Jewellery sector’s growth will be fueled by a younger, diverse clientele: McKinsey & Co luxury fashion report

Jewellery sales are expected to regain momentum with 3% to 5% projected growth. An increasing number of consumers will transition from non-branded to branded jewellery.

A 2025 luxury fashion report by McKinsey & Co forecasts jewellery and leather goods to be the fastest-growing categories of the luxury goods industry through 2027. The jewellery sector’s growth will be fuelled by a younger and more diverse clientele.

The report notes that in the period 2019-2023, the jewellery category experienced a remarkable 8% CAGR (compound annual growth rate), globally. However, in 2024, growth slowed down between 2% to 4%. This year, jewellery sales are expected to regain momentum with 3% to 5% projected growth, and accelerate to 4% to 6% by 2027.

Jewellery sector’s growth in the next 3 years will be shaped by shifting customer profiles and buying behaviours. An increasing number of consumers will transition from non-branded to branded jewellery.

High jewellery sales are likely to increase in line with the growing number of ultra-high-net-worth individuals worldwide. Moreover, growing interest among younger buyers in genderless jewellery, along with luxury brands investing in technology and immersive experiences will further shape interest among digital natives and new consumers

However, the report cautions that an uncertainty in a clear segregation between lab-grown diamond and natural diamond markets could pose a challenge to this growth.

Key points:

  • Jewellery to grow globally between 4%-6% through 2027: McKinsey & Co.
  • High-jewellery demand to rise as the wealthy population grows worldwide.
  • Global iconic jewellery brands continue to lead growth for luxury conglomerates
  • Diamond-studded jewellery to see the biggest growth in India in 2025: Redseer
  • India’s precious jewellery market to grow at a healthy 11-13% CAGR until 2028
  • Organised jewellery sector in India to grow 20% year-on-year in FY25: Ind-Ra

DDE, LDB Sign MoU

Published

on

Dubai Diamond Exchange (DDE) and the London Diamond Bourse (LDB) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed at strengthening cooperation between the two diamond trading centres, expanding business opportunities for members, and promoting responsible growth across the global diamond and gemstone trade. The agreement was announced on 8 July 2026.

The MoU establishes a framework for collaboration in responsible trading, commercial development, knowledge sharing, and closer engagement between members of the two bourses. It also seeks to encourage dialogue on issues affecting the international diamond industry as trading centres adapt to an increasingly interconnected global marketplace.

The agreement was signed by Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Chairman of the Dubai Diamond Exchange, and Charlotte Rose, President of the London Diamond Bourse. It marks the first formal international partnership under Rose’s presidency, which began in June.

Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Chairman, Dubai Diamond Exchange, said:

“The Dubai Diamond Exchange was built on the belief that connecting markets creates opportunity. This partnership with the London Diamond Bourse reflects that philosophy, bringing together two major diamond trading centres to strengthen collaboration and expand opportunities for our respective members. The future of our industry will not be built by individual markets acting alone. By working more closely together, we can establish a stronger network of trusted trading centres, sharing expertise, upholding recognised standards, and reinforcing confidence and growth across the global diamond trade.”

Charlotte Rose, President, London Diamond Bourse, noted:

“There is no better partner for the London Diamond Bourse to begin this new chapter with than the Dubai Diamond Exchange. As a fellow member of the World Federation of Diamond Bourses, the DDE shares our commitment to trusted, well-governed trading, and this agreement opens up real opportunities for members on both sides. I’m looking forward to seeing where this partnership takes us.”
