Costume Jewelry Designs
Necklaces, necklace sets and layered jewelry are keeping pace. This 2007 season is showing long jewelry is quite "in".
Metal play a bigger part with spacing in long necklaces and long chain designs. But costume jewelry in a season that has something for everyone does not have to be long. Chokers and shorten necklaces offer hammered metals for a hand-made look and geometrics are good with circles being most important..
Beyond geometric shapes and designs we'll see round shapes of disc and metal rings with an olde world look. Earrings and bracelets in round shapes, loops and circles as well. Plating trends move towards silver but don't underestimate gold plating. A steady rise in the gold plated jewelry sales means continued growth in this area.
