A '''sequin''' ({{IPAc-en|'|s|iː|k|w|ɪ|n}}) is a small, shiny, disk-shaped, shiny beadornament.
 
Sequins are also referred to as '''paillettes''', '''spangles''', or ''diamanté'' (also spelled ''diamante''). Although the words sequins, paillettes, lentejuelas, and spangles can be used interchangeably, ''diamanté'' (literally "set with diamonds") is both an adjective and a plural-only noun, which specifically refers to diamond-shaped sequins and can also be used to mean "artificial diamonds", which serve the same purpose as sequins.
