The Most Glamorous 2023 Met Gala Jewellery Moments
The clothes aren't the only spectacle of the Met Gala.
The Met Gala 2023 was a grand affair with celebrities and fashionistas from all over the world in attendance. One of the most anticipated aspects of the event is the jewellery worn by the guests.
The jewellery at the Met Gala is always a spectacle, with designers and jewelers creating unique pieces specifically for the event. In 2023, we saw a mix of classic and modern designs, with plenty of bold statement pieces. As the 2023 Met Gala was in honor of Karl Lagerfeld, the iconic designer behind brands such as Chanel and Fendi, his style permeated the event. Lagerfeld, known for his work with pearls and other fine jewellery, would have appreciated some of the classic looks from the evening.
Some designers drew direct inspiration from the theme, while others opted for a more abstract approach. Regardless of the direction they took, we saw some truly stunning pieces that will be the talk of the fashion world for months to come.
From Dua Lipa to Rihanna, L'OFFICIEL takes a look at the best jewellery moments from the 2023 Met Gala.
Dua Lipa
As one of the event chairs, Dua Lipa did not disappoint in her Met Gala 2023 look. The singer wore an egg-shell colored vintage Chanel gown and accentuated her glamour with a Tiffany & Co. diamond necklace. The artisan piece is over 200 carats and is set on platinum.
Jessica Chastain
The actress ditched her bright red hair for a platinum look during this year's Met Gala in honor of Lagerfeld. In addition to her showstopping locks, Jessica Chastain rocked a Gucci High Jewelry necklace with a strapless black Gucci gown.
Priyanka Chopra
As a Bulgari global ambassador, it's no surprise that Priyanka Chopra decided to wear the fine jewelry brand. She stunned in a Bulgari High Jewelry necklace that features the Laguna Blu Diamond.
Lily James
Lily James opted for a De Beers diamond jewellery set. Along with the actress' low-cut, sweetheart neckline Tamara Ralph Couture gown, this platinum and 18K white diamond necklace turned heads.
Rihanna
Rihanna's appearance at the Met Gala was the moment of the night. After patiently waiting for the iconic singer to arrive, she absolutely did not disappoint. While her custom Valentino dress was stunning as well, she went all out for her jewelry look. She wore a Bulgari High Jewelry necklace, which includes five pear diamonds, 118 Akoya cultured pearls, seven pearl diamonds, 109 round diamonds, and 561 extravagantly-shaped diamonds. To say she went all out might actually be an understatement.
Anne Hathaway
Another Bulgari High Jewelry look, Anne Hathaway rocked the brand's Monete necklace and bracelet in yellow gold set with a silver coin. She then paired this with several High Jewelry rings and Divas' Dream earrings.
Michelle Yeoh
Oscar-winning actress Michelle Yeoh accentuated her décolletage with a Cartier High Jewelry diamond necklace and Richard Mille watch.
Lil Nas X
Lil Nas X did jewelry differently. Instead of wearing it the traditional way, he instead covered his body in 218,7874 Swarovski crystals. Showstopping, to say the least.
Kate Moss
Kate Moss wore a Tiffany & Co. Archives necklace in platinum with diamonds from 1997. Her earrings feature Morganites and diamonds, and her bracelet is from Tiffany's Victoria collection.
Elle Fanning
In her gorgeous, bridal-inspired look, Elle Fanning wore a 1955 Cartier necklace that once belonged to Grace Kelly.
Irina Shayk
Supermodel Irina Shayk did what she does best rocking an Ana Khouri custom necklace of curb link chains and multiple pear-shaped diamonds.
Penelope Cruz
As chair of the event, Penelope Cruz wore Chanel High Jewelry earrings. She followed the "no-necklace" trend by keeping her neck clean and accentuating her bridal look.
