Cardi B’s ruby nipple caps, Lady Gaga’s 15-carat Tiffany ring and Gemma Chan’s jewels add sparkle to Met Gala
Celebrity fashions take centre stage at New York’s ‘Camp’-themed fundraising event, but many of the Cartier, Tiffany & Co. and Bulgari pink-carpet creations also turn heads
All eyes were on the fashions at this year’s Met Gala, in New York, on Monday – the annual fundraiser for the Met’s Costume Institute – but some of the jewellery on display proved just as much of a show-stopper.
This year’s theme, “Camp: Notes on Fashion”, gave everyone a free pass to over-accessorise their over-the-top looks with equally over-the-top gems.
Check out the sparkles that caught our eye on the pink carpet.
Striking costumes might be singer-actress Lady Gaga’s forte, but the multitalented performer has been making heads turn with her jewellery choices in several of her recent appearances.
She’s got a taste for Tiffany & Co.’s bold gemstones and dramatic elegance, and has opted to wear diamonds from the house at career-defining moments, such as this year’s Oscars.
She wore diamonds and lots of coloured gemstone rings from Tiffany & Co. to walk the pink carpet at the Met Gala.
The 15-carat Tiffany True diamond ring Lady Gaga wore is said to be worth about HK$9 million (US$1.1 million) and the matching earrings HK$2.7 million.
Her yellow gold and diamond necklace with a butterfly motif is fresh out of the 2019 Tiffany Blue Book Collection.
