Stars Choose Chokers, Elongated Earrings at 2026 Grammys
From cool-toned metal to ring stacks, Associate Editor Natalie Francisco highlights the jewelry trends she spotted at the Grammy Awards.

Chokers, torques, elongated earrings, and cool-tone metals took over with men going beyond just a brooch and watch to stack on their rings.
Although, some musicians took a more minimal approach to their jewelry this year while others chose to forgo jewelry altogether.

Cyrus completed her look with a ring stack featuring the “Iconica” ring in 18-karat rose gold and five “Together” rings in 18-karat white and rose gold with diamonds.
PinkPantheress
PinkPantheress, who is known for performing on stage with her purse, traded her handbag for lab-grown diamond accessories by Pandora.
Although, she still skipped an accessory—wearing no earrings on the red carpet—and highlighted her décolletage with a custom “Infinite” necklace featuring a fringe of lab-grown diamonds totaling 68 carats in 14-karat white gold.
She completed the look with the “Era” ring and “Infinite” bangle both with Pandora’s lab-grown diamonds set in 14-karat white gold.

The Biebers also coordinated their “Ice Out” pins, worn to voice opposition to the recent U.S. immigration enforcement policies and the fatal shootings of Alex Peretti and Renee Nicole Good. A number of celebrities wore the pins to the Grammys, including Carole King, Billie Eilish, Kehlani, Rhiannon Giddens, and Brandi Carlile.

Tyla
As a brand ambassador for Pandora, Tyla was dripping in jewels by the brand.
She joined the musicians choosing chokers with the custom “The Together Collier” necklace featuring 116 lab-grown diamonds in 14-karat white gold. Also in her neck stack were the “Era” tennis bracelets used to create two additional chokers.
Decked out from her head to her toes, Tyla also wore the “Era” anklet with bezel-set lab-grown diamonds dangling on a paperclip chain, the “Era” bracelet, and two handfuls of “Era” and “Infinite” rings in 14-karat yellow gold with lab-grown diamonds.
