The Biggest Jewelry Trends from the 97th Academy Awards

The 97th annual Academy Awards was a jewelry lover’s dream come true. Immaculate diamond chokers, linear drop earrings, and the return of the cocktail ring were the clear trends of the evening, shining bright among a sea of silver dresses and majestic archival-inspired gowns. 

“After years of quiet luxury and modest dressing, Hollywood glamour is back in a big way especially with the jewels” says Ritani COO Ria Papasifakis. 

Below, Ritani breaks down how to transition these jaw-dropping styles into everyday looks. 

Diamond Chokers

Young Hollywood in particular embraced simple diamond chokers. Although those high jewelry pieces may seem out of reach, there are ways to translate this style with affordable designs.

Linear Drop Earrings

​One of the easiest ways to take an everyday look up a notch is with linear drop earrings, which were ubiquitous at the Oscar’s this year. They help frame the face and can be worn as easily to brunch as they can as a wedding guest.

The Return of the Cocktail Ring 

​Statement rings in a bevy of shapes and sizes make us excited to dress up again. It’s less about the stack, and more about a singular, oversized ring – diamond or gemstone or a mixture of both – that was huge on the red carpet and will be huge in 2025.
