Rihanna ♡ Chopard
In 2017, Chopard collaborated with Rihanna on a jewellery collection titled 'Rihanna ♡ Chopard'. 'I have always been in love with Chopard's exquisite jewellery, so to actually design a collection with them is something I still cannot believe', Rihanna remarked. The collection pays homage to the vibrancy and colour of the popstar's native Barbados. Rihanna insisted on only using fair-mined gold and every piece from the collection is marked 'R ♡ C'.
The collection was launched at the Cannes Film Festival with a glittering red carpet event on 19 May 2017 at which Rihanna wore this very parure together with a light blue Dior gown. The event furthermore coincided with the 70th anniversary of the festival and marked the 20th anniversary of Chopard being an official partner of the Cannes Film Festival.
