Anklets: The Unexpected Jewellery Comeback of 2025

Author's summary: Anklets make a surprising comeback in 2025.

Anklets are clearly set to make a comeback — or rather, they already have. Twenty Compass, a leading brand in the anklet jewellery category, has reported a remarkable 439% growth in anklets over the past six months — with 301,000 units sold and $9.6 million in revenue across just seven anklet styles.

Anklets are among those accessories we wear on our bodies that carry a rich history, one that spans across cultures and time. Their origins can be traced back to ancient Egypt, around 8,000 years ago, where they were worn for adornment by both men and women.
