Q: How should a retailer who is looking to introduce jewellery in particular make a start? A: There is going to be some pent up demand for fashion jewellery as people can once again get out. If a retailer was looking to introduce jewellery as a new product group we would always recommend asking what the best sellers are. Pick a good supplier to make sure you have a good spread across bangles, necklaces and earrings and keep bringing in fresh designs. The most successful customers with our Equilibrium Jewellery take the approach of try, test and refine until they find out what really works for them. Equilibrium is designed with this in mind, offering plenty of lines across many styles all available in small quantities. Q: Key trends/colours in jewellery for rest of 2021? A: There is a lot of talk of ‘lockdown fashion’ at the moment and casual comfort seems to be the trend. In jewellery that would be less dressy formal pieces and perhaps designs that reflect a lifestyle and feel good. Our flower themed jewellery and Kiss collections fit this perfectly. In colours polished two-tone gold and silver is simple and trending.
