The 2026 Oscars proved to be a glamorous event — closing out awards season with some of the most awe-inspiring jewelry we have seen so far —although the entire season offered both inspirational and aspirational looks. A-list actresses seemed to go neck and neck – with chokers, fringy style diamonds and princess-like statement styles. Every time I started to drool over one look, another celebrity turned up on the red carpet in another necklace I fell for, head over heels.
Following are some favorites of the evening:

Rose Byrne wore a standout one-of-a-kind cognac diamond and chocolate enamel choker by Taffin by James De Givenchy with a gorgeous Dior gown.

Chase Infiniti stole the choker spotlight in this De Beers Summer Choker Necklace from De Beers London’s Metamorphosis 2023 Couture Collection. It features a 9.06-carat fancy intense yellow cushion-cut diamond at its center with 57.15 total carats set in 18K yellow and white gold. She wore it with a soft lavender Louis Vuitton gown.

Elle Fanning looked like a princess in her Givenchy gown but the real stunner was her antique CartierBelle Epoque diamond necklace, circa 1903.

Anne Hathaway looked breathtaking in Bulgari’s Neoclassical Starlight High Jewelry necklace in platinum with an 8.02-carat pear-cut fancy vivid yellow diamond, set within a detachable pendant and surrounded by a constellation of pear, round and step-cut diamonds. She wore the spectacular necklace with transformable Daphne’s Laurel earrings set with fancy intense yellow diamonds and white diamonds, inspired by the myth of Apollo and Daphne, with a Valentino gown.

Teyana Taylor shone in a ‘Shooting Star’ diamond necklace from TIFFANY & CO.‘s Blue Book 2024 Celeste collection – the platinum necklace’s center diamond is over 18carats. She wore it with a custom Thom Browne gown.
