It’s not every day a single piece of jewellery worn by a TV character warrants its own Instagram account, but such is the power of the hot boy neck chain.
Of course, we’re talking about Normal People‘s Connell, played by Paul Mescal, and the iconic gold necklace, which amassed a following over 157,000 people.
After the pure thirst Connell’s chain insighted amongst fans, it’s hard not to immediately associate the jewellery style with the character.

But, thankfully for us, the hot boy neck chain does not discriminate.
Since Normal People’s debut we’ve seen the subtle statement pop up on some of television’s most lusted-after characters.
In the second season of Emily In Paris our favourite smouldering chef, Gabriel, played by Lucas Bravo, was spotted sporting a gold textured medallion around his neck. And, who are we to question the French when it comes to fashion?

The latest fictional heartthrob to adopt the trend is none other than Euphoria‘s Nate Jacobs.
While Nate is undeniably terrible, he is objectively gorgeous, thanks to the man playing him, our ultimate crush, Jacob Elordi.
In episode four of season two, we see Nate’s dad Cal perform one hell of a monologue as he bids his rotten family adieu. Watching on from the stairs in brooding silence, we can’t help but spot Nate’s gold chain, styled similarly to Gabriel—with a white tee. And with that, the humble neck chain has cemented its hot-boy status.

Just when we thought the hype for the hot boy/men chains were dying down, Adam Brody revived the obsession in Nobody Wants This. Of course, the pendant holds significant religious value to his character, Noah, but for us it’s another reason to admire a bearded Brody.
Because we believe in this pivotal accessory with such passion, we’ve rounded up the best pieces to shop for your significant other to give them that Paul-Mescal-energy.
