SALMA HAYEK SHOWED off her curves in a form-fitting Gucci gown at The 2023 LACMA Art+Fim Gala. She complemented the sparkler of a gown with Boucheron’s Lierre de Paris asymmetrical flower pendant earrings, set with diamonds in pink gold. They were a refreshing change from her usual statement diamond looks, as was her ring with the gemstone center stone. But let’s stick with the earrings. They are on trend with the jewelry and fashion we saw on the spring 2024 international ready-to-wear runway shows. I know what you are thinking: The line Meryl Streep delivers as her character Miranda Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada, “Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking.” But botanicals have long been a source of inspiration for some of the most breathtaking jewels, and they continue to be desired by jewelry enthusiasts. And Boucheron knows how to create pieces that entice and enchant. They hit all the right marks: ear climbers, asymmetry and rose gold — all current directions, yet still designed to be lasting.
And the renowned brand isn’t the only company that is planting more unexpected takes on flowers for the ears. We are seeing them in a variety of unexpected incarnations in the studios of independent and emerging talents as the ear party continues to capture jewelry designers and consumers alike.
