Summer 2007 Costume Jewelry Trends

Give the bling a rest and put away inexpensive plastics because the classic look in costume jewelry comes to full blossom in the Spring of 2007. The ravishing beauty of gemstone, Murano style glass, shell, ceramics, and crystal glass are part of the picture, but there’s even more in this season’s glamorous trends that raise the bar in costume jewelry.

Jewelry Design in 2007 Costume Jewelry

The necklace set rises to new importance this season with long designs very in and layered jewelry continuing to be good.

Long necklaces and chain designs are primary, but costume jewelry trends hold something for everyone and you'll find chokers and short necklaces in geometric and hammered metals will provide a hand-made attractive look that will also be part of the trends this season.

Round shapes go beyond geometrics this season with old world looks using large disc pendants and metal rings spacing gemstone and glass show pieces. Earrings and bracelets use concentric circles and bold loops. The go to plating is silver, but the warmth of gold cannot be ignored as it climbs in popularity.

Summer Colors

White and grey are tops this season, with off-white, light brows and safe being next. Tropical Caribbean colors are the rage in bright shades of aqua, fuchsia, yellow, peach and teal.

Gemstone components are predicted to sell exceptionally well this summer with natural colors in fashion jewelry ranging from shell to wood. Murano style glass and crystal are constantly changing and fine-tuning their designs and selling better than ever this summer 2007 season. Expect to see Murano style jewelry setting new sales records this season.

Facets in Costume Jewelry Trends

Classic denim is beyond blue this season and will be gold in fashion sales with Southwest styles and designer appearances. Southwest motif's, silver plating and metal designs will be highlighted. Expect turquoise and coral to be top sellers and design criteria.

Spring previews began with designers showing new lines dominated by floral designs. Accessories, especially brooches, will reflect the garden theme with blossoms, butterflies, lady bugs, and dragonflies.

The classic look reflects values, and with values comes history. So expect retro looks to be a player with vintage designs reinventing the Victorian era. Antique platings, filigree designs, and cameos harken back to Victorian times that changed the direction of fashion jewelry forever.

A return to values also awakens spiritual and caring feelings. Metal bracelets and necklaces engraved with verses and words of hope are not new, but this season they will enjoy a resurgence of popularity. The trend has already started with some wholesalers reporting it is their hottest item.

Costume jewelry is indispensable this season, not only because it is the fashion trend, but because it reaches an historical high in aesthetic beauty.
