Haven’t you heard? Maximalism is the top accessories trend for 2025. Alongside the upsurge in bag charms, layering necklaces and statement sculptural earrings, now the big bangle is back – and in stackable sets of two, three or four, mix-and-match bangles are the easiest way to give your outfit extra impact this season.

As seen on the catwalks at Saint Laurent and Schiaparelli, the 90s trend for chunky beads, resin and enamel has returned. Textural mixes of wood, metal or pearls are the perfect finishing touch to any outfit, whether it’s a matching linen set or summer dress. Adding a bangle stack and a pair of aviator sunglasses will give instant polish.

These high-street sets below are a great foundation for starting a stacking obsession, but have you considered buying secondhand? Our resident fashion editor and vintage fashion fan’s insider tip? Car boot sales! The key is, she says, to root around to find your perfect stacking bangle combo.

‘A car boot sale isn’t really a car boot sale unless there’s a table covered in bangles’

The stacking bangle trend fits neatly into the current boho boom, so wear them alongside your favourite floaty dress or suede sandals to nail the effortless fashion vibe. Or try teaming simple gold or silver bangles with a crisp white shirt and leather trousers to dial up a slick workwear outfit a notch.
