It’s high jewellery a gogo at the Cannes Film Festival this year, as the world’s biggest heritage brands showcase extravagant pieces on the world’s biggest stars. Storied European jewellery houses from Chaumet and Boucheron to Chanel and Cartier all jumped on the opportunity to adorn actors and celebrities in breathtaking designs from their latest high jewellery collections.

The likes of Julianne Moore, Anne Hathaway and Julia Roberts got the chance to complement their outfits with jewellery truly worthy of a haute couture dress. Even relative newcomers like Messika were not to be outdone: the French jewellery house’s glittering pieces were seen on the younger influencers present, such as model Lori Harvey.

Here are the most dazzling pieces from the 75th Cannes Film Festival.

Julianne Moore

The Oscar-winning actress made her red carpet appearance in a plunging black Bottega Veneta gown in a bid to do justice to the enormous Bulgari piece sitting on her collarbone. Called Tribute to Paris, the necklace is from the brand’s Eden The Garden of Wonders high jewellery collection, set to be officially launched this June.

The centrepiece of the necklace is its 35,53-carat cabochon-cut Colombian emerald. Complementing the magnificent gem are dozens of fancy cut white diamonds, as well as hundreds of other intricately set, buff top emeralds. Moore paired the necklace with an equally dazzling emerald and diamond ring, also from Bulgari.

Images of the actress wearing a Panthère de Cartier necklace have already gone viral on Indian social media. One of the esteemed jewellery house’s most famous signature designs, the 18-karat white gold necklace is fashioned in a geometric, openwork design, pave-set with diamonds of nearly 20 carats in total, featuring two majestic panther heads, and encrusted with emeralds and onyx stones.

Anne Hathaway

It’s impossible not to be captivated by the Mediterranean Reverie worn by Hathaway, which reminds us of Titanic’s famous Heart of the Ocean necklace. Also selected from Bulgari’s Eden The Garden of Wonders high jewellery collection, Hathaway was given the enviable task of debuting the piece at Cannes. The necklace features a royal blue, cushion-cut Sri Lankan sapphire of 107 carats suspended from a diamond-encrusted link.
