Ready-to-wear designers sent a cross-cultural quilt of textures and patterns down the runway for fall/winter 2018/19. The result was a colorful patchwork from around the globe, all worked into cohesive coats and dresses. Fine jewelry designers have translated this feeling with a slightly more organic flair with a mix of brightly colored and more neutral gemstones in pieces with a painterly montage feeling. This continues the trend toward colored gemstones in everything from tonal versions to juxtaposing pale and vivid hues.
