Summer Jewellery Trends 2026/27: Five Styles Worth Wearing
A new season. A little more sunshine. And accessories that do all the talking.
Summer dressing is getting interesting. Think airy linen, barely-there layers, sun-warmed skin and jewellery that feels anything but an afterthought. This Australian summer, our edit is less about buying an entirely new wardrobe and more about finding the pieces that transform what you already own.
From sculptural gold to colour with a Mediterranean point of view, these are the five jewellery and accessory directions we're taking into summer 2026/27 — and how we'd wear them.
1. Sculptural gold: one piece, maximum impact
Consider this your permission to let one piece take centre stage. A bold gold cuff, an architectural bangle or a beautifully textured bracelet can make a white tank and relaxed trousers feel like an outfit.
The trick is restraint. Try one substantial cuff with rolled-up linen sleeves for daytime. After dark, add a sleek black dress and let the gold catch the light. For a more collected look, pair one statement piece with a slimmer bracelet in a contrasting texture.
Our styling note: Don't save your statement jewellery for a special occasion. Tuesday counts.

2. Statement earrings are the outfit
When the weather warms up and the layers come off, earrings get their moment. Sculptural hoops, sculpted florals and longer silhouettes look especially considered against simple necklines, crisp cotton and hair swept back from the face.
It's the easiest day-to-evening switch: oversized sunglasses and gold earrings for lunch; take off the sunglasses, change nothing else, and stay out for dinner.
We're drawn to the French sensibility of Aurélie Bidermann: expressive, artistic and just right with the most uncomplicated summer wardrobe.
3. A Mediterranean colour story
Not ready to abandon your neutral wardrobe? Neither are we. Instead, we're adding colour where it counts: a touch of turquoise against gold, a flash of emerald green or a piece that recalls long afternoons on the Mediterranean.
Colourful jewellery doesn't have to mean colourful clothes. Pair turquoise with chocolate brown, emerald with ivory or golden accents with an all-white look. One unexpected detail is often enough.
For a more symbolic take, explore the Greek-inspired motifs and green accents in our Hermina Athens collection.

4. Jewellery that fits your summer plans
Beach bag packed. Dinner booked. A change of jewellery? Not necessarily. Summer calls for comfortable, easy pieces you can style without overthinking: everyday hoops, sun-inspired studs and understated chains.
That's where Agapée comes in. Its water-resistant and waterproof styles are designed with daily wear in mind, making them a natural starting point for a lighter summer jewellery rotation. Always check each piece's care instructions before wearing it in water; pearls and delicate finishes deserve extra care.
Our formula: one effortless everyday piece, one oversized shirt and a spontaneous plan or two.
5. The '90s accessory we're wearing again
Some accessories have a way of making everything else look intentional. Enter the zigzag headband: a little '90s nostalgia, but styled for right now.
Wear yours with pushed-back hair, oversized sunglasses and your favourite gold earrings. It's unfussy, a little nostalgic and exactly the kind of detail that takes an off-duty outfit somewhere more interesting.
Black keeps it polished; tortoiseshell and warm neutrals soften the look. No elaborate styling required.
The Summer Edit, your way
Trends come and go. The pieces you love are the ones you find excuses to wear again. Whether you're a statement-cuff woman, a gold-hoop loyalist or someone who only needs one great accessory to finish the look, there's no single way to do summer.
Consider this your invitation to wear the good pieces now — from sunny days to whatever comes after.
