How to Style Jewellery for a Festival This Summer: Alternative Festival Jewellery Guide
Festival season is here — and while glitter and bright colours usually may rule the mainstream, we were born to stand out under the sun and the moon.
At Mysticum Luna, we know festival fashion is all about expressing your unique style — bold, dark, and alternative. Whether you’re rocking out at Download, headbanging at Bloodstock, or enjoying any summer music festival, here’s our guide on how to style gothic jewellery that stands out and complements your festival look.
When you’re moving all day (and night), it’s all about statement layering — and your neckline is your altar.
-
Start Bold with a Statement Piece
Begin your layering with a standout necklace that commands attention. Our Anarchy Necklace is perfect for this—its chunky design and carabiner closure add an edgy, rebellious vibe that instantly elevates any outfit. This piece sets the tone and gives your look a powerful focal point, ideal for festival energy where bold style rules. -
Add Depth with a Shorter Necklace
Next, bring contrast and dimension by layering a shorter necklace closer to your neckline. The Lovelace O Ring Choker works beautifully here. Its delicate yet striking design complements the boldness of the Anarchy Necklace without overpowering it. Wearing a choker adds texture and helps balance the layers, creating a sophisticated, multi-dimensional effect. -
Finish with a Long, Flowing Piece
Complete your layered look with a longer necklace that adds movement and draws the eye downwards. The Deity Black Onyx Crystal Necklace is a perfect choice—it’s elegant and mysterious, with the deep black onyx bringing a touch of ritualistic magic. The length elongates your neckline and ties together your layered style with a graceful finish.
Don’t Forget the Hands — Ring Stacks That Tell a Story
Your hands are one of the most expressive parts of your festival look — whether you’re raising a drink, adjusting your sunglasses, or feeling the rhythm of the music. Make your hands stand out with rings that reflect your personal vibe and mood.
-
Start with a Bold Statement Ring
Kick off your stack with a strong, eye-catching piece like our Heavy Metal Signet Ring. Its chunky silhouette and gothic-inspired design make it a powerful focal point that commands attention and channels that rock ’n’ roll festival energy. -
Add Edge with a Unique Accent Ring
Next, layer in something with character and attitude — like our Hel Skull Ring. This ring’s intricate skull detail adds a dark, mystical element, perfect for expressing your alternative spirit while complementing the heaviness of the signet. -
Finish with a Playful, Unexpected Touch
Complete your stack with a statement like the Cowboy Hat Ring for a subtle nod to festival fun and free-spirited style. Its quirky vibe balances the intensity of the other rings and adds personality to your hand styling.
Styling Tip: Mix these bold statement pieces with thinner bands like Plain Chain or silver stacking rings to keep the look dynamic and balanced without overwhelming your fingers.
