A symbol of Lady Diana’s iconic style, the back necklace is making a comeback. Perfect for enhancing a dress or a backless top, it once again enhances the silhouettes of the red carpet.
It’s making celebrities shine again on the red carpets and is establishing itself as the essential accessory to enhance a bare back. Popularized in 1985 by Lady Diana , the back jewel is back in the spotlight, bringing a touch of refinement and audacity to those who adopt it. At the time, the Princess of Wales made an impression with her pearl necklace tied in the back, matching her burgundy velvet dress by Catherine Walker at the premiere of “Back to the Future”. Today, her iconic look is inspiring a new wave of interpretations, both on the catwalks of Jacquemus , Saint Laurent or Carven as well as on the red carpets, the ideal playground to captivate the eyes.
Back jewelry, the new glamorous asset of celebrities
Headlining this trend, Sabrina Carpenter made a statement at the 2025 Grammy Awards . Stunning in a blue silk mermaid gown adorned with feathers by JW Anderson, she put on an equally striking show from the back, revealing a deep bumster-style neckline, enhanced by a Chopard diamond chain. Following in her footsteps, Anya Taylor-Joy is also making this retro elegance her own. At the Los Angeles premiere of “The Gorge” on February 12, she opted for a white strapless mini dress, adorned with pleated organza wings evoking a bird in flight, a creation by Christian Dior . But it was her back that really caught the eye: a sublime neckline highlighted by a Tiffany & Co. diamond jewel.
While back jewelry is making a majestic presence on red carpets, it is also starting to make its way into more everyday looks. Paired with a backless dress or top, it adds a touch of sophistication, while it boldly energizes a classic blazer or understated coat.
