Eight of the best men's chains to buy now

First, it was Connell's chain, from the television adaptation of Sally Rooney's Normal People, that caused a social-media stir (and subsequent dedicated Instagram account). Fast forward to 2025, and we're taking inspiration from the screens once again, this time from Nicole Kidman and Harris Dickinson's latest film, Babygirl. But for once, it's not Kidman's jewellery that we're admiring. In fact, it's Dickinson's silver chain necklace, spotlighted in all its glory in a particular scene featuring George Michael's Father Figure, which caught our eye.

Below, find eight of our favourite unisex chains available to shop now, whether you're looking for a sleek Babygirl-inspired necklace or a statement-making piece.
