This year, Chopard unveiled its first ever entirely unique and glamorous Red Carpet Collection.

At the event, Chopard previewed several of the pieces from the collection, all of which were beautifully designed by the brand’s co-president and artistic director Caroline Scheufele. Jewelled masterpieces This year’s Red Carpet Collection is created around the theme of colours. “In my work as a designer, it is indeed the shimmering tones of precious stones that nurture my imagination,” explains Caroline. “A diamond is my favourite stone and an indispensable ally for women on the red carpet.” For this collection, she has chosen stones such as rubies, emeralds, sapphires, amethysts and tourmalines — without forgetting diamonds. An apple-shaped ring is an original, unexpected and delightful model with a tinge of humour. Comprising of approximately 800 tsavorites and more than 200 brown diamonds totaling 57.2 carats adorn this truly spectacular piece. Striking a more romantic note, a majestic floral-inspired necklace is bound to draw the eye. Set with over 1,100 diamonds, pink sapphires and rubies the piece totals 38.8 carats. Also interpreting the floral theme, a delicate springtime necklace is adorned with tourmaline beads, a bed of white of white gold flowers and highlighted by an 18-carat pearcut green tourmaline. This precious item also features a white gold necklace dotted with tiny bells like miniature light-filled cathedrals and set with pear-cut sapphires, oval amethysts tourmalines and diamonds.
