In brief: for the autumn-winter 2026/27 season, pearls are worn more freely: baroque and irregular shapes, layering multiple necklaces, mixing gold and silver, dark and colored pearls, and even pearl jewelry for men. Here you will find the style directions and LELUNE models to interpret them.
1. Baroque pearls and irregular shapes
Imperfection is the strong point: every baroque pearl is different from the next, making the jewelry unique. They look great with knitwear and shirts, even during the day. Learn more in the baroque pearl necklace guide.
2. Layering: multiple necklaces together
A pearl choker paired with a thin chain or a longer necklace creates depth. The secret is to vary the lengths by at least 4–5 cm. Start with the 925 silver Glamour necklaces to experiment on a budget, or the 18kt gold LELUNE necklaces for a more precious result.
3. Mixing metals
Yellow gold, rose gold, and silver are no longer mutually exclusive: worn together, they give a more personal look. If you must choose only one metal, read 925 silver or 18kt gold.
4. Dark and colored pearls
Tahitian pearls, with their gray and metallic reflections, and pink-toned pearls add character to the classic white strand. See the pink pearl selection and the differences between varieties in the guide to Akoya, Tahitian, and freshwater pearls.
5. Earrings take center stage
From small pearl studs to dangling earrings, pearl earrings are the easiest way to update a look. Find inspiration in modern pearl earrings and in the LELUNE gold and Glamour silver collections.
6. Stackable bracelets
Multiple thin bracelets on the wrist, with pearls alternated with chains or stones, are one of the easiest formulas for everyday wear. See the elegant pearl bracelet and the Glamour bracelets.
7. Pearls for him, too
Pearl necklaces and bracelets are becoming a permanent fixture in the male wardrobe, often paired with dark stones. Discover the for him selection.
8. Mother-of-pearl and iridescent reflections
Alongside pearls, there is growing interest in mother-of-pearl, with its reflections that change with the light. One example is the Sidney line.
