These Must-Haves Certainly Aren't Your Grandmother's Brooches

After they sauntered down the Fall runways at Altuzarra, Rosie Assoulin, Fenty Puma, Christopher Kane, Gucci, Miu Miu, Lanvin, Saint Laurent, and Balenciaga, one thing became clear: Brooches are most definitely back. While they're typically an overlooked accessory, most closely associated with your grandma's jewelry box, this year, it's time to put aside any prejudices you may have about brooches. Case in point: They're one of the easiest possible ways to transform an outfit, and whether you're a jewelry lover or not, the truth is, your clothes love jewelry. I mean, how could they not?

Better still, brooches offer a way to get a piece from your favorite designer and still be able to pay your rent.
