The 8 best pieces of chunky jewellery to add to cart right now

The new season is officially here, and there's no time to waste. 

They don't call it spring cleaning for nothing, the wardrobe refresh starts right now and that includes your jewellery collection. 

An overhaul feels long overdue, and this season we are totally spoilt for choice when it comes to chunkier, more heavy-duty pieces.

As we emerge from winter, we're all about levity. Shedding thick knits in favour of airy sheers and floaty meshes is our sartorial focus right now, and offsetting these fabrics with chunky cuffs, weighty chains and sculptural earrings can make for a chic juxtaposition.

SS24 Jewellery Trends 

Recent runways dictate that chunky styles still deserve a place on your accessory radar for SS24. Gilded Y-shaped chains stood out at Tom Ford, some skinny, resembling bolo ties, others with a weightier, more artisanal feel, snaking from the collarbone right the way down to the navel, flanked by unbuttoned silky shirts.

Also at Tom Ford, ornate, textured cuffs made an appearance, whereas the style was reinterpreted in cool chrome, almost dystopian in sentiment, at Tory Burch.

Everything was coming up roses at Palomo Spain via the label's supersize creations. Metallic chokers, ear climbers and other iterations brought the classically romantic floral to the fore.

Similarly at Chanel, statement blooms were on the cards, affixed to chain chokers and styled asymmetrically for offbeat, holiday glamour.
