Diane Lane's Brooch Buzzes at the 2026 Golden Globes
Our Piece of the Week is Lagos’ “Bee” brooch that was seen on the red carpet for the first time on Sunday.

Lagos’ “Bee” brooch checks multiple boxes from the “Pinterest Predicts” trend report for the year, which noted brooches and bug jewelry as rising trends.
The Bee brooch features an 18-karat yellow gold body, mother-of-pearl wings and underbelly, black onyx eyes, a diamond thorax, and a tiger’s eye abdomen.
Actress Diane Lane debuted the piece on her blazer on the red carpet at Sunday’s award show.
Lane also accessorized with the brand’s “Fizz” earrings and ring, both with diamond clusters set in 18-karat yellow gold ($21,500 and $15,000, respectively).
“I was drawn to the eye-catching diamond pieces from Lagos’ ‘Fizz’ collection and paired them alongside a whimsical, high jewelry tiger’s eye bee brooch,” said Lane’s stylist Bailey Moon.
The Bee brooch, which retails for $11,000, is from Lagos’ “SML” high jewelry collection.
The collection, named for Lagos founder and creative director Steven Michael Lagos, was inspired by his travels and love for collecting art.
“The SML high jewelry collection is really a passion project for me. It’s an opportunity to flex my muscles as a master jeweler and have fun creating and curating beautiful, handcrafted pieces of art that show expert technique and skill,” said Lagos.
“Many of the pieces in the collection were designed around best-in-class, one-of-a-kind gemstones that I sourced for their unmatched beauty. They’re totally mesmerizing, and each one is as unique as the person who wears it.”
Additional Lagos jewels inspired by insects, such as its “Rare Wonders” beetle pins, can be seen in Senior Editor Lenore Fedow’s story, “Why Creepy, Crawly Bugs Inspire Beautiful Jewelry.”
