Jewelry

Clean lines, pared-back silhouettes and crisp tailoring are unanimous for modern brides. Though this sharp aesthetic does not mean bare—distinctive jewelry as part of the equation takes a modern moment to megawatt status. Impeccable metalwork, modern-cut diamonds and innovative shapes are among our favorite jewels for accentuating a contemporary bridal look just right, whether that means a graphic drop-earring, a uniquely set cocktail ring or hand-crafted bracelet. We’re even for mixing metals for an unexpected look, which once was a faux pas, now feels vivid and fresh with the right juxtaposition.

For brides toeing the line of tradition, imbuing a more classic yet pared-back gown with an exceptional bauble or two will perfectly offset the conventional shape and keep the overall look contemporary. A unique piece does not mean fully eschewing tradition—an asymmetrical pearl earring, modern pave cuff, or nuanced necklace will do the trick without feeling overtly edgy.

This modern aesthetic is all about mastering that extra bit shine without feeling run-of-the-mill and sans an exceeding amount of sparkle—it doesn’t always take a cascading chandelier earring or flashy pendant to feel extraordinary. High-shine metals whether gold, silver or a mix of both are entirely eye-catching, innovative settings give glittering diamonds new life, geometric shapes are striking in the daintiest form, even pearls appear current as out-of-the-box breathe in new life.

And while unique pieces feel so special, they can be worn with myriad outfits, lending that unexpected touch to even the simplest combinations. While on your bridal journey, accenting every outfit from your engagement party to your bridal shower to your rehearsal dinner with a one-of-a-kind piece is transcending. But thereafter, the best part about modern jewels is that they can be worn time and again long after your ceremony and honeymoon. It will feel special knowing you can incorporate your bridal jewelry into your everyday wardrobe, uplifting a T-shirt and jeans, jazzing up workwear, or for an anniversary look as a sentimental tactic for commemorating your wedding.

From super sleek to slightly more embellished, shop unique jewelry at every price point ahead to complete your bridal look with a contemporary aesthetic.
