Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding wasn’t short on diamonds. They appeared everywhere, from the bride’s own jewels to reportedly diamond-encrusted champagne flutes tucked inside guests’ velvet party favor boxes1.
Then came the arrivals. From Gigi Hadid to Zoë Kravitz, the guest list offered a lesson in modern diamond dressing. Some leaned into statement suites, others relied on a single exceptional piece, but every look brought a fresh perspective on black-tie jewelry and plenty of inspiration for the next wedding invitation.
What did Taylor Swift wear?
Taylor Swift chose Christian Dior Haute Couture by Jonathan Anderson for her wedding day, marking the designer’s first couture bridal look for a world-renowned celebrity. She completed the look with custom Christian Louboutin shoes and Cartier jewelry2. While the finer details of the diamonds remain under wraps, the choice of Cartier feels entirely in keeping with Swift’s existing jewelry wardrobe. She has worn the maison repeatedly over the years, from the Panthère de Cartier necklace she styled for a date night with Kelce to the matching Cartier Love bracelets the couple have both been spotted wearing3.
The wedding guest jewelry worth a closer look
The bride may have kept her diamonds largely out of view, but her guests did anything but. From Gigi Hadid’s intriguing necklace to Jennifer Lopez’s floral diamond suite, the evening became a study in modern fine jewelry.
Gigi Hadid
If there was one piece that invited a closer look, it was Gigi Hadid’s necklace. Worn with her bubblegum-pink Wiederhoeft gown4, the graduated diamond rivière finished in a pear-shaped drop that appeared to carry the faintest pink hue. Could it have been a natural pink diamond? We couldn’t help wondering. If so, it would be one of the rarest gemstones in the world, making an already memorable look even more compelling
Jennifer Lopez
Jennifer Lopez leaned into a diamond suite rather than individual pieces. Her floral necklace and matching earrings, worn with a black velvet Bach Mai gown, nodded to a more traditional approach to evening jewelry. The addition of a black headband gave the look a distinctly old Hollywood finish5.
Dakota Johnson
Dakota Johnson also opted for a little black dress. Her Valentino halter neck gown provided a clean backdrop for a carefully assembled mix of fine jewelry. Rather than choosing a matching suite, she layered blackened gold and diamond hoop earrings by Jessica McCormack with a diamond bracelet by Marlo Laz and an eclectic stack of rings from Sophie Bille Brahe, Jessica McCormack, Verdura and 5•6•8•36. The mix reflected the way many women now wear fine jewelry: collected piece by piece rather than centered around a single house.
Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez paired her embellished champagne Oscar de la Renta gown with Chopard pear-shaped diamond drop earrings7. The champagne tones echoed the Oscar de la Renta gown Taylor Swift wore to Gomez’s wedding to Benny Blanco last year. Coincidence or not, it made for a subtle full-circle fashion moment8.
Zoë Kravitz
Zoë Kravitz paired a restored 1965 Balenciaga couture dress with diamond chandelier earrings. The high neckline gave the earrings room to stand out, while the archival Balenciaga felt entirely at home beside classic diamonds. If there was ever a case for wearing your ‘something old’ beyond the bride, this was it9.
Camila Cabello
Camila Cabello chose a crimson lace gown from Zimmermann’s Spring 2026 ready-to-wear collection, where flowing cape sleeves and a sheer skirt brought plenty of drama. A black velvet choker with a silver cross pendant introduced contrast, while diamond earrings added a refined finishing touch10.
Maren Morris
Maren Morris chose sculptural diamond drop earrings and stacked bangles to complement her cutout black gown. The clean, elongated shapes echoed the modern silhouette of the dress, offering a more contemporary take on black-tie jewelry11.
The new rules of wedding jewelry
If there was one takeaway from Taylor and Travis’s wedding, it’s that black-tie jewelry has never felt more personal. Matching suites sat comfortably alongside layered collections, archival couture was paired with classic diamonds and a single exceptional piece carried just as much impact as a head-to-toe jewelry look. Individuality, not uniformity, was the evening’s defining dress code.
