As a popular [statement piece](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/s-carter-designs) in Indian culture, the item is now making its way into mainstream Western culture as well. Originally circulated around the Gothic subculture scene, the more brazen fashionistas have been sporting the look as an everyday adornment. The Fitz collection ranges from the delicate gold or silver versions that see one thinly woven [chain link](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintage-chain-shop) running from nose to ear, to the more ostentatious versions that run across both sides of the face and hang across the mouth. Each piece is handcrafted by the designer and certainly makes a statement for anyone bold enough to wear one. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 83% | Activity: 84% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Ear-to-nose Chains:** The trend of combining earrings and nose rings into one accessory offers disruptive innovation opportunities in the jewelry industry. - **Cross-cultural Fashion:** The increasing popularity of Eastern-inspired accessories in Western culture creates opportunities for cross-cultural fashion brands to provide unique and diverse products. - **Statement Jewelry:** The rise of bold and attention-grabbing facial accessories opens up disruptive innovation opportunities in the statement jewelry sector. ### Where This Applies - **Jewelry:** The jewelry industry can tap into the trend of ear-to-nose chains by designing innovative and customizable pieces that cater to different fashion styles. - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can explore cross-cultural collaborations to expand their product offerings and appeal to a wider audience with Eastern-inspired accessories. - **Accessories:** The accessories industry can leverage the growing demand for statement jewelry by creating unique and eye-catching designs that allow individuals to express their personal style. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Consciously Cool Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-art-of-adornment.md) - [Hypoallergenic Waterproof Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flaire-co.md) - [Subtle Face Jewel Stickers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eye-bijoux.md) - [Fashion-Forward Audio Earrings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peripherii-priamble.md) - [Gen Z-Targeted Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interlinked.md) - [Western-Inspired Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frye-x-aurate.md) - [Y2K-Inspired Flower Necklaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foufou.md) - [Earring Earbud Concept Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zhang-yunxib.md) - [High-End Organic Statement Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/s-carter-designs.md)
