The Statement Earrings of Spring Summer 2020 To Wear Now
From natural materials, unexpected neons, to an updated look on the classic hoop, there was a lot of look out for in terms of statement earrings for Spring. So if you’re feeling experimental and ready to lean into something bold for the new season, here are the top earring trends we’ve taken away from the season, along with a couple of standouts pieces to shop for.
Natural materials
With sustainability increasingly making its presence known in the fashion industry, much of the jewelry of the season presented themselves in earth-friendly materials, from seashells, wood, stone and raffia, reminiscent of hidden treasures or vacation dressing and as seen from Prada to Marine Serre. Though the industry as a whole is still sorely lagging behind climate issues, there is markedly an aesthetic return to basics.

A Fresh Take on Hoops
Hoop earrings never really run out of style, but this season saw them multiplied in sizes, used in different materials, as well as asymmetrically adorned or single-earred.

Colourful Accents
With spring a time to refresh, bright accents and colours are reintroduced in new vigor. Forget the refined and classic colours of silver and gold, Spring 2020 is all about having fun and standing out in the most colourful way.

I Heart You
Love is in the air.. Or on your earlobe, at least. Heart-shaped jewels were spotted everywhere for Spring, making them a classic shape that lasts well beyond the Valentine’s season.

The single earring
Single earrings have been a mainstay on the runway for quite some time now, but this season, they come bigger and bolder. Sure, a bold pair of earrings do make an impact, but the unexpected asymmetry makes for an even greater one, with many coming in unsual elements, such as Loewe's belt-buckle earring, or Valentino's ornamental chandeliers.
