The Oscars are an exciting time for those who are part of the awards ceremony itself and the millions of people who are interested in seeing the latest trends in fashion as well as jewelry. As with any year, the Oscars is the event to be at and to be seen at as the best and brightest stars go out of their way to make a statement. Although this year’s ceremony will be jammed packed with famous celebrities, it is really more about what they are wearing than what movie they were in this year. The first thing that catches the eye when they walk down the red carpet is their gowns. Some of the most famous of designers have been utilized to create stunning, unique creations to showcase many of the more popular stars. We should see some nice spring looks as well as traditional reds and blacks on some of the top stars from Jennifer Anniston to Nicole Kidman. Accessorizing is also something that fashion hounds wait for when viewing the red carpet. Just solely having an amazing dress is simply not enough these days as diamonds and other gems are the crème de la crème.
Throughout the years some of the most elegant ensembles have graced the covers of magazines on the event night. From simple diamond necklaces to amazingly designed cuffs with various gems, the styles have changed, but the overall vibe is one of elegance and grandeur. The general public often clamors for designs that they see at the Oscars, so it is important for the more prominent jewelers to create something for the stars that truly jumps off the screen right into the minds of the people. They can then go out and get the creation or something very similar, either way, the jeweler will get the credit and praise for doing something that has become popular in the jewelry world, whether the replicates are made from real diamonds or faux gems that simply give the impression of something much more expensive. The look is what people are after, but they often are unable to spend tens of thousands of dollars to get what they saw on the television.
This year’s Oscars will no doubt be full of excitement and some of the best gowns ever made, but unlike previous years, we should see jewelry designers really stepping out of the box to make an impression with more flash and pizazz than ever before. There is a lot of money to be made with the showcase of designs that are practical, but it’s really the flash and the eye candy that people get crazy for at these events. Either way, some designs will go over very well while others may fall to wayside, but the fact remains that this event is the go to event to find out what will be popular on both the fashion and jewelry fronts in the next year, so keep your eyes peeled for new, stunning designs that will surely turn some heads on and off the red carpet.
