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
