But perhaps the best known image of Monroe is with pearls, which she loved.

Marlene Dietrich jewellery

Once Marilyn Monroe made us believe that diamonds are girl’s best friends. Marlene Dietrich said: “the best stone for blondes – emerald!’, and then bought a luxury jewelry set with huge emeralds – cabochon of the famous jewelry firm Mauboussin. Today in the movie, most of all the costumes and decorations – only an imitation. In the days of the Hollywood of 30’s – they were original works of tailoring and jewelry. Producers, willing the actresses to star in jewelry, did not limit budget for costume designers. They loved to buy luxury jewelry, did not hide it in the safe from prying eyes and did not rent it from the famous jewelry houses, just to appear on the red carpet. Marlene Dietrich was a true collector who wore her own jewels in several of her films.

Jewellery lover Margaret Thatcher

Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher introduced her own rule of wearing, as every day she appeared at work with the new accessory, and it was possible to determine her mood that day by her brooch. “They (brooches) express the state of my soul,” – used to say Margaret. The Iron Lady loved jewelry and was not afraid to wear all at once – bracelets, rings, pearls at the neck, and large earrings. And yet, in nine cases out of ten – she wore a brooch. As she grew older, she added more jewellery, more brooches, more color. London auction Christie is presenting a selection of Margaret Thatcher jewellery at auction on 15 December, 2015.
