After an exciting opening night earlier this week, the 2025 Cannes Film Festival is officially underway, premiering the year’s most anticipated films both in and out of competition. With blockbuster titles like the eight installment for the Mission: Impossible series sharing the stage with picks like Kristen Stewart’s The Chronology of Water and more, the 12 day festival is already capturing attention.
Aside from the films, the buzz of any red carpet always comes down to the fashion that is sure to wow. Though we’re only a few days into the schedule, there’s already been many eye-catching looks – and with it many jewellery pieces that are stealing the show too.
Fresh from the Cannes Film Festival 2025 red carpet(s) so far, here are some of our favourite dazzling pieces.
Alessandra Ambrosio
Alessandra Ambrosio walked the red carpet on Cannes’ opening night in a green dress, while debuting Pomellato’s newest high jewellery collection.
Angela Bassett

Araya A. Hargate
The Thai actress took to the carpet at the Mission: Impossible premiere wearing a slinky Armani Privé dress with a plunging neckline, which left ample room for the sculptural Airelles necklace from Boucheron’s Histoire de Style, Untamed Nature high jewellery collection to make a statement.
Diane Kruger
Diane Kruger’s choice of the FRED Soleil d’Or Sunrise bib necklace for the Variety and Golden Globes Breakthrough Artists party was the right one to complement the cocktail dress she had on.
Emma Todt
Rocking another Boucheron number on the red carpet, model Emma Todt kept the circle motif seen on her Sophie Couture dress going in her choice of necklace. To balance, she wore the open Serpent Bohème ring on her finger and ear studs from the same collection.

Mélanie Laurent
The stunning Mélanie Laurent chose to wear a set from FRED’s Soleil d’Or Sunrise high jewellery collection, featuring a pair of transformable earrings and a ball ring designed to reflects shades of the sun – a perfect choice for the daytime occasion that was the Qui Brille au Combat red carpet.
