Second in the Awards Night line up is the Critics Choice Awards... this is an interesting event as the level of dress seems to vary from an evening frock to all glammed up. The jewellery varied as a consequence as well - once again, earrings were the favourite, followed by bracelets/rings and finally necklaces. However it was nice to see a variety of gemstones and even pearls being worn, rather than just diamonds.
Smaller jewellery houses and independent designers were represented on the red carpet with most of the big houses taking the night off. The exception was Bvlgari and Laura Harrier wore a beautiful line of diamonds around her neck.
Some red carpet favourites also made an appearance - Lorraine Schwartz (who is known for her bold gemstone jewels), Fred Leighton and Neil Lane.
Some of the independent designers/small jewellery houses that had pieces on the red carpet included Anita Ko, Messika, David Webb, Irene Neuwirth, Gismondi, Ricardo Basta, Silvia Furmanovich, Emmanual Tarpin, Kallati, Anna Khouri and Nikos Koulis. The overwhelming majority of these pieces were earrings.
My favourite piece of the night was a pair of earrings worn by Poppy Delevinge by Kallati (top of page). I haven't been able to find information on them, however they appear to be blue topaz and diamonds.
Allison Janney was the most bedecked with multiple diamond pieces from Neil Lane with necklace, bracelets and rings.
Other pieces by Neil Lane were worn by Anna Paquin
and Chrishell Stause
Fred Leighton provided yellow gold and diamonds for Emmy Rossum,
while Lorraine Schwartz provided diamonds for Constance Wu
and Emily Blunt
David Webb is becoming more popular on the red carpet, worn most notably at this event by Amy Adams with large jade, sapphire, diamond, gold and platinum earrings,
and Kristen Bell.
I have been following Irene Neuwirth for years as I love her eclectic mixing of gemstones and a number of actresses were wearing her jewels at this event including recent Golden Globe winner, Sandra Oh wearing hearts of chrysoprase,
while Connie Britton wore multi gemstone sparkler earrings,
Regina King wore a selection of mixed single earrings,
and Judy Greer wore a pair of fire opal earrings, with her very colourful dress.
Messika had some jewels on the red carpet at the Golden Globes, and on this red carpet graced the neck of Julia Roberts with a diamond choker,
and covered the wrists, fingers and ears of Charlize Theron.
Other designer jewels seen included Gemma Chan in linear rubies by Anita Co;
Angela Bassett in diamond chandeliers by Gismondi;
Jameela Jamil in labradorite by Ricardo Basta ;
Jodie Comer in carved rock crystal quartz, brown and white diamonds and pearls by Silvia Furmanovich ;
Mandy Moore in linear circles of diamonds, rubies and sapphires by Emmanuel Tarpin ;
Marina de Tarira in Kallati ;
Glenn Close in tanzanite and diamonds by Ana Khouri ;
Rachel Brosnahan in emeralds by Nikos Koulis ;
and Debra Messing in diamonds by FD Gallery.
As well as these, Olivia Munn was wearing south sea pearls (good to see pearls get an opportunity to shine on the red carpet!),
and Elizabeth Olsen wore pearls too :)
