Our Oscar Jewellery
Like the rest of the audience at the Oscars, the attention of the Toronto Antiques on King staff will be directed forty percent at the awards and sixty percent the wardrobe of our favorite stars. Specifically, we will be ogling the historically spectacular jewellery. To prepare for this year’s Oscars, we have pulled some of our most Oscar-worthy jewellery and matched it with the appropriate star.
While Meryl Streep makes anything near her look good, blue is particularly striking.This important necklace is not only suitable for Meryl Streep, but also for the Iron Lady herself.
Marilyn Monroe made the the song “Diamond are a Girls Best Friend” famous. We think that Michelle Williams would look fabulous in this diamond bow brooch, and we know Monroe would have liked it!
These Edwardian diamond necklaces were popular when motion picture sound was just beginning to be a major innovation (or obstacle, depending on who you asked) in the movie business. Berenice Bejo would wear the scale and delicacy of one of these necklaces beautifully.
Jessica Chastain looks great in her 1950’s wardrobe for The Help. Why not pursue that look with this retro brooch? The bonus is that retro jewellery is immensely popular once more.
