Diamonds are always in, creating iconic moments for those who wear them – with celebrities and stylists serving inspiration we can’t help but be enamoured by. One week it’s a showstopping red-carpet ensemble. The next, it’s a celebrity press tour look that gets referenced and remembered just as much as the film they’re promoting.
This year, natural diamonds are making an appearance everywhere from awards ceremonies and premieres to half time shows and all the moments in between. Whether they are worn as a statement or as a touch of subtle elegance, they’re almost always worn with intention; by someone who knows exactly what they’re doing.
The following moments highlight exactly the kind of diamond dressing we can get on board with. The looks that cut through the noise, spark conversation and resonate long after the photos stop circulating.
Golden Globes 2026 diamond jewelry
Few moments crystallized the night quite like Jessie Buckley’s Best Actress win. As she accepted the award, the natural diamonds she wore took on new meaning, forever linked to her career-defining win.
Her look spoke of a certain elegance, with Desert diamonds that caught the light without being overpowering. The styling felt deliberate and grounded, proof that impact doesn’t always come from scale. Sometimes it comes from choosing the right piece and letting it do all the talking.
It was a Golden Globes moment that set the tone early
Margot Robbie’s Wuthering Heights diamond jewelry
For Wuthering Heights, Margot Robbie leaned fully into storytelling, using diamonds to extend the film’s world rather than just dress for the cameras. Along with stylist Andrew Mukamal, Robbie delivered a rare case of red-carpet method dressing that really paid off.
The headline pieces were the bespoke signet rings Robbie commissioned jeweler Cece Fein-Hughes to create ahead of the press tour. One for herself, one as a gift for her co-star Jacob Elordi, who play Catherine and Heathcliff in Emerald Fennell’s adaptation of Emily Brontë’s 1847 novel. The chunky gold rings feature enameled skulls and thorn details and are finished with a dainty border of pavé diamonds.
On the band, things get even more specific: a Brontë quote (“Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same”), the characters’ initials, and “1847–2026,” linking the novel’s publication year to the film’s release1.
That same attention to detail carried through to the film’s Los Angeles premiere, where Robbie switched gears and wore the historic Taj Mahal Diamond. The legendary diamond, inscribed with the words “Love is Everlasting” carries one of the most famous love stories in jewelry history2.
Grammys 2026 diamond jewelry
The Grammys always leave us with plenty to talk about but this year’s most memorable diamond moment came with real emotion attached. When Bad Bunny accepted Album of the Year for Debí Tirar Más Fotos (the first Spanish-language album to win the category), the room shifted.
His reaction spoke volumes. As did the single diamond huggie hoop earring he wore: a small but pointed detail that’s now inseparable from his historic win.
Elsewhere on the red carpet, diamonds went big. Hailey Bieber let her jewelry lead in a black strapless Alaïa gown, wearing a custom Lorraine Schwartz choker that placed a 30-carat pear-shaped natural diamond at its centre, paired with oversized pear-shaped studs and a matching ring. Justin Bieber followed suit in his own unique way, arriving in a 100-carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond necklace over his black Balenciaga suit and wearing it with total ease3.
The unique qualities of Desert diamonds also took center stage thanks to Keltie Knight, who collaborated with designer Danny Godoy on a natural diamond color inspired look, showcasing Desert diamond rings and earrings from the inimitable Renna Jewels.
Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Desert diamond stud
At the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show, Bad Bunny delivered a historic performance that put his Puerto Rican heritage front and center. The field at Levi’s Stadium was transformed into a landscape inspired by the island, from sugarcane fields to domino tables and a piragua (shaved ice) stand
Amid all of that, one detail stood out on closer inspection: a single marquise-cut Desert diamond stud set in yellow gold, shaped unmistakably like a football. Designed by Marvin Douglas, the earring was made specifically for the performance, its shape nodding to the game itself and its warm Desert diamond hue standing out against Bad Bunny’s all-white look.
It was small and easy to miss, but impossible to forget once you caught it. It will forever hold it’s place in diamond history.
Ego Nwodim’s Botswana-sourced natural diamonds at the 2026 Spirit Awards
At the 41st Film Independent Spirit Awards, Ego Nwodim stepped into the host role with the same presence that made her Saturday Night Live alter ego Miss Eggy such a scene stealer.
Nwodim wore Giambattista Valli4, a sculpted bustier and full skirt that delivered high-impact glamour without losing playfulness. Styled by Micaela Erlanger, she paired the look with Botswana-sourced natural diamond jewelry including drop earrings and a three-stone oval-diamond ring from Grandview Klein Diamonds.
The diamonds brought clarity and structure to the volume of the gown without competing, showing that classic stones hold their own under stage lights on a night built around film, celebration and a host who clearly understood the assignment.
