Brooches 2.0: How to Style This Runway Revival for Everyday Wear

Once tucked away in heirloom boxes, brooches are staging a modern comeback. From Ashlyn’s sculptural blazer cinches to Carolina Herrera’s dramatic floral flourishes, these bold accents are now fashion’s most versatile tools. At Broochella, we’ve always believed the brooch is timeless—and today, the world is catching on.


Why Brooches Are Back

The Fall 2025 runways turned brooches into styling statements:

  • Ashlyn used sculptural silver brooches to cinch tailored blazers, blending sharp structure with fluid movement.

  • Tory Burch transformed knitwear by fastening cardigans with oversized, architectural brooches.

  • Carolina Herrera elevated every look—cobalt gowns, pinstripe coats, and more—with bold floral brooches.

This resurgence confirms: brooches are not decorative afterthoughts—they’re transformative fashion statements.
