The return of the pearl bracelet to the catwalk, more original than ever
The models spotted on the catwalk leave no doubt: the pearlsthis year, they focus on size. Word of Chanel: the maison that has always made pearls its trademark, in Autumn-Winter 2025/2026 abandons the delicacy of smaller formats to focus on maxi bracelets with a strong visual impact, paired with equally eye-catching necklaces and body chains. The result? Bijoux and jewels capable of capturing the interest of the new generations and updating the jewelery box of those who already own the classic model.
Story of an iconic jewel
It is thanks to Chanel, after all, that these precious items are still synonymous with class today. Mademoiselle Coco was the first to combine real and fake pearls in her creationsfreeing them from that aristocratic rigor resulting from a centuries-old history. With her they transform into a symbol of democratic elegance, to be worn nonchalantly over tweed suits, striped sweaters and little black dresses: a silent revolution, which has forever redefined the way of conceiving this iconic jewel.
