Milano Fashion&Jewels
English language
From the analysis of the contemporary scene it is possible to identify trajectories, emerging themes that define aesthetic connotations, inspiration for companies and designers in the sector.
The digital talk, organised by Homi Fashion&Jewels in collaboration with Poli.design, aims to present the trends for jewellery for the next two years, in terms of aesthetic, shapes, materials and innovation.
After an introduction to the topic, the two macro-trends will be analysed: Slow Renaissance and Inner Identity. Each trend covers inspirational mood boards, lifestyle boards describing the target consumer of reference and micro-trends.
Lastly, the talk includes a moment of discussion with guests, professionals and experts in the sector, who will tell their point of view, offering a direct opinion on the contemporary landscape.
This session will be of interest to independent designers, companies and professionals working in the jewellery sector.
· How are jewellery trends identified?
· What are the new trends for 20-22?
· What will be the new aesthetic connotations that the trends will bring?
· How can these trends affect the design and production activity of a jewellery brand?
