The brooch as the main accent: two current styling options for autumn 2026

The image showcases two current styling techniques for brooches in the autumn 2026 season. On the left, a large designer safety-pin brooch with grey bead drops, a black heart crystal and chains works as a standalone statement piece on dark fabric. On the right, a cluster of vintage brooches pinned to the lapel of a white shirt demonstrates how the accessory looks modern and avoids any 'old-fashioned' effect.
