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

Precious Metals Bounce Back As Iran Ceasefire Hopes Rise, But Fed Rate Fears Loom: AUGMONT BULLION REPORT
Gold Remains Under Short-term Pressure from Expectations of Fed Tightening and a Strong Dollar. However, Investor Positioning in Gold Looks Relatively Light After Months of ETF Outflows.
Price Movement – Gold has bounced back from its key support levels near $3960, and Silver has recovered from $55, after an Iranian official reportedly received a proposal for a 10-day ceasefire. The continuing US-Iran standoff has kept investors worried about energy-driven inflation and the possibility of further rate hikes. Markets are now pricing in an 83% chance of a US rate hike in December, up sharply from 73% just a week earlier, based on the CME FedWatch tool.
Geopolitical Tensions – Despite the Houthis announcing fresh military action, both Tehran and Washington appear keen to restart talks and stop the escalating attacks that have nearly destroyed a fragile interim agreement reached last month. A senior Iranian official told Reuters on Monday that mediators had proposed a 10-day ceasefire, aimed at rescuing the interim deal and eventually leading to a lasting peace agreement.
Macro-Economic Signals – Gold remains under short-term pressure from expectations of Fed tightening and a strong dollar. However, investor positioning in gold looks relatively light after months of ETF outflows, meaning further price drops may be limited. Strong physical demand, especially from China, along with continued central bank buying, is providing solid support to the gold market.
Technical Triggers
If Gold fails to hold above $4,000 (~Rs.1,41,000), it could slide further to $3,900 (~Rs.1,38,000). But if it manages to stay above $4,200, a fresh rally could take it toward $4,500 (~Rs.1,55,000).
For Silver, a strong move above $63 (~Rs.2,35,000) could push prices toward $70–71 (~Rs.2,51,000–2,55,000). On the other hand, a fall below $55 (~Rs.2,14,000) may drag it down to $50 (~Rs.2,00,000).
