Typically the jewellery you see on the red carpet is so eye-wateringly expensive that Hollywood celebrities borrow them for a strict number of hours, and it comes with security to stand on guard. Last night Emma Watson attended her first red carpet event in two years, for the Earthshot Prize ceremony in London, and she wore jewellery from Missoma that we can actually buy. Emma has long been a champion of sustainable fashion, and so it’s not a surprise given the event, that her red carpet look had a very considered message.
She turned to London designer Harris Reed, who only graduated from Central Saint Martins last year and is one of the most talked-about names in fashion thanks to his magical gender-fluid designs. She wore a dress from his spring summer 2022 collection in which he upcycled secondhand wedding dresses and groomswear from Oxfam, creating striking looks which blend gowns together with tuxedos. Emma’s reimagined wedding dress was modernised with an asymmetric silhouette, an open back with romantic, intricate lace straps falling over the shoulders and worn over a pair of black flare trousers.
As for the jewellery, she layered earrings, bracelets and rings from Harris Reed’s collection with Missoma. It’s just as opulent as any of his designs, with pearls, stars and moons and cocktail rings that all have an antique charm, and manage to be both gothic and romantic. Emma wore two pairs of the pearl and crescent earrings, layered bracelets and seven of the cocktail rings, looking like she had raided a Victorian jewellery box.
