I love Sezane earrings — of all my Sezane purchases, they’re probably the ones I get compliments on most often.
I personally break Sezane earrings into two categories: vintage glam and boho summer. The vintage glam are most of what you’ll see below: lots of gold (well, gold-plated brass, for the most part) and resins/glass — shiny! Feminine! Beautiful! The latter vibe is omnipresent in their spring/summer collections, when natural materials life raffia, thread and the like dominate. I like them both equally, though I’ve found that the glammier (read: metal-based) pieces tend to last longer.
Let’s say there’s a third category, and that is: Sezane Earrings i Do Not Wish to Buy. These include too-basic shapes (which you can dupe with cheaper brands) and more delicate, demure pieces, which I think are done better by other brands, including Lou Yetu. I’m not paying Sezane earring prices for a pair of basic Sezane earring hoops. I’m getting those at H&M.
If you’re looking for the Sezane earrings worn by Kate Middleton — the Dinas — I’m sorry to say that they’re not currently on offer, and that there’s no perfect equivalent for them at the moment. She wore them on Christmas Day, 2022 – a pretty high-profile occasion for such an egalitarian earring; you love to see it. This was well covered by the myriad Kate Mid style blogs; for a look, see here.
All prices below are in USD — note, as always, that you’ll pay less in absolute terms if you save your earring-buying for when you’re next in Paris. To see exactly how much you’ll save, click here.
