The Grammy’s red carpet witnessed a dazzling jewelry statement as Taylor Swift, the renowned “I Can See You” hitmaker, made a striking entrance. Swift, always the center of attention, captivated onlookers by adorning a diamond-accented choker necklace featuring a vintage Concord watch encrusted with white diamonds at its center. The artist deliberately set the watch to midnight, aligning with the theme of her recently released album, Midnights.
The captivating jewelry piece was crafted by none other than the renowned jeweler Lorraine Schwartz, celebrated for adorning celebrities like Pharrell and Beyoncé with her exquisite creations. Swift’s black diamond choker timepiece necklace was complemented by multiple layers of diamonds, expertly designed by Schwartz and amounting to an impressive 300 carats. However, it was the reset Concord timepiece that truly stole the spotlight. This choice aligns with a growing trend among celebrities who opt to wear watches creatively, donning them around their necks or even on their ankles.
Notable instances include Rihanna, who adorned a $400,000 Jacob & Co. timepiece around her ankle at the Las Vegas F1 Grand Prix and sported another watch by the brand as a choker at Pharrell’s Louis Vuitton show in Paris. Emma Chamberlain also embraced the trend, wearing a Cartier Baignoire on a leather strap during Paris Fashion Week. The trend further gained traction when Cartier’s marketing director showcased the statement at the opening of Cartier’s Time Unlimited exhibition in Miami last December.
Undoubtedly anticipating a triumphant evening for her latest album, Swift strategically chose her attire for the occasion. As expected, Midnights secured the award for Best Pop Vocal Album, marking Swift’s 13th Grammy. In a surprise announcement, she revealed a forthcoming album titled “The Tortured Poets Department.” Swift, basking in the glory of her achievements, solidified her status as a dominating force in the music industry. Her continuous presence in the headlines is a testament to her influence, making her the woman of the moment, hour, day, and year. Swift remains at the pinnacle of her career, ensuring that everyone is aware of the extraordinary time she is having.
