The unexpected accessory all the coolest brides are coveting

Forget dainty diamonds - this season’s jewellery is big and impactful

25 AUGUST 2026

While timeless pearls and diamond studs will always have their place, increasingly brides are turning to something with a little more presence - chunky, stacked bangles.

 

Today’s bangles are polished, sculptural and undeniably fashion-led. Seen everywhere from the catwalk to OWN Studio fittings, they provide a beautiful contrast to both sleek and minimalist gowns as well as those with a little more volume.  

 

Our fashion team’s advice is simple: stick to one metal and stack all the way up the forearm. Don’t worry about them matching perfectly - mix shapes and finishes from designers like Panconesi to really make an impact - and, most importantly, keep the rest of your look pared back.
