As Paris played host to the Autumn/Winter 2025 couture shows, another dazzling spectacle unfolded behind the scenes. In the hushed elegance of private salons, luxury hotels and sweeping rooftop suites, the world’s leading jewellers unveiled their latest high jewellery masterpieces—each one a testament to artistry, heritage and innovation.
This season, nature reigns supreme as a muse. From flora and fauna to celestial wonders, designers reinterpreted timeless motifs with modern flair. Sculptural silhouettes and dynamic movement added drama, while archival references offered a nod to the past. Here’s our roundup of the high jewellery collections that lit up Paris—and beyond.
Messika:
To celebrate its 20th anniversary, Parisian jeweller Messika ventured into bold new territory. Terres d’Instinct draws inspiration from Namibia’s vast landscapes—the Namib Desert’s shifting sands, and the graceful silhouettes of lions and cheetahs. The result? Graphic designs where twinkling diamonds meet vivid gemstones, exuding a raw, untamed beauty.
Gucci:
At its Paris flagship, Gucci unveiled dreamy new chapters of Labirinti Gucci. Inspired by Italian gardens, highlights include a necklace set with rubellite tourmalines and tsavorites in trellis-like patterns. Meanwhile, the Marina Chain appears in a stunning parure of rubies, sapphires and tsavorites blended in a soft gradient.
Tasaki:
Japanese jeweller Tasaki took a minimalist yet sophisticated turn. Its latest haute joaillerie line revolves around five hero gemstones—emeralds, rubies, sapphires, pearls and white diamonds. From the clean geometry of Rouge Sublime to the gentle pairing of pearls and yellow diamonds in Grâce Éternelle, the collection radiates quiet luxury.
Pomellato:
Pomellato’s Collezione 1967 channels three decades of Milanese design prowess. Sculptural chains and vibrant colour dominate, with standouts like the Cascade necklace—twin diamond-set chains flowing around a Ceylon sapphire like a frozen waterfall. Another showstopper, a tanzanite necklace set with a 55.96ct stone, blurs the line between metal and fabric.
Dior:
Creative director Victoire de Castellane paints a rich narrative across three chapters—winter’s opulence, spring florals and sunlit summer hues. With opals, onyx and diamonds layered in intricate compositions, standout pieces include floral earrings, a golden-hour necklace, and stained-glass effects that play with light and colour.
Graff:
Marking a milestone, Graff’s 1963 collection pays tribute to the Swinging Sixties with hypnotic concentric ovals crafted from over 129 carats of diamonds. The graphic suite is elevated with subtle emerald pavé—an elegant nod to the house’s signature green.
Chanel:
Chanel reimagines Gabrielle Chanel’s iconic motifs—comets, lions and wings—in its latest high jewellery chapter. The Wings of Chanel necklace unfurls diamond wings around a central Padparadscha sapphire, while Dreams Come True combines a 6.06ct diamond with black-coated-gold chains for a striking, contemporary edge.
Louis Vuitton:
Louis Vuitton took its high jewellery to Mallorca, unveiling Virtuosity at the 14th-century Castell de Bellver. Models in custom Nicolas Ghesquière gowns showcased 110 one-of-a-kind pieces, culminating in the Eternal Sun necklace—a 14ct centre yellow diamond surrounded by 27 perfectly matched stones, crowned with an LV Monogram Star-cut diamond.
Buccellati:
In a poetic fusion of high jewellery and heritage craftsmanship, Buccellati debuted a trio of one-of-a-kind clutches inspired by Mario Buccellati’s early fabric designs. Highlights include a green velvet bag with a rubellite clasp and a black velvet version trimmed with diamonds and an Opera pendant.
Dries Criel:
The Belgian newcomer continues to captivate with organic textures and hand-carved details. Jade, yellow diamonds and chrome tourmalines shine in sculptural forms. Highlights include the Double Lotus bracelet, a matching Muzo emerald ring, and a jade cuff that mimics the flow of water.
