Men’s red carpet brooch trend

Kodi Smit-McPhee, Robert Pattinson, Jamie Dornan and Jonathan Bailey have all rocked mens brooches on the red carpet lately. We take a closer look at the pieces they've worn. Smit-McPhee chose a Cartier brooch, Jamie Dornan a Vrai pin

Jewellery and in particular mens brooches are having a moment on the red carpet. Lewis Hamilton wore a Cartier brooch for his knighthood investiture in December. Meanwhile, mens bracelets, pins and brooches have all been spotted on male stars at both the Baftas and SAG awards.

At the SAG awards Jamie Dornan, star of the film Belfast, took to the red carpet wearing a Vrai lapel pin. The custom Vrai lapel pin featured a pear and half moon, created in sustainably-made lab diamonds set in recycled yellow gold.

But it began with Robert Pattinson at the London premiere of The Batman earlier last month. The former Twilight star wore a thick silver chain bracelet by Chrome Hearts around his wrist with a suit by Luke and Lucie Meier for Jil Sander. It was a cool and modern look.

More recently at the BAFTAs and the Critic’s Choice Awards, there has been plenty more jewellery on show, especially watches.

At the BAFTAs, Kodi Smit-McPhee, of Jane Campion’s The Power of the Dog, wore Cartier’s Panthère de Cartier brooch with white gold, emeralds, onyx, and diamonds. Added to the look was a Tank Must watch, the extra-large model, with automatic movement in steel. Kodi Smit-McPhee paired this with a Juste un Clou ring in 18k white gold and the Juste un Clou ring in 18k white gold and diamonds.
