Beyond ‘his’ and ‘hers’: the rise of genderless jewellery
We live in a time when gender roles are being shattered. No colour is delegated to a particular gender—blue isn’t meant for boys and pink isn’t locked to girls. The same holds true for jewellery. Whether it’s rings, bracelets, necklaces, or even earrings, gender-neutral accessories are becoming symbols of confidence, style, and courage.
