Bracelet Stacking: How to Wear This Autumn's Bangle Trend
Bracelet stacking is the jewelry trend of this autumn. Wide bangles and open cuffs are back, and they look best next to a fine chain or a tennis bracelet. In this guide you will read how to build a stack in three steps, how to combine gold and silver tones, which three stacks you can copy straight away, and which bracelet to give as a gift, by budget.
Why bracelet stacking is back
After a few years of mostly delicate, minimalist jewelry, fashion is moving back towards volume. Wide bangles and open cuffs appeared this year at houses such as Saint Laurent and Alaïa, and they keep turning up in this autumn's trend reports.
It suits the season too: next to a knitted sweater, a stack of bracelets stands out more than a necklace that disappears under your scarf. And you do not have to buy everything at once. Start with one bracelet and add to it whenever you like.
How to build a bracelet stack in 3 steps
1. Start with a bangle as your base
A bangle is a rigid bracelet without a clasp that gives your stack its shape. The Amira bangle (€ 39.95) is wide and organic in shape and can be the centerpiece. Prefer something finer? The Fem open bangle (€ 35.95) has a cubic zirconia stone at each end. Thanks to the opening, it slips easily onto your wrist.
2. Add a flexible bracelet
Next to the bangle, add something that moves with you, such as a chain or tennis bracelet. It is the contrast between rigid and flexible that makes a stack interesting. The Jasmijn tennis bracelet (€ 34.95), with its row of cubic zirconia stones, catches the light and works with a sweater just as well as with a dress.
3. Finish with one accent
A charm, a heart or a two-tone detail makes the stack your own. The Helia bracelet (€ 27.50) has little suns as charms and is gold-tone and silver-tone at once, so it connects both colors in one stack.

Mixing gold and silver
Wearing gold and silver tones together is no longer a style mistake. It is part of this trend. It looks calmest when one color takes the lead, for example two gold-tone bracelets and one silver-tone. A two-tone bracelet such as Helia bridges the gap. Looking for a silver-tone accent? The Marthe bracelet (€ 21.95) is a fine chain with a small heart. More examples are in our guide to combining gold and silver.
3 stacks to copy
Not in the mood to puzzle it out yourself? These three combinations always work. Click a bracelet to take a closer look, or take the whole stack at once.
Stack 1
Warm gold
Three gold-tone chains in different thicknesses: a glossy snake chain, a double chain and a fine bracelet with beads. Calm enough for the office, pretty enough for dinner.
Whole stack together: € 85.90
Stack 2
Gold with a touch of silver
Two gold-tone bracelets and one silver-tone. The Uppsala charm bracelet comes in gold and in silver tone, so you decide how much silver your stack gets.
Whole stack together: € 81.40
Stack 3
Soft and romantic
Hearts, little beads and a pink rose quartz stone. Lovely to give and just as nice to wear yourself, even next to a watch.
Whole stack together: € 75.90
Styling tips for autumn and winter
- Show your wrist. Choose sleeves that end just above the wrist, or push your sleeve up a little. That keeps the stack visible.
- Chunky knit, fewer bracelets. With a chunky sweater, two or three sturdy bracelets work better than many thin ones.
- Mix shapes, not everything at once. Combine round with flat and glossy with stones. Three different textures are enough.
- Keep the rest simple. With a full wrist, choose a simple necklace and small earrings so the bracelets get the attention.
- Easy with gloves. An open bangle goes on and off through the opening, with no clasp to fiddle with.

Shop Stacked BraceletsFrequently asked questions about stacking bracelets
How many bracelets can you wear at once?
Three to five per wrist is a good guideline. Start with a bangle, add a flexible bracelet and finish with one accent. With wide bracelets, keep it to two or three.
Can you combine gold-tone and silver-tone bracelets?
Yes. Choose one main color and use the other as an accent. A two-tone bracelet connects the two colors.
Can you stack bracelets with a watch?
Yes. Let the watch be the rigid base and add one or two fine bracelets next to it. If you want a full stack, wear it on your other wrist.
What is the difference between a bangle and a bracelet?
A bangle is a rigid, round bracelet without a clasp that you slide over your hand or put on through an opening. A chain or tennis bracelet is flexible and has a clasp.
Can you shower with these bracelets?
Our stainless steel bracelets are waterproof and nickel-free, so showering and washing your hands is no problem. Does it have a natural stone, like Seya? Then take it off for a moment, so the stone stays beautiful for longer.
