It wasn't the Gucci suits or the feather boas that truly signaled a shift. It was a simple string of pearls. This is the story of how one accessory, worn by one pop star, became a cultural Trojan horse that dismantled decades of gendered rules in jewelry and redefined what it means to accessorize as a man.

We're here to pull back the curtain on the glossy marketing and examine the inconvenient truths packed inside that convenient little box.
