From Eyewear To Body Jewelry, New York Fashion Week Street Style Made A Statement With Accessories

From oversized earrings to maximalist necklaces, it was clear that accessories took center stage among street-style stars this season.

Though New York Fashion Week’s Fall 2023 shows draw to a close, we’re left still reeling from the season’s fanfare, hopeful for what the rest of the year has in store. From the fantastical shapes of Thom Browne, inspired by children’s books, to the fluid tailoring and understated urban sophistication of The Row.

It’s clear that the collections coming out of the Big Apple cover all bases of the current zeitgeist. The front row was just as exciting, with brand-new talents gracing the coveted seats alongside long-time staples.

Likewise, this season’s street style marked its own narrative within current fashion trends, with a heavy emphasis on statement jewelry. The fashion week goers spared no effort when it came to accessorizing for the latest shows.

More than bright and loud garments, it was the bijouterie that served as the focal point of many outfits. This time around, the bling took center stage. See our compilation of the best statement jewelry at New York Fashion Week below:

Oversized Earrings

Though a dainty set of piercings is still a common sight around the stylish show-goers, oversized shoulder-grazing earrings were a definite stand out around the city. From floral motifs to a whole new meaning to grandma’s pearls, earrings were a favorite choice this season to go all out on.

Maxed Out Chokers

When it comes to dressing up a tired outfit, there’s nothing quite like putting on a big necklace. Whether it’s a diamond choker worthy of a magpie’s eye, or a chunky set of chains, a maxed-out choker is the best way to amp up a low-key look.

Body Bijoux

As Marilyn Monroe says in the 1953 title Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, “I just love finding new places to wear diamonds!”

Street-style stars did just that, with many of them taking opting for the latest in jewelry placements; the body harness. From diamante bustiers to pearl bodices, there was no shortage of unique ways to wear more bling.

Eyecatching Eyewear

These days, a good pair of sunnies do more than shade your eyes from the light; they’re an extension of your outfit. Depending on your outfit, there’s a pair of glasses out there to take it further; from sleek classic black cat-eyes to futuristic shield shades, and everything in between.
