Runway shows this week are encouraging designers to wear jewelry the ‘wrong’ way, with chunky necklaces on bags and pearls under sheer dresses, according to Elle. The trend, described as a DIY‑inspired, texture‑focused twist on traditional jewelry styling, was highlighted at Magda Butrym’s spring/summer 2027 show, where extra‑long pearl necklaces were trapped under sheer dresses and hanging from the bottom of cropped jackets. The designer cited her Polish heritage and said the restyling was “for the female gaze” and “Slavic Marilyn”. Other shows, such as The Row’s resort 2027 collection and Fforme’s spring/summer 2027 show, also featured unconventional placements, including necklaces on bags and beaded strands under turtlenecks.
