# Elegantly Modern Jewelry Collections Erin Tracy's Empire Collection Boasts Luxurious Pieces By Kalin Ned | Published 2020-02-03 | Luxury Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/empire-collection References: [erintracy](https://www.erintracy.ca/collections/empire?mc_cid=f8e1700368&mc_eid=4de4139ae4) The Empire Collection by Erin Tracy is the Toronto-based designer's latest [fine jewelry venture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintageinspired-fine-jewelry). Released for the 2020 season, the range is intended to "embrace the look and feel of [stately elegance](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stephen-silver) and yet remain current with a modern vibe." The jewelry in the Empire Collection retains an aura of sophistication and luxury. However, the design delivers in accessible ways that render the pieces suitable for a variety of stylings. Some silhouettes exude contemporary connotations like the Chain Link Necklace that is offered in sterling silver. Other pieces like the Empire Ring are a bit more extravagant. Made with [14K White gold and Black Rhodium](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2025-engagement-ring), completed with a Bi-Colored Sapphire and Diamonds, this piece retails for $8,500 CAD. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 90% | Activity: 46% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Ultra Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/ultraluxury) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Elegant Modern Jewelry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop affordable and accessible fine jewelry collections that blend elegance with modern design. - **Contemporary Silhouettes:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create versatile jewelry pieces with contemporary silhouettes to cater to diverse style preferences. - **Luxurious Materials:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Experiment with luxurious materials such as black rhodium, bi-colored sapphire, and diamonds to create high-end jewelry with a modern twist. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fine Jewelry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Rethink traditional fine jewelry by incorporating modern design elements and materials. - **Fashion Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore the intersection of fashion and fine jewelry to create accessories that appeal to a wide range of style preferences. - **Luxury Goods:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Combine elegance and modernity in luxury goods, such as fine jewelry, to attract discerning consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sustainable High-Quality Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/erin-tracy.md) - [Ombre Statement Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/erin-tracy-ombr-stack.md) - [Dynamic Energy-Inspired Luxury Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aura-collections.md) - [Gold Fine Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gold-fine-jewelry.md) - [Travel-Inspired Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dean-davidsons-nomad-collection.md) - [Empowering Jewelry Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/empowering-jewelry.md) - [Pearl-Accented Modern Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wonder-pearl.md) - [Consciously Cool Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-art-of-adornment.md) - [Feminine Graceful Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sarahbijoux.md)
