Your Classic Hoop Earrings Will Be All the Rage This Year — Here's Why (2023)

Your Classic Hoop Earrings Will Be All the Rage This Year — Here's Why (1)

No matter your style — classic, Parisian, retro, streetwear, '90s fashion — the right bit of bling can make your entire look pop. That's why we chatted with Francesca Simons, fine jewelry publicist and founder of Francesca Simons Consulting and Jessica Kiraly, director of public relations at Mega Mega Projects, a jewelry consultancy in New York City, and other experts about the 2023 jewelry trends making their way into the spotlight. (Hint: This year, stunning emeralds, timeless pearls, shoulder-drop earrings and gold cuffs are a few styles that make the cut.)

According to Simons, jewelry lovers of all ages are again leaning toward classic, timeless pieces, like gold signet rings and one-of-a-kind heirlooms. "Older generations love to wear diamonds, gold and gemstones — it's the same for Gen Z," she says. "Gen Z sometimes are more price-conscious but they're interested in the same styles."

Maximalism is another trend taking the lead, one Kiraly believes is heavily influenced by social media. "Instagram has made the concept and practice of lots and lots of layers really popular," she notes. "I'm also seeing many requests for shoulder-dusting earrings."

As you browse these 2023 jewelry trends below, we hope you'll find a gorgeous new treasure to add to your collection. These stunning picks also make thoughtful gifts for loved ones — leaving any minimalist or maximalist absolutely obsessed.
