Pearls for men have gotten an enormous deal.

Vintage Inspired Watches for Modern Cool Factor Not are they a preppy standard or grandmother’s favorite — fairly, a fresh, modern tackle pearls has taken over the red carpet, been worn by street-style stars and featured in runway shows — and the trend is trickling into the boys’s market and gaining a wider reach.

For a gender-neutral vibe, one can pair an easy pearl strand with edgy pendant necklaces and silver staples. There are edgy options with crosses attached, and Veert, for instance, leads the trend by updating pearls with green stones and other embellishments.

A single pearl earring is one other good jumping-off point, and one which Dior has been making for just a few years. Don’t have a piercing? Joomi Lim makes a pair that layers over the ear.

On the runway, Matthew Williams at Givenchy went big with supersized pearl statement necklaces. And Chanel’s legacy is stuffed with pearl options, perfect so as to add to the genderless conversation with brooches and even pearl belts. Joomi Lim’s rings offer an updated tackle multiple-finger styles with floating pearls.

For more of a maximalist-retro feel, try stacking — mixing sizes, colours and lengths to create an allover pearl look.

Classic tailored looks, powerful outerwear and sleek leather separates are the constructing blocks for this edgy aesthetic.

Cap it off with classic menswear watch style — vintage-inspired leather or steel. With today’s pearls and watches something old is latest, and together they provide each a contemporary and timeless pairing. It’s a match that goes well with this season’s broader fashion message: it’s time to dress up again.
