The sighting: Musical artist PinkPantheress was a first-time nominee (and first-time winner!) at the 2026 Grammys. The star wore a Union Jack flag gown from Vivienne Westwood’s 2012 Red Carpet Capsule collection for the occasion and accessorized it with dazzling diamonds.
The jewels: PinkPantheress is wearing Pandora lab-grown diamond jewelry: a Pandora Infinite Necklace in 14K white gold with 68 carats of diamonds, accompanied by a Pandora Infinite bangle and Pandora Era 14k white gold lab-grown diamond ring.
The star told Cosmopolitan that she rarely wears bold necklaces and added “If it were any other event, it would feel like I was overdressing, but this is perfect.”
The trends: The jewelry trend of the Grammys red carpet was, unfortunately, wearing very little jewelry or only understated jewelry. PinkPantheress and her lab grown diamond were one of the few exceptions.
Lab-grown diamonds have become quite mainstream, but they aren’t generally associated with high end luxury spaces like A list red carpets…and the same goes for the brand, Pandora.
What do we think? When I first saw this necklace, I thought it might be antique – something about the setting feels like a nod to the regal fringe necklaces of the Victorian era. But while antique pieces are very popular on red carpets, this lab-grown Pandora piece is as contemporary as can be.
This is the second time in the last couple of years I saw a cool jewelry look on a red carpet that turned out to be Pandora, so I think the brand is working hard to up their coolness factor and prove they’re more than charms with strategic placements and outside-the-box designs. Pandora also bejeweled singer-songwriter Tyla for the 2026 Grammys.
I admit I do wish PinkPantheress had added diamond stud or drop earrings to her look – or maybe a funky asymmetrical ear cuff situation? – to turn up the volume a little more, but it is a minor note, not a major criticism.
On a night when many attendees chose to forego jewelry altogether, I’m grateful to PinkPantheress for giving us one of the few statement necklaces of the night.
Judgement: 11/10 for a very cool necklace on a night when we badly needed cool jewelry.
