Statement Necklaces: Catwalk > High Street



Left to right: Oscar de la Renta; Marni, Lanvin, Christian Lacroix


The spring/summer 09 shows introduced us to 'trophy' jackets, florals and acid brights, but it's the statement necklace that's proved to be the ultimate fashion must-have this season: From the flamboyant florals at Marni to the more eccentric 'ribcage's at Christian Lacroix, from New York to Milan, designers everywhere showed off creative necklines. 
And like this season's colour palette, the mantra is the bolder the better.
