Virtual appearances notwithstanding, the stars’ red carpet for the 78th Golden Globes was peppered with the most dazzling and beauteous jewels from maisons such as Tiffany & Co., Cartier, and Harry Winston, often set in platinum – that really made the diamonds and gemstones pop. We bring you some of the most exquisite pieces worn by Hollywood’s A-list.

Another star-studded red-carpet event was held virtually this year – the 78th Annual Golden Globe Awards. The world’s most famous celebrities tuned in, from their home, dressed to the nines, and the world’s most famous jewellery maisons were only too happy to lend them some of the most dazzling and jaw-dropping pieces from their collections. The jewellery was shipped out, a flurry of stylists was put to the task, to ensure that each Hollywood A-lister shone resplendently from the comfort of their home. And what made each star’s look truly instagrammable is the fact that unlike television, where closeups are forfeited for the larger picture, each star’s baubles were clearly visible – captured in detailed closeup shots, that really did justice to the effort put in for each look.

Here are some of our favourite looks from the virtual red carpet, where we spotted a lot of platinum jewellery, whose naturally white setting enhances the brilliance of diamonds and coloured gemstones, and really makes them pop – perfectly complementing the stunning array of couture gowns worn by the celebrities.

What makes platinum jewellery so remarkable is that it’s made of 95 percent pure platinum with minimum use of other ingredients – making it the finest metal available today. All over the world, designers prefer precious platinum to create masterpieces because of its versatility, and because it is the most secure setting for any precious gemstone. Platinum is one of the rarest metals, and always stand out.
