Cinema, fashion, the international jet set, and red carpet jewelry: Venice constantly sets the standard for high–end luxury. The runway shows at the iconic Venice Film Festival offer a spectacular opportunity to appreciate the trends most sported on the red carpet, with precious masterpieces leading the way.
Red carpet: jewelry and fashion statements
The dreamy gowns worn by the guest stars in the enchanting setting of the Lido could only be complemented by jewelry to match. The red carpet regularly sees a parade of the major high jewelry houses, which offer sophisticatedly retro or boldly contemporary looks complemented by:
Collier: a triumph of interpretations
What necklace style dominates the red carpet? The choker necklace (or collier) is the absolute protagonist of the red carpet, appearing on the décolletage of several stars in both traditional gold variants and bright diamond-encrusted styles.
As multifaceted and striking as the roles on the silver screen, this accessory complements many successful outfits to perfection. Sophisticated white gold chokers, traditional designs with multicolored stones, and bold white gold and diamond chokers routinely take turns under the spotlight, proving that a structured necklace is the ultimate power move for elegant evening wear.
Jewel brooches for elegant dresses: the star detail
Another accessory that is definitely back on the crest of the wave is the decorative brooch. It is capable of attracting so much attention that it centralizes all need for brightness, allowing necklaces, bracelets, and earrings to be left at home.
Among the jewel brooches worn by the stars, particular diamond–studded creations in extra-large versions definitely take the scene, pinned on lapels, deep V-necks, or even securing the drape of a gown.
The rings: diamonds, gold, stones and maxi formats
One piece of red carpet jewelry that should never be underestimated is definitely the one that adorns the manicured hands of the most prominent divas. On the Venetian red carpet, eye-catching models full of personality triumph, such as:
-
Bulgari ring: iconic designs in the shape of reptilian coils (Serpenti).
-
Pomellato ring: sinuous and bold knot designs that express modern luxury.
-
Maxi cocktail rings: featuring oversized gemstones like aquamarine, tanzanite, and topazes.
Bracelets: on the wrist of stars
Among the red carpet jewelry, we also find bracelets, often worn to create an elegant parure effect that echoes the design of the necklace or earrings. The trend that leads the way? The band bracelet or cuff, possibly brightly glowing with pavé diamonds, worn over the sleeve of the dress or on a bare wrist.
Earrings: hoop, spot light or cascade
Vintage-flavored gold earrings, classic diamond spotlights, and, above all, dangling earrings with a decorative spirit that descend toward the shoulders, bringing color and brightness to enhance the cleavage and hairstyle. The comeback not to be missed? That of gold hoop earrings, sported in both minimalist and more opulent, gemstone-encrusted variants.
Red carpet: Venice, jewelry and pre-loved spirit
On the famous red carpet, we see the creations of iconic brands such as Cartier, Bulgari, Gucci, Tiffany, Pomellato, and Buccellati take turns.
In spite of the presentation of new collections, however, many stars choose to complement their outfits by wearing wonderful vintage pieces or items belonging to past archival collections.
This sustainable approach to luxury shows that true beauty never goes out of fashion.
