COLETTE INSIDER: STATEMENT EARRINGS THROUGH THE DECADES...
Tara Alagich is our Head of Accessories. She is our first blogger for our Colette Insider series straight from the fashion team here at Colette by Colette Hayman HQ. Tara’s fashion icons are JLO for hair and beauty, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley for relaxed street style. Her guilty pleasure is hot chips and her celebrity crush is Tyson Beckford! |
One of the biggest trends to hit the runways recently is the return of the Statement Earring and it’s coming back in a major way! From Sculptural Metal and Oversized Tassels to Dramatic Danglers and Diamante Dazzlers – the Statement Earring trend is what you need to be getting involved in!
Our Head of Accessories, Tara Alagich had a few things to say about the trend everybody is talking about. “The statement earring trend has had me thinking about statement earrings through the decades and how they always seem to make a comeback. Thankfully the Colette by Colette Hayman buying team have been feeling this for a while. We have an amazing array of the most lust-worthy statement earrings in store for you! I had so much fun researching for this post and was so inspired by all the gorgeous statement earrings worn by the super models and fashion icons of the past and present!”
60’s OVERSIZED AND FUTURISTIC
Icon of the decade: Twiggy
70’s BIG HAIR, BIG HOOPS // DISCO
The 70s brings in a sense of wildness in jewel. The bigger the hair, the bigger the hoop - simple!
Icon of the decade: Cher
80’s ATTITUDE AND COLOUR
90’s CLEAN AND STRIPPED BACK
In the 90s we see an almost anti-glam moment. We introduce the stripped back and minimal look, giving some serious air-time to the statement earring.
Icon of the decade: Kate Moss
2000’s MISMATCHED AND ASYMMETRICAL
The early 2000s sees us showing off a different kind of statement - the mismatched and asymmetrical earring style.
Icon of the decade: Scarlet Johansson
PRESENT - ALL ABOUT STRUCTURE
Now we are seeing all the IT girls bring back the statement earring trend through structured and textured styles. Think ear cuffs, spiked styles or tassel-adorned pieces.
Icon of the decade: Cara Delevingne
