Necklaces from Movies – The Audrey Hepburn Collection

What is the glamour of Hollywood without amazing jewelry worn by actresses in their roles? Some have been designed by top fashion designers and some are famous for their place in history.

Take the case of the necklace worn by Marylyn Monroe in the movie Gentlemen Prefer Blondes which triggered the legendary phrase “diamonds are a girl’s best friend”. Monroe’s diamond ensemble had the infamous 24.04 carats Moon of Baroda diamond as the centerpiece of the opulent necklace. The yellow diamond had a long and checkered history, having been owned by Empress Maria Theresa of Austria, and Marie Antoinette of France. In its present avatar, the Moon of Baroda is a perfect pear-shaped diamond in a private collection.

No less memorable is the pearl necklace worn by Audrey Hepburn in the unforgettable film Breakfast at Tiffany’s. The pearly white Audrey Hepburn necklace significantly offsets the classic black Givenchy dress she wears in the opening scene where she alights from a taxi on a deserted New York morning street and walks slowly towards the Tiffany store. Her jewelry consists of the 5-strand pearl necklace and a matching diamond hair clip.

Replicas of the jewelry worn by Audrey Hepburn in the movie are available and the pieces are still much sought-after by those wanting to recreate the magic of that era almost six decades back. The premium necklace offered has 5 strands of high-quality man-made pearls and 100% crystal encrusted pendants. These are held together by 2 attachment clips that ensure that the strands stay in place when the wearer is in motion.

Try it – there is nothing to beat an Audrey Hepburn necklace for style and glamour.

Iconic Jewelry from Movies Down the Ages

It is almost impossible to say with any degree of certainty, which movie has seen its glamorous actress wear the best in jewelry. Some say it’s the brooch and emerald earrings Scarlett O’Hara wore in Gone with the Wind while others will opt for the diamond ensemble of Marylyn Monroe in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Julia Roberts $1.35 million necklace in Pretty Woman and Kate Winslet’s blue diamond necklace in The Titanic are other top contenders for the best jewelry in movies rankings.

However, no list can ignore the claims of the pearl strands necklace Audrey Hepburn wore in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. The first scene where she as Holly Golightly stands in front of Tiffany’s early morning wearing the black Givenchy dress, diamond hair clip and 5-strand pearl necklace was what defined Hollywood in the early 1960s and still emulated today.

Top of the pile is Holly Premium 5 Strand pearl and crystal necklace or the one with pearls only. The Holly pearl tassel earrings are another collector’s item.
