18 Jewelry Styles from the Golden Globes
Bold diamond necklaces were a standout jewelry trend at Sunday’s Golden Globe Awards, marking a resurgence after a few years of colorful statement earrings and ornate cocktail rings taking the spotlight.
Golden Globes presenter Olivia Wilde donned Bulgari’s gold sautoir set with Roman Imperial silver coins.
The Jennifers Lawrence and Lopez, Olivia Wilde and Helen Mirren were among the stars taking advantage of a gown that allowed for extravagant neck adornment, whether it boasted a high collar or had a neckline that plunged toward the red carpet.
Per usual, colorless diamond earrings and bracelets were extremely popular, from large stud earrings to eternity bands and bracelets. Pops of color also wove their way into the mix, with some celebrities opting for brightly colored gemstone earrings in green and red hues.
When it came to the gentlemen of the evening, timepieces--namely by Piaget--adorned many a wrist, with a few pairs of cufflinks also making an appearance.
Check out this gallery for 18 jewelry looks from the 2016 Golden Globe Awards.
