Tiffany and Co Necklace: Chunky Collar
Chunky collar necklaces were a recurring theme on fall 2024 runways. Loro Piana and Tom Ford paired simple tops and sweaters with stand out chunky chain collar necklaces. Sculptural metal statement jewelry were also prominent accessories for Chanel and Carvan. If you want everyone to notice your jewelry first, you need a bold chunky collar necklace. We love a Tiffany & Co., Angela Cummings Vintage Gold Necklace and Earring Set as a bold accent to a demure crew neck cashmere sweater.
A bold gold blossom link shaped Tiffany and Co Paloma Picasso necklace is another collar style that embraces fall's hottest trend. Gold collar necklaces add the perfect update to your basic fall sweaters.
A Tiffany and Co collar necklace is a bold, elegant piece that sits gracefully around the neck, often designed to make a striking statement. These necklaces are typically wider and more structured than traditional chains, with designs that range from minimalist to intricately detailed. Chunky gold jewelry is also a major trend for fall 2024, and Tiffany and Co is a timeless choice that you can wear for seasons to come.

Chunky stacked bracelets were all over the fall runways paying homage to 70s and 80s more is more aesthetic. Chanel and Fendi both featured statement cuffs and stacked bangles. The Tiffany and Co Elsa Peretti Gold Doughnut bangle is the perfect bracelet to stack for fall. It's unique design is both bold and makes a statement alone or stacked with other bangles. We also love Tiffany and Co bangles that mix materials like onyx and mother of pearl. These Tiffany bangles scream 70s and 80s fashion but remain modern.
