The Cannes Film Festival has come and gone for another and it was nothing short of a spectacle, particularly when it comes to dazzling jewellery. From Chopard, Tiffany & Co, Messika and more, the red carpet did not miss a single detail on the opulence of high jewellery adorned on celebrities.
But regional jewellery designers shined just as bright at the festival and these Middle East brands stand as a testament to its regional lavishness strutting the red carpet at the Côte d’Azur.
Capturing the eye of discerning tastes, these jewellery brands are an eye to the beholder. From bespoke precious gems to diamond cuts of the highest precision, here are the Middle Eastern jewellery brands that GRAZIA spotted on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet.
Amwaj Jewellery
Content creator, influencer and model Diipa Büller-Khosla wore the Emirati fine jewellery brand, Amwaj, particularly wearing the Mauve Magic necklace. Elevating her custom Gauri & Nainika gown with a rubellite tourmaline with pear diamonds necklace, she also complements it with bespoke diamond drop earrings by Aariya Diamonds.
La Marquise
The actress Kristel Van De Kamp is adorned in a bespoke pair of diamond earrings by La Marquise – a Dubai-based brand that locally crafts high jewellery in the region. While clad in an elegant noir gown by Ari The Brand, Kristel shines with extravagance with the precious gems while also pairing a gorgeous bracelet by Aariya.
Pavit Gujral
This isn’t Sasha’s first rodeo at the esteemed Cannes Film Festival. And her jewellery choice this year proves she’s a veteran.

Dubai Bling’s Farhana Bodi made headlines at the 77th Cannes Film Festival for her array of high-fashion outfits. And throughout her stay at the Côte d’Azur, she was seen wearing Bijouq, Dubai’s very own high-end style jewellery brand. While dressed in a pearly white midi-gown by CHATS, her accented jewellery pieces are completely from the La Duna collection by the esteemed jewellery label.
