Best Jewelry at ‘De Son Vivant (Peaceful)’ 2021 Cannes Film Festival Premiere

Bolder-than-ever chandelier earrings and statement chokers were the evening’s brightest stars on day 5 of the 2021 Cannes Film Festival’s De Son Vivant (Peaceful) premiere.

Cannes jewelry recap right here!

MARION COTILLARD: How do you elevate a denim gown into a dynamite red carpet look? Glamorize it with diamonds of course! Chanel’s diamond Sillage High Jewelry earrings and ring, which by the way, has a central cushion cut diamond of 8.15 carats from Chanel’s Collection No. 5, added the necessary glitz and glam to Cotillard’s denim jacket and skirt ensemble.

ANJA RUBIK: We adore Rubik’s diamond and black lacquer ribbon collar from Boucheron’s Deco-inspired High Jewelry collection. It’s a shame that Anja’s makeup choice of a dark lip distracts from that lovely necklace.

KOUKLA LAPIDUS: The model wore  Chopard’s Ginkgo earrings ( to be honest we thought the earrings looked a little like Christmas trees) of emeralds, tsavorites, and yellow sapphires in titanium from its 2020 Red Carpet collection.

DIOR DINNER LATER THAT NIGHT:

BELLA HADID: What better way to debut a brand new pair of yellow and white diamond earrings than to have Bella Hadid wear them! The gorgeous statement earrings are from Chopard’s latest Paradise Red Carpet High Jewelry collection.

Best Jewelry at ‘Tout S’est Bien Passe (Everything Went Fine)’ 2021 Cannes Film Festival Screening

It was all about the diamond on day two of the Cannes Film Festival. From edgy chokers and dramatic earrings to stacks of glittering cocktail rings, the stars came dripping in the beloved stone and proved that there’s no such thing as too much bling!

Don’t forget to catch up on all the jewels spotted on day one right here!

CANDICE SWANEPOEL: Our favorite necklace of day two was spotted around the neck of model Candice Swanepoel. Her Messika Spears diamond choker is comprised of alternating diamonds in pear and marquise cuts, totaling a whopping weight of 70 carats, foregrounded by a 10-carat pear-shaped diamond in its center from their ‘Once Upon a Time’ collection. An edgy Equilibristes ring with 7.27 carats & 18k white gold was just one of the many rings gracing Swanepoel’s fingers!

DIANE KRUGER: The star and Chaumet ambassador wore a delicate pair of  Nuages d’Or earrings of white and yellow gold, set with 2 pear-shaped D VVS1 and D VVS2 diamonds weighing 2.11 and 2.01 carats and featured brilliant-cut and baguette-cut diamonds. But if you ask us what the pièce de résistance was of Kruger’s entire jewelry look, it had to be her Soleil Glorieux ring from the jewelry brand’s Les Ciels de Chaumet high jewelry collection.

ISABELLE HUPPERT: The sparkle coming from Huppert’s amazing diamond earrings from Chopard must have been so bright and blinding that the French actress needed to wear a pair of sunglasses on the red carpet!
