Stunning Jewelry for the Glamorous Red Carpet Event - High-End Jewelry Perfect for Glamorous Event Appearances
British acting legend Dame Helen Mirren (79) stole the spotlight at the Cannes Film Festival with her dazzling jeweled ensemble. At the premiere of "Colors of Time", the venerable actress showcased a remarkable statement necklace and an oversized fascinator, attracting photographers' attention along the red carpet.
Mirren's exquisite appearance included a high-necked black evening dress with puff sleeves, accentuated by a floor-length turquoise sash. She completed the look with a classic pearl earring and a black, flower-shaped fascinator on her head, but the undeniable standout piece was an exclusive necklace named "Marina Collier".
Crafted by esteemed jeweler Margot McKinney, the "Marina Collier" showcased the art of jewelry making to its fullest. The focal point of the piece was a pair of large green beryls (241 and 109 karats) surrounded by an array of aquamarine, tourmaline, sapphire, diamonds, paraiba, and tsavorite - all set in 18-karat gold. The necklace was generously adorned with 29 rare baroque pearls from the Australian South Sea.
The “Marina Collier” was inspired by the beauty of nature, with its design reminiscent of the Great Barrier Reef and the Coral Sea. This striking piece of jewelry, which first debuted at the TEFAF Maastricht art and antiques fair earlier in the year, immediately captured the attention of critics and spectators alike during the Cannes Film Festival.
Helen Mirren demonstrated that a more conservative, tasteful approach can still make waves on the red carpet, proving that the dress code change implemented by festival organizers does not diminish the opportunity to make a memorable impact at the event.
