Trends, styles and predictions for social and cultural scenarios. But market scenarios will also dominate the upcoming Vicenzaoro September event. The Italian Exhibition Group's international gold and jewellery fair. It will take place from 5 to 9 September at the Vicenza Exhibition Centre - Italy.
Trendvision Jewellery + Forecasting will present them during two highly anticipated events. Trendvision Jewellery + Forecasting is Vicenzaoro's independent observatory, under the direction of Paola De Luca. On Saturday 6 September, the Vicenzaoro audience will be transported to the “quantum” age of jewellery. This thanks to the interventions of international artists, designers, journalists and cultural consultants. On Sunday 7 September, on the other hand, the new Trendbook 2027+ will be presented. The «Manifesto» book for all professionals. Rich in content and strategies for the development of future collections and predictions for the evolution of contemporary jewellery.
Beyond the discussion: The Quantum Age.
Jewellery is no longer just an ornament. It is a cultural and technological artefact, a multidimensional, symbolic, articulated and emotional language. This will therefore be the starting point of the event entitled «The Quantum Age. Jewels and the Convergence of Cultural Transformations». It is scheduled for Saturday 6 September from 11 am at the Palladio Theatre of the Exhibition Centre.
After an introduction by Paola De Luca, the Lebanese artist Samar Younes, theorist of Quantum Culture™ and founder of Samaritual, will speak on the theme of jewellery as a «technological connection» between tradition, nature and visual design. She will be followed by Archana Thani, Indian curator and journalist, jewellery editor of Vogue India. While the Chinese cultural consultant, Helen Mao, will present an analysis of the changes characterising the market in the Red Dragon Country. Where status symbol jewellery is becoming a tool to connect with the «Joy Economy».
Finally, Fabio Salini, a visionary designer of high-quality jewellery, will share his radical and experimental vision. Where unexpected materials as well as an inner search transform the very concept of jewellery.
Trendbook 2027+, «Trends for Breakfast»
On Sunday 7 September it is the turn of «Trends for Breakfast». During which the new Trendbook 2027+ entitled The Quantum Age will be presented (Educational Hub, 10.30am). Now in its 23rd edition, the international industry reference publication provides jewellery industry insiders with style trend predictions for 2027 in a new and completely redesigned format.
The book will have three main sections: consumer culture, developments and opportunities in the jewellery sector, Forecast 2027+. On Sunday the 7th it will focus on the 2026-27 market opportunities. With information on gold and precious metals, coloured gemstones, diamonds (natural and laboratory). But also bridal wear, pearls, technologies and innovations and luxury jewellery. Style predictions for 2027+ will revolve around five key themes. With evocatively named Modular Core, Dynamic Movement, Coded Couture, Convergences and Neo-Rituals.
Trends for Autumn - Winter 2025/26: Geometries, Colours, Movement and Minimalism.
The common thread that connects the trends for the next Autumn-Winter 2025-2026 will be jewellery as a dynamic expression of the self. Deeply connected to emotional resonance, adaptability and personal development.
According to Trendvision Jewellery + Forecasting, four directions will define the coming season. Modular Geometries will explore jewellery as a system of stackable, interchangeable yet reconfigurable elements. Thus stimulating creativity, adaptability and a circular collection. With clean lines yet adaptable constructions. It will give users the power to create and reinvent their own style over time. Stacking rings, detachable rings, interchangeable charms as well as reconfigurable clasps will become the basis of personal expression.
Spectrum Play will put colour in the spotlight: subtle shades, enamel streaks as well as layered shades. This direction will capture the emotional as well as visual vibrancy of modern life. Beaded necklaces, stacking rings, mismatched earrings and layered necklaces. They will offer endless style possibilities, allowing the wearer to compose their identity, shade by shade. Ethical materials, such as recycled plastics, reclaimed enamels and micro-mosaics, will connect this playful aesthetic with a conscious will.
Instead, Quiet Elegance will embrace sobriety and emotional depth. Based on minimalism, it favours soft textures, refined shapes and sustainable materials, offering calm elegance and lasting value. Satin gold, matte platinum and recycled metals will add texture effortlessly. Subtle pearls and diamonds will be set with restraint, celebrating intimacy rather than showmanship.
Finally, Dynamism will introduce motion as a design language. Inspired by Futurism and Deco geometry, it will channel movement through fluid silhouettes, kinetic shapes and a variety of materials that respond to the rhythm of the body: curved cuffs, articulated pins and expandable rings will capture the transformation of matter.
