It has commenced! One of our favorite jewelry red carpet events of the year – the 71st annual Cannes Film Festival has begun. Let’s cut to the chase and show you all the fabulous sparkling and gem worthy jewels.
CATE BLANCHETT: When we found out that Cate was this year’s president, we could not contain our excitement. Cate is one of our absolute favorites in terms of jewelry style and so it came as no surprise that she would blow us out of the water on opening day. Wearing a black lace Armani Prive gown, she wore a stunning pair of orchid earrings from Chopard’s Red Carpet collection.
ARAYA A. HARGATE: A style staple at the Cannes Film Festival, Araya was red hot on the red carpet. She wore a stunning pair of diamond earrings, a diamond and pearl flower statement ring and a dramatic diamond wrap bracelet from Chopard. If the bracelet seems familiar to you, Rihanna wore it last year to the screening of ‘Okja’.
KRISTEN STEWART: Kristen is also on the Cannes Film Festival jury this year. The Chanel ambassador wore a diamond lion brooch from Chanel’s L’Esprit du Lion collection. Fun fact: Gabrielle Chanel was born August 19, 1883, and as a Leo, the lion motif played an important part in the brand’s jewelry collection. She topped off her look with a Chanel fine jewelry diamond bracelet. 
JULIANNE MOORE: Another lady in red, Julianne Moore looked sensational in a red feather cape and gown from Givenchy Haute Couture. She accented her red carpet look with simple yet stunning geometric style diamond drop earrings from Chopard.
FAN BINGBING: The princess has arrived! The Chinese actress and De Beers ambassador floated on the Cannes carpet in a teal confection of a gown. Her De Beers diamond necklace and matching earrings completed Fan’s princess red carpet moment.

JARED LETO: Jared showed up in head-to-toe Gucci. The roaring double lion pins on the suit lapels were our favorite detail of the singer’s emsemble. We have to say that he’s giving off major Jesus vibes with his look.
NICK JONAS: Nick donned a cross necklace from Dolce & Gabanna’s Alta Moda Collection. We thought he looked very dapper and on point with the Heavenly Bodies Met Gala theme.
ALEXANDER SKARSGARD: Alexander’s stylist Jeanne Yang had a bevy of jewels to pick from for Alexander’s Skarsgard’s Met Gala look. In the end an antique emerald and diamond lapel pin from Cartier won out.
THE MIGOS: The trio of rappers wore iconic print Versace tuxedos in bold bright colors and topped off their looks with a multitude of diamonds from their own personal jewelry collection. 
P. DIDDY: Looking sharp in an all white tuxedo, Diddy donned a diamond cross which he co-designed 18 years ago with Jacob & Co. and wore white gloves accented with a diamond watch, pinkie cocktail ring and gold bracelet.
ZENDAYA: Always a game changer on the red carpet, Zendaya was our modern day Joan of Arc at this year’s Met Gala. She slayed in silver and Tiffany and Co. jewelry.
KATE UPTON: The Sports Illustrated model went gold for her Met Gala jewelry choice with vintage almost Grecian inspired earrings. She stacked on several gem encrusted gold and diamond bracelets that complimented her jeweled hue crown perfectly. All jewels from Stephen Russell.
HAILEE STEINFELD: Who knew this was Hailee’s eighth time at the Met Gala? The songstress wore angelic white and adorned herself in diamond and pearl jewels and eye-catching crown by TASAKI. 
KERRY WASHINGTON: Kerry was another star to go the gold route. We were particularly struck by her gold and diamond hair ornament done by Lorraine Schwartz. With the high neck and long sleeves of her sequin Ralph Lauren gown, it made total fashion sense, style wise, to go with the floral clip instead of a necklace or bracelets. Do you agree?
UMA THURMAN: When the jewels make the outfit or in Uma’s case when the necklace makes the dress. Diamonds, sapphires and emeralds adorn this multi-cross necklace and matching earrings from Giampiero Bodino. 
LYNDA CARTER: This woman is gorgeous! The Wonder Woman star wore an equally gorgeous and stunning array of vintage jewels from Eleuteri and Bulgari and paired them with Alex
AMANDA SEYFRIED: Another star to embrace celestial jewels, Amanda wore our favorite pair of earrings by H. Stern and a stunning gold and diamond star crown and matching star rings.
KATHERINE LANGFORD: Katherine had one of the best and most interesting mixes of jewels at last night’s Met Gala. Her bracelet stacks were phenomenal. Victorian garnet and gold bangles on one hand and an amazing blue enamel and diamond hinge bracelet with monogram locket on the other. Bold gold door knocker earrings completed her look. All of Katherine’ s stunning jewels were from Fred Leighton.
SOLANGE: The singer went avante-garde with her Met look on last night’s red carpet. She had her Twitter followers choose her PVC Iris Van Herpen look. Staying simple and clean with her jewels, Solange opted for bold silver cuffs and rings from Lorraine Schwartz.
KATIE LEE: The cooking star and former wife of Billy Joel adorned her white suit dress with a gold crown of laurel leaves and a gold and turquoise maltese cross necklace from Fred Leighton Jewels. 
GIGI HADID: A vision in Versace, Gigi wore a stained glass patterned gown and had 50 carats of champagne and intense pink colored diamond earrings on her ears. She stacked Ofira Jewels diamond bands on her fingers
MARY J. BLIGE: You could not miss Mary’s earrings on the Met Gala red carpet last night. The butterfly-esque earrings in various shades of colored diamonds were from L’Dezen. Are you a fan of her jewels? 
ALICIA VIKANDER: Reminding us of a modern day nun habit, Alicia wore a black and silver sequined ensemble with white cap top from Louis Vuitton. Her Nikos Koulis black enamel and white diamond jewels picked up the two-tone color palette of her gown nicely.
MARY KATE AND ASHLEY OLSEN: The twins!!! How we missed them on the Met Gala red carpet or any red carpet for that matter. The duo wore dramatic body armour jewel like pieces from Stephen Russell.
POPPY DELEVINGNE: A vision in purple, Poppy wore one of our all time favourite jewellers- David Webb on the Met Gala red carpet. The stunning peridot, kunzite tourmaline diamond cross was a standout piece against her embellished dress. She tied up the look with matching earrings and cocktail ring.
ALEXA CHUNG: Our eyes were immediately drawn to the sensational grey pearl and diamond collar from Buccellati. The necklace on Alexa elevated her look to red carpet Met Gala status.
LILY ALDRIDGE: Lily could teach us a thing or two about layering statement necklaces! We are in love with these three dynamite emerald and diamond necklaces from Bulgari. The bright yellow hue of her shirt dress was the perfect backdrop to showcase these stunning jewels.
