The BAFTA Awards 2026, held in late February, celebrated the finest achievements in British and international cinema. Beyond the excitement of the awards themselves, all eyes were on the stunning looks of the celebrities gracing the red carpet — and this year, it wasn't just the fashion that turned heads, but the breathtaking High Jewelry pieces adorning some of the night's most talked-about guests.
Kate Hudson
The incredibly talented Kate Hudson, best known for her breakout role in Almost Famous, was nominated in the Best Actress category for her performance in Song Sung Blue and was also chosen as one of the presenters at the 2026 BAFTAs. She arrived in a look that was nothing short of show-stopping, wearing the Joséphine Valse Impériale necklace crafted in white gold and set with brilliantly sparkling diamonds, paired with Laurier earrings and a Joséphine Valse Impériale ring featuring a stunning 3-carat diamond centerpiece.
Erin Doherty
British actress Erin Doherty, widely celebrated for her role in The Crown, was another standout presence on the red carpet, also serving as a presenter for the evening. Her look was elegant and striking, accessorized with a Chaumet Twisted necklace in white gold set with two diamonds, and Joséphine Aigrette earrings adorned with two exquisite pear-shaped diamond drops.
Joe Alwyn
British actor Joe Alwyn, acclaimed for his role as Harry Van Buren in the epic drama The Brutalist (2024), made a memorable impression in a crisp white suit. He wore a vintage Chaumet yellow gold leaf brooch dating back to 1971 — a true piece of heritage — alongside a Bee de Chaumet ring in yellow gold, a limited edition piece exclusive to Europe.
Monica Bellucci
World-renowned actress and model Monica Bellucci, celebrated for iconic roles in The Passion of the Christ, Malèna (2000), and The Matrix Reloaded/Revolutions, was one of the most distinguished guests of the evening. She appeared in a classic black gown, elevated by a magnificent Cartier High Jewelry necklace from the En Équilibre collection, lavishly set with diamonds and sapphires. Timeless, glamorous, and utterly radiant — at 61, she proved that true elegance is ageless.
