Cuff Bracelets: The New Fashion Classic

Sunday, December 27th, 2009

When you think of the term fashion classic, what are the items that come to mind? A crisp white button down shirt, great pair of jeans, a little black dress…a cuff bracelet? Over the past few seasons, we’ve seen cuff bracelets everywhere from the red carpet to the runway to the pages of every major fashion magazine. Now, cuff bracelets have gone mainstream, and it looks like they’re here to stay.

Cuff bracelets are nothing new to the fashion scene. In fact, they’ve been around since the days of Cleopatra, when women wore these accessories high on their arm as a symbol of royalty. Coco Chanel was known for her impeccable taste, and piled on several cuff bracelets at a time. Since then, cuff bracelets have continued to show up on fashion’s greats like Anna Wintour and Kate Moss. With so many variations, cuff bracelets are fun to wear and make you just a little more stylish.

This season, cuff bracelets are taking a cue from Byzantine inspired armbands, and designers are brining forth gladiator and knight inspired bracelets that are anything but demure. These bracelets and their chunky hardware don’t hold back. They look great when worn with sleeveless outfits, but can easily be sported with sleeves of any length. Today, these historical inspired bracelets are a stylish reminder eras of the past, and while they won’t keep us safe in tough times, they’ll help us look better in the process.

So every year as cuff bracelets continue to reinvent themselves, we wonder – what’s next on the fashion agenda? While this year may bring arm wear fit for a warrior, next year it may be something completely different. But what we do know is that cuff bracelets are here to stay. They are fast becoming a fashion staple – and dare we say, a classic.
