When most of us look to add some razzle-dazzle to our outfits, we root around our jewelry boxes. Jennifer Lawrence heads to Sotheby’s.
Over the past few weeks, Lawrence has turned to the auction house on three occasions to finish off her already formidable looks. The New York premiere of Die My Love marked the actor’s first foray into the world of auction house bling. Dressed in a custom black sculptural column dress from Jonathan Anderson’s Dior, she accessorized with a statement David Webb “hot dog” necklace, made of links of black enamel, platinum, 18 karat gold, and diamonds.
Shortly thereafter, Lawrence stopped by the 2025 CFDA Fashion Awards to present W editor-in-chief Sara Moonves with the Eugenia Sheppard Media Award. She accessorized her shirt and gathered skirt from The Row with a crystal, diamond, and pearl brooch from René Boivin, designed by 20th-century Parisian jewelry designer Suzanne Belperron, which Lawrence wore vertically. The 1930s brooch is festooned with rows of rose-cut diamonds and tapered tiers of rock crystal, bookended by two pearls.
Last night, she went three for three at the 2025 Governors Awards. Wearing a white draped Dior dress, Lawrence added a pair of sculptural ear clips from JAR, designed by Joel Arthur Rosenthal in 1987—a pair of pear-shaped diamonds surrounded by metallic branches, encrusted with diamonds meant to resemble frost.
All this could be considered a subtle Sotheby’s ad: All three of Lawrence’s recent red carpet jewelry choices will be up for auction next month. Lawrence’s stylist, Ryan Hastings, has turned to the auction house to zhuzh up the actor’s roster of understated, black-and-white looks. It’s a boon for both parties: for Lawrence, borrowing rare jewels is yet another fashion flex, while the auction house gets to build the pieces’ provenance.
Both the brooch and JAR earrings will hit the block on December 8 as part of the forthcoming collection, A Legacy of Elegance: Jewels from an Exceptional Collection. The René Boivin is expected to fetch between $20,000 and $30,000, while Sotheby’s estimates that the earrings will go for $300,000 to $500,000. The David Webb necklace, meanwhile, will be viewable at Sotheby’s in New York before the December 11 Fine Jewelry auction, where its estimated price tag is $25,000 to $35,000.
So you, too, can share a jewelry box with Jennifer Lawrence—if you have several tens of thousands of dollars burning a hole in your pocket, that is.
