As a personal stylist and jewelry consultant for Rihanna, I have had the opportunity to style some of her most memorable red carpet appearances. Aside from being a global music superstar, Rihanna is a bold trendsetter who alters the world of luxurious fashion and jewelry with every single appearance. Whether it is the Met Gala or the Oscars, the jewelry she wears is far from mere embellishments; they are powerful statement pieces that tend to set trends in the industry.
1. The Signature Rihanna Jewelry Style
Rihanna’s approach to jewelry design is based on three guiding principles:
Bold & oversized designs: She does not hold back on stacking diamond necklaces, oversized hoop earrings and rings with colorful gemstones.
High-Low Mix: She seamlessly fuses ultra-luxury brands like Chopard, Bulgari and Cartier with independent designers and vintage items.
Personalization & Customization: In some of her breathtaking red carpet looks, she features custom made pieces that are designed specially for her.
2. Rianna’s Distinctive Red Carpet Jewelry In 2025
A. 2025’s The Met Gala: Diamonds Of The Future
At this year’s Met Gala, Rihanna looked spectacular with a sculptural diamond choker that had layered diamond strands falling from it and a gown that had layers of diamonds that made it look like she was covered in them. The piece, said to be a collaboration with Chopard, was made in platinum with pink and yellow diamonds, which are many of the rarest. Her earrings were equally as breathtaking, massive chandelier-style drop earrings with pink diamonds that come from Argyle which is one of the most unique places in the world.
B. 2025’s The Oscars: Emerald Chic
For Rihanna’s appearance in the Academy awards, she chose modernized old Hollywood glam. She donned a magnificent necklace made of Colombian emeralds and diamonds that was set in 18K white gold and was over 10 million dollars. Her emeralds were a dark green color and with her wearing them while she was in a silk dress showed that color gemstones haven’t become old fashioned, yet.
C. 2025’s The Grammy Awards: Ballsy And Avant-Garde
Rihanna outdid herself with her Grammy appearance and with it outdoing herself set a new boundary in the fashion world. She wore a choker made of stacked black diamonds and a dress that had one diamond studded ear cuff. The style was based off of old school grunge fashion from the 90s but was created with haute joaillerie precision.
3. Celebrity Influence On Jewelry: Rihanna’s Love for Bespoke Pieces
The Influence of Celebrities on Jewelry Fashion Rihanna, for example, champions a signature trend of custom-made jewelry. Honed By Dreams takes pride in producing bespoke jewelry that embodies a client’s ideals and aspirations. Bespoke jewelry pieces can be made with sustainable materials and ethically mined stones. These pieces enable a client to have a cherished one-of-a-kind item that reflects their true self. Rihanna’s personalized jewelry collection speaks to her individuality and showcases her belief in bespoke craftsmanship and curated self-expression.
Custom made jewelry has witnessed a surge in popularity due to rising social and environmental awareness. Custom jewelry symbolizes a person’s identity, whether it is a custom gold pendant with her sons initials or diamond pendant in the shape of a zodiac sign. These are some examples of growing personal representation symbols people wish to showcase.
One of the most groundbreaking innovations for the high-value jewelry market is the AI-powered authentication and blockchain embedded. This form of authentication guarantees provenance and security for the piece, making it a crucial aspect to any high-value jewelry collection.
4. Rihanna: Setting the Standard in Jewelry Trends
Compared to other celebrities, Rihanna has certainly set the bar higher when it comes to the jewelry collections she has ascribed to set global trends. The list of the trends which Rihanna has created and sustained awareness about on the market are numerous. Definitely, everything she wears sets a trend.

Also, black diamonds and dark gemstones are becoming more and more popular. With an easy, captivating charm, these new additions to luxury cut jewelry are guaranteed to add and bring blend to the wrist game.
