Helen Mirren Winner 2007
After her third nomination, Helen Mirren won the Oscar for Best Actress for her title role in The Queen by Stefen Frears. The delicate needlework of her champagne-colored dress served as a frame for the Chopard “Haute Joaillerie” brooch she selected, made of white and cognac diamonds (62 carats). She decided to suspend the piece from the back of her bustier. On her wrist, she wore a bracelet of marquise cut diamonds sculpted into a floral band (55 carats), accompanied by sublime diamond earrings (16 carats).
