BEST OF: Best Jewels from 2018 Met Gala – PART THREE

Our final post on all the glittering jewels spotted at the Met Gala. Be sure to check our posts one and two for the full coverage!

SALMA HAYEK: We weren’t sure about Salma’s red carpet look representing the Heavenly Bodies Met Gala theme until we read that her custom Altuzarra sequin gown depicted the biblical Garden of Eden.  We have to give  Salma creative credit. She topped her dress off with diamond and sapphire earrings and bracelet from Glenn Spiro’s Cascade collection. Salma Hayek Met Gala 2018Salma Hayek Met Gala 2018 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.Zendaya Met Gala 2018 Zendaya Met Gala 2018KATE 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.Kate Upton Met Gala 2018Kate Upton Met Gala 2018Kate Upton Met Gala 2018HAILEE 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. Hailee Steinfeld Met Gala 2018Hailee Steinfeld Met Gala 2018Hailee Steinfeld Met Gala 2018 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?Kerry Washington Met Gall 2018Kerry Washington Met Gall 2018UMA 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.
