Stars and Glitz: Famous Celebrity Jewellery
Madonna

Madonna's look at the 1991 Oscars sporting Harry Winston jewelry valued at $20 million was just amazing. This was a well chosen selection of items highlighting the best work of the renowned jeweler, not only a show-off of riches. The jewelry's total worth made it among the most costly red carpet jewelry moments Oscar has had. Every item was chosen not only for its inherent value but also for how it enhanced the whole impression of her looks. The collection contained several notable diamonds, each cut and set to optimize their brightness beneath the red carpet's strong lighting. Every piece, from the carefully set diamonds to the way each item was made to move gently with the wearer, showed Harry Winston's mastery in handling great stones. Madonna's look helped define her not only as a music icon but also as someone who appreciated the ability of great jewelry to capture special events. Her red carpet look gained more mystery from the security precautions needed to guard such priceless items.
