is, for the narrowest accessory.
Chaumet "Josephine"
The French House of Chaumet, founded in 1780, paid tribute to one of the brand's first clients, Josephine de Beauharnais, and dedicated a collection of jewelry to her. Josephine is Chaumet's ideal client and the embodiment of the brand's DNA. A strong, independent empress, a style icon of her time and a role model for her subjects, she knew how to combine lightness and elegance in her looks and, of course, adored sophisticated jewelry.
Chaumet “Josephine” The empress’s favorite cut, “pear,” was taken as the basis. Pear-shaped bezels on rings, necklaces, even the dial of the Josephine Aigrette watch refer to this type of cut. The collection also included references to the romance between Josephine and Napoleon I. Some rings, decorated with diamonds and sapphires, became an allusion to the Toi et Moi engagement party.

Invisible necklace
Although microdermal appeared in ancient civilizations, the idea of piercing last year became almost the main trend in jewelry fashion. This is not quite a classic piercing, since the skin is not pierced, but incised. The implantation of a gemstone into the skin occurs as follows: an incision is made on the chest and an anchor is installed, on top of which it is secured with a twist. The precious stone actually acts as a wrap. The procedure is completed in just a few minutes, but there are possible serious complications due to care and further healing.
In 2022, experts proposed an alternative - a safe way to follow the trend. A pebble on a fishing line or an invisible necklace began to be worn back in 2022, but its peak in popularity is predicted for next year. The decoration is a small precious (or natural) mineral suspended on a dense but very thin, almost invisible to the eye, chain made of precious material. When choosing an invisible necklace, we recommend looking at translucent stones, such as diamond or Swarovski cubic zirconia.
