The Most Powerful Golden Globes Jewels
Exquisite emeralds and beautiful diamonds shone against the sea of black dresses donned to make a statement.
Saoirse Ronan, winner of Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy Motion Picture for her role in “Lady Bird,” wore Cartier high jewelry earrings.
Los Angeles--Oh what a difference a year makes.
The 75th Golden Globe Awards held Sunday night marked the first major gathering of the Hollywood elite since numerous allegations of sexual harassment and abuse by powerful men in the entertainment industry became public.
It was also the first awards show since the formation of Time’s Up, an initiative backed by more than 300 women in film, television and theater to fight gender inequality and harassment in the workplace, in part through a legal defense fund.
Several actresses at the awards show brought activists as their plus-ones--Michelle Williams, for example, had Taranka Burke, founder of the Me Too movement, as her date.
All this is to say, the latest Golden Globes were not business as usual.
Awards show attendees wore black as a show of support for the victims of sexual assault in Hollywood, but rather than being austere or demure, the fashion statement was one of empowerment and unity—celebrities weren’t trying to blend in so much as display their solidarity.
The dress code was still ultra-glamorous, with stylists using the monochrome canvas as an excuse to pay extra attention to their clients’ jewelry, adorning them in impressive diamonds and emeralds.
Here are the most interesting looks from the night.

Sarah Jessica Parker, who presented at the Globes, wore a smattering of Art Deco platinum and diamond rings and diamond earrings from Fred Leighton, but her Time’s Up pin, which she sported on a bejeweled belt (pictured above with rings), was her most notable accessory.

Kravitz’s biggest competition for best jewels was director and actress Greta Gerwig, who wore a Tiffany & Co. archival gold necklace, plus an earrings and ring. The Gerwig-directed “Lady Bird” won a Globe for Best Musical or Comedy, and the Tiffany statement collar lived up to its moment in the spotlight as Gerwig gave her acceptance speech for the award.

Viola Davis sported one of the standout looks of the evening: an extravagant layering of Harry Winston diamond necklaces. The haphazard tangle of diamonds was ultra-glamorous yet unfussy in its styling. Davis also wore earrings and a ring from the brand.

What better way to fully represent the women’s empowerment message of the night than by wearing independent female designers? Actress Rachel Brosnahan won her first Golden Globe, for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy TV Series, and did so in ear cuffs by Colette.
