At the 97th Academy Awards, the red carpet glittered with more than just A-list talent. The world’s biggest stars elevated their looks with exquisite craftsmanship—from dazzling necklaces that framed every spotlight-stealing moment to watches that whispered effortless elegance.
Whether its archival treasures or avant-garde designs, these were the pieces that captured the spotlight.
Zoe Saldaña in Cartier
At the Oscars, Best Supporting Actress winner Zoe Saldaña once again captivated us with her exceptional partnership with Cartier. Following her flawless showcase of the maison’s high jewellery all season long, she closed the awards season chapter by unveiling the Panthère Versatiles from the Nature Sauvage Chapter 3 collection. The stunning statement piece is a feat of savoir-faire and modularity. Crafted over 4,827 hours, the transformable piece featured a sleek, speckled onyx-and-diamond panther slinking around her neck, guarding a hypnotic 10.10-carat Zambian emerald. Paired with her sculptural gown, it was a masterclass in power dressing.
“I am honoured to be the first to wear this transformable piece of high jewellery. Its bold creativity and magnetic energy feel like a perfect fit for Oscars night,” said Saldaña. And we couldn’t agree more.
Mikey Madison in Tiffany & Co.
Best Actress winner Mikey Madison channeled vintage Hollywood glamour with a modern twist. The Anora star wore a Tiffany & Co. Archives necklace paired with a pink tourmaline ring in platinum. Completing the ensemble was a suite of diamond earrings and a bracelet that caught the light with every movement. The look? Old Hollywood, but make it 2025.
Margaret Qualley in Chanel
Margaret Qualley stunned in a custom black velvet Chanel gown, but it was her reverse diamond fringe necklace from Chanel’s high jewellery collection that caught our eyes. Draped elegantly down her back, the piece was a perfect blend of boldness and brilliance.
Timothée Chalamet in Cartier
King of the red carpet, Timothée Chalamet, proved once again why he’s fashion’s favourite muse. His ensemble was punctuated by a vintage Cartier Tradition necklace (1988) dripping in white and fancy yellow diamonds, plus a Cartier Collection mini Baignoire watch (1994) encrusted with diamonds, rubies, and sapphires. Add a couple of Cartier Collection rings and a Panthère de Cartier ring, and you have the ultimate lesson in maximalist menswear.
Michelle Yeoh in Boucheron & Richard Mille
Michelle Yeoh’s Oscars presence is always a moment. This year, she stunned in Boucheron’s Plume de Paon asymmetrical diamond earrings and a matching high jewellery tie-necklace, paired effortlessly with a Richard Mille RM 07-01 timepiece. Precision, poetry, and pure elegance.
Selena Gomez in Bvlgari
The singer served Dolce Vita glamour in a rose gold gown, punctuated by a dazzling Bvlgari Serpenti necklace. Because when in doubt, drape yourself in diamonds and let the world watch.
Rowoon in Tiffany & Co.
K-drama royalty Rowoon kept it sharp in a Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany Apollo brooch, a Tiffany T1 ring, and a Tiffany Titan by Pharrell Williams ring. Subtle but impactful.
Miley Cyrus in Boucheron
Miley Cyrus was iced out in Boucheron’s Frosty White earrings from the Like a Queen high jewellery collection. The Vendôme bracelet and Quatre Radiant Edition diamond rings added an extra dose of rockstar opulence.
Andrew Garfield in Jaeger-LeCoultre
Andrew Garfield made a case for refined sophistication, stepping onto the carpet with a Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Duoface Calendar in pink gold. Featuring a manual-winding calibre and a sunray-finished dark grey reverse dial, it was effortless elegance at its best.
Sebastian Stan in Cartier
Sebastian Stan channelled refined masculinity in a Cartier Fauna and Flora brooch and a Santos de Cartier watch, paired with Cartier Love cufflinks. A masterclass in accessorising for men.
Scarlett Johansson in De Beers
Scarlett Johansson embraced Old Hollywood glamour in a navy Thierry Mugler velvet gown, but it was her De Beers Midnight Aura diamond necklace—boasting over 74 carats of diamonds—that turned heads. A true celestial moment.
Raye in Lorraine Schwartz
Singer Raye brought fiery energy to the red carpet in a Vivienne Westwood gown and a bold ruby drop necklace from Lorraine Schwartz. Her look has got us wondering: Is red-on-red the new power move?
