For every seasonal trend, there is a counter-trend. For spring 2018, the pragmatic, sporty functionality of monochromatic and neutral fashion has come out to contrast with the rainbow of Crayola colors and painterly prints we’ve already seen. It was utilitarian at its best with practical styles such as trench coats, drawstring jackets and jumpsuits with the use of essential details as decorative elements. In jewelry, this translates well into polished engravable dog tags with diamond edges, chunky link bracelets and signet style rings. These are no-frills but highly styled pieces that jewelry lovers will want to wear every day.
