Pomellato at the 79th Cannes film festival opening red carpet

Actresses Jane Fonda, Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, and Anaïs Demoustier graced the opening red carpet of the 79th Cannes Film Festival wearing Pomellato High Jewellery creations. Jane Fonda’s radiant, iconic presence highlighted the beauty of the Iconica High Jewellery necklace worn for the occasion. The piece—centred on a rare 46.34-carat oval cabochon milky aquamarine set on a white gold chain with diamond pavé—paired seamlessly with Nudo rings. It was a look that balanced the sculptural boldness of gold with the soft luminescence of the gemstone, capturing an effortless and free-spirited elegance.

Global Ambassador Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu attended the red carpet wearing a luminous preview of Pomellato’s new 2026 High Jewelry collection: a semi-rigid choker set with 21 pear-shaped Paraíba tourmalines totaling 20.15 carats, arranged in an irregular raindrop composition and flowing into a fluid dégradé of Paraíba tourmalines and diamonds. Matching long-drop earrings echoed the necklace, while a ring set with nine fancy-cut Paraíba tourmalines completed the look. The vivid blue-green hues of the stones offered a first glimpse of a new Pomellato’s High Jewelry chapter defined by audacious color and refined Milanese craftsmanship.

Actress Anaïs Demoustier, protagonist of the Cannes Film Festival film La Vénus électrique by Pierre Salvadori, wore a High Jewelry necklace highlighting a 12-carat old mine brilliant-cut yellow diamond, paired with Nudo and Catene rings. The look combined sculptural chain links with the iconic Nudo silhouette, creating an effect that felt graphic yet sensual—an expression of Milanese style and contemporary glamour on the Croisette.

At the screening of Charline Bourgeois-Tacquet’s La Vie d’une Femme, Brand Ambassador and actress Hande Erçel wore Pomellato’s Gemme Superlative High Jewellery necklace, a radiant composition of coloured gemstones and brown diamonds. Its distinctive colour palette and exceptional goldsmithing artistry reflect Pomellato’s daring approach to High Jewellery, capturing the Maison’s independent spirit.
