Anklets Are the Unexpected Jewelry Trend of 2025 

This surprising accessory captured our attention—here’s how to elevate your ankles with anklets 

Fresh on the heels of Paris Fashion Week, forget everything you thought you knew about “must-have” jewelry, because 2025 has thrown us a dazzling curveball: anklets are back. We’re not talking about flimsy vacation souvenirs; we’re talking about sophisticated, statement-making pieces that, according to Diamond World Magazine, have seen an astounding 439 percent surge in demand over the past six months. Your ankles are about to become the new canvas for high-fashion adornment. 

For years, the humble anklet was relegated to beach trips or a subtle nod to bohemian style. But something shifted in the fashion winds, and now designers and trendsetters alike are embracing the charm and unexpected elegance of a beautifully adorned ankle.  

Here’s how to wear the trend—right now and throughout fall and holiday.

If you’re looking to add a pop of color and a touch of organic elegance, consider gemstone anklets. Imagine delicate chains adorned with tiny, vibrant emeralds catching the light with every step, or a strand of moonstones offering a subtle, ethereal glow. Whether it’s the calming blues of aquamarine or the fiery reds of garnets, these pieces bring personality and a touch of the earth’s natural beauty to your look. We love the unexpected sparkle to evening wear.

Diamonds Are For Ankles 

For those who crave undeniable luxury and sparkle, diamond anklets are the ultimate statement. We’re seeing everything from delicate chains featuring solitaire diamonds that dance in the light to intricate designs where pave diamonds create a continuous shimmer around the ankle.

Sleek Silver  

For a cooler, contemporary aesthetic, silver anklets are an absolute must-have. Sterling silver, with its bright luster and versatility, is gracing ankles everywhere, offering a refreshing alternative to gold. We love minimalist chains that exude understated elegance to more intricate designs featuring delicate filigree or playful charms.
