No one does whimsically elegant natural diamond jewelry quite like Margaret Qualley. From luminous, starry headpieces and bandeau tiaras to chandelier earrings and diamond fringe back necklaces, the Honey Don’t! actress turns to Chanel for her diamond jewels.

Qualley has been a Chanel ambassador since 2020, going full-throttle with beauty, clothing, and High Jewelry from the legendary maison on red carpets, campaigns, runways, and even her 2023 wedding to music producer Jack Antonoff. 

She’s worn some of her most beloved Chanel pieces, like the Chanel Impression Florale diamond earrings, Chanel High Jewelry Tweed Perlé chandelier earrings, and the star-studded diamond “Etoile Filante” headpiece, on multiple occasions.

When it comes to her jewelry choices, Qualley tends to lean toward the ethereal, with florals, feathers, and celestial elements leading the charge. It’s a sensibility that aligns seamlessly with Chanel, where stars and comets have long been house signatures. After the premiere of her diamond jewelry collection in 1932, Coco Chanel said, “I wanted to cover women with constellations. Stars! Stars of all sizes.” 

The daughter of actress Andie MacDowell and Paul Qualley, she has carved out a career all her own. Since her breakout in Quentin Tarantino’s 2019 Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Qualley has risen to household-name status with acclaimed performances in The Substance and Kinds of Kindness.

Now, she’s starring in Ethan Coen’s new murder-mystery Honey Don’t! as private detective Honey O’Donahue alongside Aubrey Plaza, Chris Evans, and Charlie Day. 

Here, look back on Margaret Qualley’s most impressive natural diamond jewelry moments, courtesy of Chanel.
