The Best Jewelry at the 2017 BAFTAs

Stars turned up the shine for the royal audience

by Marion Fasel

The EE British Academy Film Awards may not be as high profile an occasion as the Oscars or any award show in Hollywood for that matter, but the stars did turn up the jewelry heat. Perhaps it was in order to shine for the royalty in attendance. Whatever the case may be there was lots of statement jewelry—large earrings in particular—to love .

Kate Middleton only wears big jewels for special occasions otherwise she is rather low-key. When she goes big, she usually dips into the crown collection for a loaner, but these earrings are not ringing any bells with me. She wore them previously in 2011.  Perhaps they are from her family collection. This will be updated when details come to light.
