Just when it seemed pearls may have reached their peak, this year proved otherwise — they were everywhere.
Every look in Giorgio Armani’s latest Autumn/Winter 2024/2025 collection had pearl details and there were jackets and dresses fully draped in pearls. Pharrell Williams, the zeitgeist-defining musician and Louis Vuitton’s Men’s creative director, incorporated pearls into the second batch of his Titan capsule collection for Tiffany & Co. Even brands known for their diamond expertise, such as Messika and Repossi, ventured into pearl designs this year, notably with Messika’s high jewellery collection Midnight Sun and Repossi’s Pearl Variation, a new take on the brand’s signature Serti Sur Vide.
