FINE Magazine's Top 5 Tassels & Fringe Looks


Tassel jewelry is super hot right now, but fringe detail on earrings and necklaces is also pretty in style. Even though it’s not exactly the most versatile of trends, it’s without a doubt one of the most bold, and can fashion a look that is dramatic, feminine, sexy, and even quirky.

Seen down the runways of designers such as Versace, St. Laurent, Kenzo, Nina Ricci, Mathew Williamson, and Sergio Rossi, their use of multi-layered chains and fringes have been dominating retail stores. With modernized metallic features, super thin strips, and vivid colors, this trend continues to be refreshed and made modern, and was even praised by Vogue UK as the trend for spring.

Adopt the trend into your own style by taking inspiration from Fine Magazine’s Top 5 catwalk looks -

1. The colored chain fringe and charms gives Versace’s necklaces a very whimsical feel.

2. St. Laurent also explored the fringe trend with his long gold and black fabric tassels. This fabric fringe creates a more relaxed look, giving a bohemian vibe to his collection.

3.. Kenzo created a stunning fringed bangle. I really like the impact the simple chains bring to this chunky cuff.

4. With its asymmetrical design and metallic sheen, Nina Ricci beautifully made this fringe gold necklace super modern. I also love the way the gold fringe looks paired with the hot pink polka dots. Paring fringe with bold colors and prints like this (in addition to spring pastels) is the perfect spring/summer look.

5. Fringe and tassel detailing on shoes and handbags are also major this season, displayed, for example, by designers like Sergio Rossi, whose fringed heels undeniably make a stunning statement!

No matter what your style is, fringe will fierce up your style -- don’t be timid about laying it up for a high drama look.
