Jewellery of the 2023 Met Gala
May 2, 2023 • 4 min read
The 2023 Met Gala is done and dusted, but it didn’t leave any disappointments. As one of the most highly regarded nights in the fashion calendar, the annual Met Gala had a long list of famous attendees grace Manhattan’s Metropolitan Museum of Art dressed to their finest.
This year’s theme, ‘Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty’ is in honour of the late fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld, who passed away in 2019. Working with some of the biggest fashion houses in the world, the prolific fashion icon was celebrated in proper style at this year’s event.
In addition to the notable clothing designs, a splendid collection of jewellery was worn to the event. Below we recap some of the most memorable jewellery designs from the gala and share similar designs you can find at Midas Jewellery.
Lizzo
Elegant and classy, Lizzo wore a stunning pearl design to this highly regarded event. Wearing a black silk gown traced with a pearl harness, the ‘About Damn Time’ singer was absolutely jaw-dropping. Her look was enhanced further with a black and gold embroidered cape that pooled on the ground behind her.
Adding to the look, Lizzo had a selection of pearl bracelets and drop earrings to continue the pearl theme. The large range of lustrous pearls made for a beautiful sight that only enhanced the magic of the singer’s ensemble.
If you have an event coming up, you can never go wrong with pearls. Pearl jewellery has an undoubted timeless appeal and adds an extra splash of elegance and prestige. For a noticeable design, our South Sea Pearl Strand is our classic take on a pearl necklace. It features a hint of diamonds among the beautiful strand of white pearls.
Anne Hathaway
Honouring Lagerfeld’s frequent use of pearls and tweed, Anne Hathaway wore a beautiful off-the-shoulder tweed design decorated in gold and pearl embellished safety pins. With a significant presence of hardware already embroidered on the dress, the actress kept it simple, pairing it with fingerless gloves, subtle earrings and a vintage choker.
The most notable accessory from Hathaway’s red carpet appearance was her necklace. The yellow gold and white diamond coin choker was a beautiful addition to her already stunning ensemble, featuring a honeycomb design. Sharing yellow gold metal, it complemented the dress’s accessories perfectly.
Looking for a thick necklace to add flare to your next event? Our Oval Sapphire and Necklace design is the ultimate accessory. A combination of royal blue sapphires with white diamond halos, this necklace is a show-stopping design that will be incredibly flattering.
Halle Bailey
Looking like an absolute princess, Halle Bailey wore a show-stopping number to this year’s Met Gala. The future ‘Little Mermaid’ star wore a breath-taking white lace dress with a bedazzled halter neck design. With a dramatic ruffled coat accompanying the gown, little accessories were needed.
Bailey went for a tasteful addition of dangling diamond earrings to complement the sequins embroidered into the dress and the sparkling neckline. Not only did it stand out among her stylish bob, but it was the perfect choice to break up her lace ensemble.
If you want a similar design to the singer’s, Midas Jewellery has a wide range of earrings available on display. Most similarly, our Diamond Petals and Drops earrings offer an identical appeal, with a dazzling spill of diamonds to break up any look.
Kim Kardashian
Another pearl moment from the night, Kim Kardashian made her presence known in a daring corset design draped in a mix of pearls and diamonds. Going all out with her extravagant ensemble, the influencer didn’t skimp out on her choice of jewellery, going for a maximalist look all-round.
While Kardashian wore a chunky choker of diamonds and pearls, her choice of rings was just as noticeable. Donning an extravagant oval diamond ring, the large stone stood out the most, avoiding getting lost in the draping sleeves of the gown. As equally impressive as the embellishments on the gown and grand in general, the ring could easily rival the majority of diamond engagement rings.
