Compared to the extravagant jewelry usually seen at Cannes, this year’s selection at the film festival was relatively subdued. While there were still some over-the-top and flashy pieces on the red carpet, I prefer to focus on the more elegant and understated looks. These stunning jewels were created by the most renowned names in the industry.
However, the true surprises came from independent designers who had their moment in the spotlight at the event. Let’s find out more about them below.
American actress Lily Gladstone, known for her Native American heritage, starred alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flowermoon.” At the Cannes screening, she wore earrings created by Native American fashion artist Jamie Okuma, which were truly attention-grabbing.
Actor Adrien Brody, who rarely wears brooches, made quite a statement at the event with the stunning brooches designed by Elsa Jin. He showcased her pieces at an event and again at the screening of Wes Anderson’s “Asteroid City.”
Scarlett Johansson, known for her love of jewelry and unique style, wore a pair of Liberty High Jewelry earrings by David Yurman. The earrings, possibly inspired by the Statue of Liberty, perfectly matched Scarlett’s daring fashion choices.
Acclaimed actress Viola Davis, known for her talent and fashion sense, wore Chopard diamond front-facing hoops and a grand flower brooch on her gown for the premiere of “Monster.” Her jewelry choices perfectly complemented her stunning red carpet look.
Actress Kirsten Dunst, attending the screening of “Killers of the Flower Moon,” wore a stunning platinum and diamond Cartier Collection bib necklace from 2004, along with Briony Raymond diamond stud earrings. Her jewelry choices added a touch of elegance to her red carpet ensemble.
Elle Fanning, known for her glamorous appearances at Cannes, wore exquisite jewelry from Cartier at the opening night screening of the French film “Jeanne du Barry.” Her ensemble included a Cartier Tradition Perles de Diamants necklace from 1999, a vintage diamond bracelet from 1930, and an Indomptables de Cartier ring.
Cate Blanchett, the ambassador for Louis Vuitton jewelry designed by Francesca Amfitheatrof, showcased a beautiful diamond earring that gracefully swept up her ear. She accessorized her look for the screening of “Killers of the Flower Moon” with this elegant piece.
Laura Harrier made a statement at Cannes with her impeccable styling and jewelry choices. She wore a black gown by Saint Laurent for the screening of “Monster,” paired with pendant earrings from Bulgari.
Julia Garner, known for her distinctive style, stood out on the red carpet with her platinum blonde hair and fabulous Gucci jewelry. At the screening of “Asteroid City,” she wore High Jewelry pieces with an Art Deco flair, perfectly complementing her 1920s movie star look.
Jennifer Lawrence attended Cannes to support her documentary, “Anatomy of a Fall,” which focuses on Afghan women. For the red carpet, she wore a classic Dior ball gown, paired with a stunning ribbon diamond necklace from the French house. She caused a stir by sporting flip flops from The Row.
During the photocall of “Anatomy of a Fall,” Jennifer Lawrence once again wore Dior, a brand she has been associated with for years. She added a touch of surprise to her dress by pairing it with Cocktail Drop earrings from New York-based designer Alison Lou.
