2025 Emmys Jewelry: Statement Necklaces for the Win

Share

Television stars brought out bold necklaces, dramatic cufflinks, and dazzling diamond chandelier earrings at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday, making the Emmy Awards a must-watch for jewelry lovers.

Whether it was Jean Smart in Rahaminov diamonds, Jenna Ortega in Pomellato, Chloë Sevigny in Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany & Co., or Reba McEntire in Martin Katz, the stars wore their biggest grins and their brand’s best during the annual awards show.

Gotta give a jewelry industry high-five to Ortega of Netflix’s Wednesday for her nearly naked top made entirely of multicolored gems and crystals. Snaps to Givenchy by Sarah Burton for creating this shirt that had the right shapes and sizes to keep Ortega covered and make a splash that got all of the celebrity magazines going.

Other colored gemstones at the Emmys include Parker Posey’s Sabyasachi set. Posey, The White Lotus’ southern belle and ever the queen of offbeat glamour (as The New York Times called it), wore aquamarine, morganite, and coral earrings along with a stunning necklace with a 45 ct. pear-shape emerald drop, as well as a sapphire, pearl, and diamond ring, all from Sabyasachi.

Chloe Sevigny Tiffany Emmy
Chloë Sevigny wore Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany’s Four Leaves ring in 18k gold and platinum with a 4+ ct. green tourmaline.

Sevigny, nominated for the Menendez brothers miniseries Monsters, sported Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany’s Maltese Cross clips, Mini Cooper bracelet, Four Leaves ring, and 18k gold earrings with more than 30 cts. diamonds.

Ah, to be Natasha Rothwell at the Emmys… Not only has she survived two seasons of The White Lotus, she got to wear David Webb 18k gold and platinum treasures, as pictured at top. In addition to her massive necklace, Rothwell wore the Crossover ring, which features carved emerald and sapphire leaves and brilliant-cut diamonds; a ring with cabochon emeralds and rubies and brilliant-cut diamonds; and earrings with pear-shape emerald drops as well as baguette and brilliant-cut diamonds.

Men’s jewelry had a strong night as well, thanks in part to comedian Dewayne Perkins, who wore a Saidian vintage brooch and Lagos jewelry to the show. Snaps to Perkins for accenting his showstopping black-and-white floor-length trench-style jacket and all-white pantsuit with pieces like Lagos’ high jewelry princess pink tourmaline and diamond ring and linear diamond earrings.

A cufflink winner was Shrinking’s Jason Segel, who wore Martin Katz’s groovy mother-of-pearl pieces with black diamond accents in 18k antiqued white gold. The colors stood out among a sea of black tuxedos.

Another standout among the men was the Fred Leighton classic brooch trio worn so elegantly by Abbott Elementary actor William Stanford Davis. His pair of 19th-century old-mine diamond star brooches and antique old-mine diamond star brooch created a constellation of beauty on his textured black tuxedo.

One of JCK’s favorite moments came on the Emmy red carpet, when E! News asked actor Sara Wells about her diamond necklace. Wells, whose husband Noah Wyle would win an Emmy for his role on HBO Max’s The Pitt, proudly announced her jewelry designer was Ashleigh Bergman.

Bergman had hinted on her Instagram stories that she would be dressing someone from head to toe in her brand’s jewelry, and getting that red-carpet shout-out from her muse was icing on the cake, the designer says. Wyle, that young guy from ER, wore a Cartier Tank Américaine watch and Cartier Double C logo cufflinks in sterling silver with sodalite accents.

One additional hurrah to Academy Award winner and Wednesday costar Catherine Zeta-Jones, who accessorized her glamorous look as an Emmys presenter with a suite of high jewelry from Silicon Valley–based Stephen Silver. JCK just loved the actress’ chandelier earrings boasting 17.93 cts. marquise-cut diamonds, which she wore with two rings also by Stephen Silver.

Here are some of these looks, plus others, from the Emmys.

Ortega won the night with her Givenchy ensemble, but her Pomellato jewelry— including the Nudo bracelet with prasiolites (green amethyst)—was a perfect balance to her over-the-top top.

Perkins arguably could win “Best Dressed” in every category for his fit on Sunday night. In addition to Lagos pieces, he wore an exquisite Saidian vintage brooch. He deserves all of the flowers, stat.

Nicole Brydon Bloom sure enjoys Paradise—sorry, Hulu, for the bad pun—but she also looked heavenly in her Fred Leighton cuff, which the brand described as a 1980s diamond and gold twist. Let’s bring back that decade and this bracelet for real. Bloom also wore a pair of Kwiat 4 ct. round brilliant-cut diamond and platinum stud earrings and a Kwiat Moonlight three-row diamond ring in 18k yellow gold.
