Our Top 5 Brilliantly Bold Brooches
Nothing makes a bold statement as much as a luxurious, sparkling crystal brooch. Adding a sparkly touch to a jacket, hat, or handbag can transform an everyday item into a glamourous fashion piece to make an instant impression.
century, floral spray brooches which had a centre flower that could move when worn, created a trembling effect when the gemstones moved in the candlelight. And in the art deco era, large baguette stone brooches in geometric designs were worn as dress clips, pinned to the straps, necklines, collars and cuffs.
In more recent times, brooches have been worn by many famous and influential people. Queen Elizabeth is known for having an extensive array of brooches in various gemstones. Princess Diana also wore stunning crystal brooches to accessorise evening gowns or blazers, including Butler & Wilson’s snake brooch and military star brooch. Former US secretary of state, Madeleine Albright, even used her eclectic pin collection as diplomatic weaponry, to pose non-verbal statements about various political affairs.
Beautiful crystal-encrusted brooches are not just for special occasions. A colourful, eye-catching brooch looks just as dazzling on eveningwear as on a plain white t-shirt, floral summer dress, chiffon scarf or plain sweater.
