Forevermark trend report 2018

Update 4: Forevermark, hosted the 7th edition of the Forevermark Forum in Delhi with the theme,  ‘The Future Is Now’ & also tabled the report is available now!

From the international fashion and art scenes, to social movements and celebrity culture, Forevermark has identified the influences and inspirations that it considers will shape desire for diamonds in 2018 with the Forevermark Trend Report 2018.

“With the Forevermark Trend Report 2018 we have identified four key trends which will inspire jewellery collections combining timeless allure with contemporary appeal,” says Federica Imperiali, Head of New Product Development at Forevermark. “Each theme’s unique blend of imaginative aesthetics and emotional significance presents wonderful opportunities for the creation of new and exciting designs”.

Spring/Summer 2018 Trends:

THINK PINK: Is the ‘Millennial Pink’ phenomenon that has given this most traditionally feminine of hues a new lease of life, re-packaging pink as a colour synonymous with empowerment and self-knowledge.

Rose gold settings bring warmth to jewellery designs, and contrast richly with fire-filled diamonds.

This versatile tone supports the creation of fashion-inspired looks including stacks of slimline bangles, fingers full of rings, layered fine chain necklaces and mix-and-match earrings.

“In celebration of confident women who know what they want, and how they wish to look, Think Pink encourages the creation of singular jewellery statements, both in terms of the materials used, and the way the jewellery is worn,” says Federica Imperiali.

GARDEN OF WONDERS: Floral motifs are an always popular reference which can be updated with the changing of the seasons. From delicate buds to exuberant blooms, playing with scale ensures there is a look to suit every taste.

“Looking for a metaphor to convey the complexity of diamonds was no simple task,” says Federica Imperiali. “But we found the perfect parallel in the concept of gardens which are simultaneously enchanting, resilient and filled with energy. Like the diamond, gardens epitomise nature at its most entrancing”.

Autumn/Winter 2018 Trends:

GAME OF SHAPES: From simple outlines, to unexpected arrangements of contrasting forms, shape can be applied to diamonds themselves, as well as their settings. Sleek pavé lines, or delicate square-top prongs, create a striking backdrop for crisp round brilliant solitaires.

Meanwhile multiple cuts such as a pair of Square, Oval or Cushion cut diamonds surrounded by pave set round brilliants, show the sophistication that can be achieved when combining different shapes. “Geometry, proportion, scale and silhouette offer a variety of ways to adapt this trend which has shape at its heart.”

TIME CAPSULE: Time Capsule references the aesthetics of antiquity where the columns of Grecian temples and the curves of Roman urns are replicated in metalwork and into which Forevermark diamonds are set. Whilst the fabulous court of Queen Marie Antoinette, is another one of the many periods that provide creative spark for contemporary classics.

“Archival jewellery collections are a wonderful source of inspiration, with their wealth of history and craftsmanship, quintessential styles can be updated to suit modern tastes whilst preserving a sense of history.”
