The most conspicuous absence this fashion month hasn't been Yasmin, surprisingly. In fact, it's been the lack of jewellery and accessories on perennial arm-party favourites. Think Christine Centenera and Taylor Tomasi-Hill. Yes. Taylor Tomasi-Hill. She of the riotous arm jewellery candy that often mixes cuffs with bangles with chains and watches. She who, it has been said, would jangle as she walked. She who has made her reputation as the veritable queen of accessories. Look at that! Not even a watch! And Christine, pared back and the atypical modern woman as per, with a single string bracelet and fine chain, looking like something magnificent from the future. What is going on here? I like to think that it is a reaction against this, and a move towards delicate, simple jewellery. For the past couple of months or so I've really enjoyed building up my fine jewellery collection, just wearing one piece of at a time and making my statement that way. TTH is the accessories editor at Marie-Claire and should know a thing or two about that. Her spreads for the magazine are often complete cacophonies of accessories - bright backgrounds covered with product in bulging, bountiful presentations. I'm excited to think that next season her spreads might be more simple and minimal. It seems more modern, more, well, grown up to wear less jewellery. To find your favourite pieces and stick to them. It's not about having a uniform, but rather about being comfortable with knowing your tastes completely. There is a self-confidence that comes from wearing just one or two pieces at a time. You don't have to think too hard, you just pick up your favourites from the dresser where you leave them and slip them on, almost without thinking. After a while people notice that you wear them all the time and they become an inherent part of you. And that is the best thing about jewellery.
