Ear inspo: 20 curated ear piercing ideas

Conch, rook, helix, daith, or lobe, intricate ear piercings are having a moment. The multiple earring craze is arguably this year’s biggest trend, and with some of the chicest women we know sporting the look (hi Jennifer Lawrence and Caro Daur) we’re not mad about it.

Less daunting than tattoos, curated ear piercings are a body modification trend for rebellious but ink-wary souls looking to express themselves via some seriously chic jewelry.

The key to the curated ear is different earring formations on each ear. Experiment with earring sizes and spacing. Leave the symmetrical lobe piercings to your 6-year-old self.
