At the Academy Awards the blackened gold and rough diamond trend continued with many stars wearing pieces that were had a vintage feel. Last year’s most amazing piece was probably the Bulgari collar worn by Keira Knightley. There weren’t, in my opinion, any real showstopper pieces like that on the red carpet Christian Louboutin Alta Ariella Talon Leopard Ankle Boots this time but there were definitely some major jewels being displayed.
The evening belonged to earrings and bracelets. Jennifer Hudson wore a yellow diamond necklace (picture after the jump) and a few others wore diamond necklaces but overall heavy earrings and Yixing Teapots wrists layered with diamonds were the order of the day. Cate Blanchett, Cameron Diaz, Jessica BIel and Jada Pinkett Smith all surrendered their earlobes for the evening to some beautiful and costly gems.
The extraordinary bracelets worn by Nicole Kidman were a pair of 375 carat rough diamond cuffs designed by L’wren Scott. The cuffs contain 187 “arrowhead” shaped diamonds that are known as maccles. The stones are distorted octahedrals that at some point in their growth have “changed direction” creating distinctive triangle shape and are uncut.
After the jump, some of my favorite gems of the evening.
