In the past, people wore jewelry to protect themselves from evil spirits and to emphasize their status, their special position. Times change, but people still love to adorn themselves. However, nowadays all these rings and necklaces are mostly used as a means of expressing one’s individuality. And celebrities are no exception. They too are not averse to causing a stir with their striking accessories.
Priyanka Chopra
The highlight of Priyanka’s look at the 2018 Met Gala was the hood made of beads and precious stones. The designer of this masterpiece revealed that it took over 250 hours to create.
Salma Hayek
Salma Hayek’s appearance at the 2018 Oscars was particularly striking and memorable. The actress wore a bright dress with sequins and a multi-layered skirt. But the main decoration was a crystal spiderweb that accentuated her shoulders and back.
Chiara Ferragni
Chiara Ferragni is another enthusiast of bold jewelry and outfits, which she constantly showcases at various social events. For instance, at the Schiaparelli fashion show in 2022, she wore earrings resembling ears.
Scarlett Johansson
In 2015, the actress opted for a rather modest dress for the Oscars ceremony. However, she complemented it with either a collar or a necklace adorned with Swarovski crystals, and it was this detail of the outfit that caught everyone’s attention.
Selena Gomez
If you zoom in on Selena Gomez’s accessory, you can notice that it is assembled from numerous images of birds, encrusted with diamonds, sapphires, and morganite. This necklace came to light thanks to the Tiffany brand. Some fans of the singer felt that this accessory was a reference to a tattoo of Justin Bieber, with whom Selena had once been in a relationship.
Gwyneth Paltrow
For the premiere of the series «Brothers Sun,» Gwyneth Paltrow wore a floor-length red skirt paired with a matching top. She adorned her fairly understated outfit with gigantic earrings that captured everyone’s attention.
Katy Perry
Katy Perry sure knows how to surprise. She’s worn all kinds of outfits and adorned herself with various jewelry. But it seems she decided not to stop at the familiar things and once decorated her smile with grills.
Dua Lipa
The young singer loves extravagant outfits, and once again she managed to capture everyone’s attention with her look. At the 2022 Grammy Awards, Dua Lipa appeared wearing a voluminous necklace in the form of chains.
Anna Dello Russo
When it comes to jewelry, Anna doesn’t hold back. At the Schiaparelli shows in 2023 and 2024, she came more than prepared. Adding to her rather understated outfit, she accessorized with massive earrings shaped like keyholes and locks, as well as a substantial necklace resembling, once again, a keyhole.
Kate Blanchett
Kate’s appearance on the red carpet at the 2014 Oscars caused quite a stir. Particularly noteworthy were her Chopard earrings with opals in white gold and diamond frames. This brand had already become something of an unofficial talisman of the awards, as winners often wore its jewelry. Well, the actress was no exception, and she left the event with the statuette for Best Actress in the film «Blue Jasmine.»
Taylor Russell
Taylor’s accessory also garnered unprecedented interest. It seemed as though she courageously wore simply enormous earrings that reached all the way down to her chest. In reality, it was a headband. Yes, such a massive accessory, most likely, no earlobes could bear.
Jennifer Lopez
In 2017, at the Grammy Awards, J.Lo appeared in a stunning lavender dress with an airy bow at the neck. As always, the artist was simply mesmerizing. It wasn’t just about the outfit, but also the carefully chosen rings and bracelet that perfectly matched her shoes and clutch.
Nicole Kidman
In 2008, Nicole Kidman appeared at the Oscars wearing a black dress and a stunning diamond sautoir. At that time, the actress was pregnant and tried to shift public attention from her rounding belly to the dazzling necklace. It seems she succeeded: the necklace, made of 7,645 diamonds totaling nearly 1,400 carats, became the star of the evening.
Indeed, celebrities know exactly what to do to attract attention. For example, wearing extravagant shoes or jewelry. But sometimes, their own clothing fails them, and that’s when their appearance becomes particularly memorable.
