Most Expensive Red Carpet Jewelry of All Time

33. Jennifer Lopez’s Leaf Earrings

Designer: Fred Leighton
Event: 2001 Oscars
Worth: $5,000-$6,000*

When it comes to red carpet looks, actress and singer Jennifer Lopez has some of the most well-known (remember The Dress?). Lopez wore a Chanel gown in 2001. It’s hard to take the attention away from a Chanel gown, particularly one as elegant as the off-the-shoulder, steel-gray number that Lopez wore, but the actress’ jewelry pulled it off.

Lopez wore leaf diamond earrings from Fred Leighton, a designer whose earrings range from $5,000 to $6,000, on average. Fred Leighton has been designing Hollywood jewelry since the 1970s, when he first opened up shop in—you guessed it—New York City.
