As if the 86th Annual Academy Awards red carpet wasn't big enough on wattage, the statement jewelry hanging off the necks, ears and hands of boldfaced stars was also competing for the limelight.
In Best Supporting Actress nominee Jennifer Lawrence's (American Hustle) case, the Neil Lane diamond necklace complementing her Dior Couture gown, reportedly worth $2 million, hung seductively longer in the back than in the front.
Cate Blanchett's outfit sparkled from top to toe: She was radiant in a nude Armani Privé gown featuring Swarovski crystals, opulently paired with pendulous Chopard opal earrings. Her best accessory, however, goes to her Oscar for Best Actress (Blue Jasmine).
Charlize Theron, resplendent in a black Dior Couture number with mermaid hem, rocked a giant Harry Winston diamond piece hanging serenely on her neck.
Lupita Nyong'o, who won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress (12 Years a Slave), accessorized her sweet, ice blue pleated Prada confection with understated earrings and headband by Fred Leighton.
Meanwhile, Tiffany & Co. helped add shine to two actresses: Best Actress nominee Amy Adams (American Hustle), wearing a navy Gucci number, accessorized with the brand's rhodochrosite, lapis and turquoise earrings; while Jessica Biel paired her Chanel gown with drop earrings and a bow bracelet with emerald-cut aquamarines and diamonds.
