Summer Holiday Shell Trend for 2025 – Style with Pearl Accessories
As we step into the sun-drenched days of Summer 2025, one enduring motif is shimmering its way back into the spotlight: the shell. But this season, it’s not just about seaside nostalgia — it’s about elevated elegance. At Freya Rose London, we’ve always been captivated by the poetic beauty of the shell, particularly the mesmerising iridescence of mother of pearl. This summer, we’re embracing the shell trend through a refined curation of pearl accessories across our collections of shoes, bags and jewellery — each handcrafted to perfection.
The Shell Trend Reimagined
Far from fleeting fashion, the shell is an ancient symbol of femininity, transformation and natural beauty. This year, designers and style tastemakers are leaning into organic textures, sea-inspired shapes and radiant finishes. Our interpretation? Pearl accessories that honour artisanal craftsmanship while offering a contemporary, sculptural elegance. Whether you're jetting off to the Amalfi Coast, attending a coastal wedding, or simply elevating your summer style — shells are your go-to statement.
Mother of Pearl and Pāua Shell Shoes
Jewelled heels inlaid with mother of pearl are at the heart of our brand. These aren't just shoes — they’re wearable works of art. Styles such as Arte and Cleopatra feature handcrafted heels sculpted from mother of pearl, brass, and precious pāua shell, reminiscent of natural coral formations or oceanic treasures. They’re the perfect pearl accessories for destination weddings, evening soirées, or simply strolling through golden-hour streets in style.
SHOP ARTE HERE
Pair them with flowing silhouettes, silk slips, or wide-leg linen trousers to let the heels take centre stage — their iridescent shimmer captures the sun beautifully with every step.

Statement Pearl Jewellery
Our jewellery showcases the refined side of the shell trend. From our hand carved rose earrings to mother of pearl pendants and celestial charms, each pearl accessory is meticulously hand-carved by our artisan partners in Indonesia. With their soft luminescence and ethereal textures, these pieces elevate beachwear by day and occasion wear by night.
