Lady Gaga has a way with natural diamonds. Known for her jaw-dropping fashion, the Grammy winner has equal ingenuity when it comes to head-turning jewels. While she has dazzled in creations from Chopard, Neil Lane, Messika, and Lorraine Schwartz, it’s her enduring relationship with Tiffany & Co. that has produced some of her most iconic jewelry moments.
In 2019, Lady Gaga wore the historic 128.54-carat Tiffany Yellow Diamond to the Academy Awards. Since then, she’s worn a myriad of creations from Tiffany designer Jean Schlumberger, including the diamond Flowers and Leaves necklace, the Potager Leaves necklace, and more. Most recently, Mother Monster wore the House’s Bird on a Rock brooch to the UK premiere of Joker: Folie à Deux.
