2008 Oscar Fashions That Worked: Tilda Swinton and Sharon Stone
Here are two women who definitely are marching to the beat of their own drummer. Tilda Swinton won the Oscar for Best Actress in a Supporting Role for her performance in Michael Clayton. Ah, Tilda. Her incredibly unusual living arrangement (older husband, ten year old twins plus hot boyfriend) amazes and astounds. Nearly six feet tall, she often refuses to wear much makeup, wears her hair short and then asks reporters why people view her as somewhat androgynous. She's an original and we like that. But, alas, her black asymmetrical, shapeless dress was not working for us at all. On the bright side was her fabulous jewelry. Tilda wore a one-of-a-kind, award winning Sahara bracelet and a Mimosa ring. The Sahara bracelet, which evokes the dunes of the desert, is crafted by hand in 18 Kt. white gold and has 1865 diamonds totaling 47.41 carats. The Mimosa ring is made in 18 Kt. white gold and has 4.21 carats of diamonds.
Sharon Stone appeared at Elton John's after party in a white suit accessorized with Damiani diamond bracelets and rings from the Gomitolo collection.
Did she give them back at the end of the night? If we were wearing them there would be quite a scene as the bodyguards attempt to pry the jewels from our hands.
