Cannes, Jewels and Men
It's no longer a secret, jewelry is no longer the exclusive domain of the ladies, and stars are the first to sparkle on the red carpet.
The last fortnight confirmed it once again during the 79th edition of the Cannes Film Festival: the lapels of tuxedos, the neckline of shirts, as well as hands were the canvases for the most beautiful creations. While the brooch has emerged as the star piece, the men's range of jewelry is so much more. Here's a brief overview of the moments — and actors — that caught our eye. /public-objects/b42cbd3c-6ac4-46ff-bf3e-9b4c4b86445e-bd39f323-7e89-40e7-a008-e263803e40ff-1.webp Image sélectionnée /public-objects/3b51cc94-5d4d-45b4-bb44-3f9ade15a42f-5c239fae-8089-4951-8333-7437f2cca0d9-2.webp Image sélectionnée Boucheron has chosen Colman Domingo, a friend of the house, who appeared adorned like a prince with a lavalliere brooch from the Histoire de Style Art Déco collection, paved with diamonds and set with onyx on white gold and black lacquer, accompanied by the Animaux Zèbre ring and two versions of the Quatre ring. François Civil, on the other hand, opted for the Quatre Radiant Edition necklace and ring, all in diamonds on white gold. /public-objects/7fb4f9b7-d655-40ec-aafe-0605359df4d7-4601fa02-cfc0-43b1-8d29-aaff582dccfd-3.webp Image sélectionnée /public-objects/a28704b5-8653-496b-9672-d97273dc76b6-72c44e97-d9ff-4799-ba6e-648e9cfccb14-4.webp Image sélectionnée At Chaumet, two French actors from Pierre Salvadori's opening film, The Electric Kiss , played the brooch card. Laurent Lafitte sported a historic piece from 1983, drawn from the maison 's heritage collections: a gold and diamond bee, delicately placed on his black tuxedo. Pio Marmaï, in a white suit, opted for the Mint Leaves brooch, freshly issued from the High Jewelry collection A Journey Through Nature, adorned with pearls and an emerald-cut aquamarine of over 12 carats. /public-objects/75f0dd66-211b-41c7-83ab-e82c7e4a7371-0c6e24e7-564e-46a1-9c39-fa6d79f0ceb2-5.webp Image sélectionnée /public-objects/b19cfc6b-e861-4ee6-af41-4ad8dd4f682d-0af5684b-5058-47e4-9593-d2c310271b32-6.webp Image sélectionnée For Chanel, it was Thai actor Norawit Titicharoenrak, nicknamed Gemini, who stood out. He wore the Plume brooch in white gold, set with 714 brilliant-cut diamonds (nearly 11 carats in total) from the Plume de Chanel collection, a contemporary reinterpretation of a motif dear to Gabrielle Chanel. On the side of Tiffany & Co., American Miles Teller, who came to support James Gray's Paper Tiger , opted for the Bird on a Rock brooch, an iconic creation conceived by Jean Schlumberger in 1965.
