No longer reserved for the dowager, brooches are once again in vogue as part of a wider trend of personalization. So where is the next generation pinning its precious statements? Business suits can get an eccentric feminine uplift with a brooch on the lapel or over the top shirt button. For off-duty hours, smaller brooches or pins (not necessarily matching) can tip collars or huddle in clusters on the breasts of jackets, shirts, knitwear and coats.
At the very top of the market, larger brooches remain a key component of highly desirable transformable jewelry that breaks down into smaller pieces. Once freed from designs like colliers or tiaras, brooches can be affixed to gowns, worn as pendants or even used as hair decorations.
