The metals of marvellous maximalists have made their return, meaning it&#8217;s time for minimalists to move over! Like many fashion <a href="//www.gafencushop.com/belt-bags/">trends from the &#8217;80s </a>(ahem, belt-bags) the bigger the garment the better it is. But you needn&#8217;t worry, the fashion world isn&#8217;t making you dig out your old shoulder pads just&nbsp;yet. Instead we&#8217;re rewinding to the powerful statement chains that once had us pumping up the volume.
Chain-link jewellery may have comeback, but it is not without its updates. The high-end accessories still remain striking and bold, but with modern weights. Brands partaking in the re-emerging trend such as <a href="https://www.linksoflondon.com/">Links of London</a>, have chosen gold as the go-to metal for the revival. The contemporary touch to the trend also provides a more gentle look, as many feature precious stones such as diamonds.
Don&#8217;t be dragged down by the chains of past, new ones have emerged and they&#8217;re far more chic.

Maximilist Metals: Chain link jewellery of the ’80s makes its return

While clunky metal armours may have been firmly relinquished as &#8216;a thing of the past&#8217;, fashion-forward folk the world over seem not to have gotten quite over the metallic look in the last couple 100 years! This seemly perennial obsession with all things golden or silver may in fact have extended beyond adorning shiny baubles and trinkets to wearing clothes and other accessories that boast that much-coveted metallic sheen.

Bestowed with an inherent shine, such metallic clothes and accessories are indeed the easiest way to turn heads at a party. As any fashion-forward lady would be well aware, such ensemble – glimmer as they do under the multi-coloured neon nights of the evening – are the perfect arsenal with which to boost one&#8217;s glamour quotient.

Look 1 is assertively for the divas of the night. With over-the-knee Chanel booties paired with a silver Tom Ford jacket and a touch of gold, courtesy of YSL, this metallic look is guaranteed to make you the life of any party.
<figure id="attachment_40131" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-40131" style="width: 700px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="size-full wp-image-40131" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Untitled-design-20.jpg" alt="Metallic Look " width="700" height="466" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Untitled-design-20.jpg 700w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Untitled-design-20-200x133.jpg 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Untitled-design-20-421x280.jpg 421w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Untitled-design-20-120x80.jpg 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Untitled-design-20-500x333.jpg 500w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Untitled-design-20-400x266.jpg 400w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Untitled-design-20-600x399.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-40131" class="wp-caption-text">Metallic Look 2</figcaption></figure>
Look 2 is more about understated elegance. While the golden frills on the Stella McCartney shirt adds just the right dose of bling, the skirt by Shiatzy Chen keep things slightly subtle. Pair with Kate Spade earrings by Kate Spade or a shield bracelet by Loewe to make it interesting.
