The Cannes Film Festival has become the refuge for the most spectacular
diamond jewels, all the way from high jewellery to vintage pieces. A-
listers from across the world grace the red carpet dressed in the finest
haute couture and luxury jewellery. Cannes is arguably the only film
festival that creates this level of fashion waves world over. This year's
version was no exception. Here are some outstanding diamond moments
from the Cannes Film Festival.
Selena Gomez
After giving Cannes a miss for five consecutive years, global star Selena
Gomez was definitely one of the most anticipated celebrities this year. She
made up for her absence with a ravishing look that was an absolute treat
to the eyes. For the premiere of her movie ‘Emilia Pérez’, she graced the
red carpet in a sophisticated black and white bodycon gown. She glammed
it up with an intricate Bulgari Diamond Swan choker necklace with a large
pear-shaped natural diamond centre stone. It was complemented
perfectly by matching chandelier diamond earrings.
Anya Taylor Joy
Beaming with pride on the red carpet for the premiere of her movie
‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Anya Taylor Joy looked like a million bugs. She
donned a flowy gown from dior, and a sleek old Hollywood style bun. This
minimalistic look was the perfect canvas for the extravagant diamonds she
chose for the occasion. She wore a uniquely structured platinum necklace,
embedded with crystals of 68 carats diamonds. She paired it with white
gold studs and 5 carat diamond rings, all from Tiffany and Co. high
jewellery.
Meryl Streep
Hollywood royalty Meryl Streep showed up at this carpet adjoining the
French Riviera in a monochromatic ensemble. Her attire was elevated to a
whole new level with a pair of stunning diamond earrings from Indian
designer Hanut Singh. These earrings were awe-inspiring, featuring
elongated drop shapes with a gold setting that held large, faceted
diamonds. The pair dangled gracefully, catching the light and drawing
attention to Meryl’s poised look. The inclusion of a statement earring
added oodles of charm to Meryl’s laid back summer look.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan
Timeless beauty, Aishwarya Rai has dominated the Cannes red carpet for
years, serving one iconic look after another. This year, her outfit choice
received a mixed bag of reactions. It was an outrageously eye-catching
blue and silver glittery gown by Falguni and Shane Peacock. However, it
was her jewellery that was the real saviour. She accessorised her ensemble
with sparkling diamond danglers, stacked diamond rings, and a stunning
diamond-encrusted cuff.
