This year’s amfAR Gala presented a bevy of looks and their accompanying jewels for us to drool over. One particular bauble stood out from the sea of sparkles at the Cannes Film Festival event: Jessica Chastain’s backward necklace.
The actress wore a long, black Prada gown that featured a low back style. The dress itself was lovely, but the true star of this look was obviously her Piaget necklace. With a sophisticated mix of pearls, diamonds, gold and ruby, the statement piece was surely one of the most glamorous baubles at the event.
Jessica wasted no time making sure the photographers got pictures of her jewelry in all the right angles. The long necklace was definitely the perfect addition to her backless dress.

The reverse necklace featured a pearl tassel accentuated with a large ruby stone.
With a sophisticated updo, the necklace also showed off the actress’ sexy neck and back.
