Diamonds win stage time at MTV’s VMAs
Glamour girl Rihanna donned diamond rings and bracelets from Loree Rodkin on both hands at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards
Hollywood, Calif.—MTV’s Video Music Awards tend to be among the most colorful of the awards shows, and last night’s event didn’t disappoint, with high-energy performances, edgy fashions and diamonds rocking all ends of the stage.
Among the biggest diamond trends were blinged-out bracelets, including layered bangles and bold cuffs, big stud earrings for both the ladies and gentlemen, and dramatic right-hand rings.
Talked-about looks included pop star Rihanna in Loree Rodkin diamonds, Demi Moore in Cartier and Pink in Neil Lane.
Rihanna wore multiple diamond bracelets, including carved-wood styles with white gold and brown diamonds, a white gold and gray-diamond tassel bracelet, and a white gold and bone bracelet with round-diamond balls. She also donned yellow gold and diamond hoop earrings, a multicolored-diamond “fleur de lis” ring in white gold and black rhodium, and an attention-grabbing “shadow cross ring” featuring a rose-cut diamond center and a maltese cross band in yellow gold.
Moore presented the “Best Male Video” award to Chris Brown, and wore a suite of classic pieces, including a Cartier diamond bracelet, earrings and right-hand ring.
Beautiful ring!
