EVENTS
Not all trends are created equal, and not all customers respond to them the same way! In this session, I will unpack the evolving landscape of consumer preferences, from materials and silhouettes to services and storytelling. This isn’t about predicting the next “it” stone—it’s about helping retailers, gemologists, and business owners interpret trends through the lens of intentional branding, assortment planning, and customer resonance. Drawing on two decades of experience and work with retailers and manufacturers across the U.S. and abroad, I will reveal which trends are gaining traction (and why), and how to tailor them to fit your customer, your brand, and your bottom line.
