Back-to-Front: The Bold New Red Carpet Jewelry Trend You Need to Know About

Red carpet moments are about much more than just stunning outfits—they’re an opportunity for stars to push boundaries and make unforgettable statements. In 2025, a fresh jewelry trend is making waves, and it’s completely reimagining how we think of accessorizing. Forget traditional chokers and statement necklaces sitting around the neck—this season, it’s all about turning your jewelry around. The latest fashion move? Wearing necklaces on your back. Yes, you read that right. Stars are flipping the script and turning their jewelry into a statement that goes beyond the typical two-dimensional look.
Turning the Tables: Celebrities Lead the Charge
The red carpet at the 2025 Oscars became the stage for one of the most exciting twists in jewelry styling we’ve seen in years. Margaret Qualley and Michelle Yeoh in Balenciaga and Maison Boucheron diamonds made the bold decision to rock their necklaces in an unexpected way—draped across their backs. This avant-garde move isn’t just a trend; it’s an experience, adding a whole new dimension to the art of accessorizing.
Margaret Qualley, in particular, caught the fashion world’s eye with her stunning backless custom Chanel gown. The dress, inspired by a 2005 design worn by Nicole Kidman in a Chanel No. 5 ad, was paired with a breathtaking Chanel High Jewelry necklace—draped elegantly over her back. The combination of the striking gown and necklace brought a sense of boldness and refinement to the event, showing that jewelry can be just as much about an experience as it is about the statement it makes.
At the 2025 Grammys, Sabrina Carpenter wowed in a light blue JW Anderson dress, paired with a striking 50-carat Chopard necklace. The dazzling piece seemed to pay homage to Shirley Maclaine’s iconic pearl-adorned backless gown from the 1964 film What a Way to Go!
A Timeless Look, Reimagined
While it’s clear this trend draws inspiration from fashion history, it feels incredibly fresh. Necklaces on the back may remind us of vintage glamour, but this modern take gives the look a new, elevated energy. The juxtaposition of intricate jewelry against the bare skin of the back is daring, seductive, and absolutely chic—perfect for red carpet moments that demand attention.
Bollywood Takes the Lead
While the Oscars may have ignited this trend, it’s already spreading beyond Hollywood. The back necklace trend has crossed oceans, landing in Bollywood thanks to the ever-stylish Sonam Kapoor. Recently, the actress wore a couture hand-painted Anamika Khanna gown with a necklace delicately placed along her back. Jewels by Amrapali Jewels & ring Solitario Diamonds, Kapoor’s graceful take on this avant-garde accessory proves that this trend is more than just a passing fad—it’s about to dominate fashion circuits globally, including in India. The marriage of contemporary couture and bold, unexpected jewelry makes it clear: the back necklace trend is here to stay.
Why the Back Necklace Trend is a Game-Changer
The beauty of wearing a necklace on your back lies in its ability to transform an outfit in ways a traditional necklace never could. It draws the eye to a different part of the body, turning what was once a hidden canvas into a statement of its own. This trend allows for more creativity and storytelling within an ensemble, and as we’ve seen from stars like Margaret Qualley and Sonam Kapoor, it feels incredibly modern and innovative.
In a world where fashion is all about creating experiences, this trend allows for an added layer of intrigue. It invites curiosity: is the jewelry an extension of the dress, or is it an entirely new work of art in its own right? The back necklace trend speaks to the power of reimagining the expected, giving new life to what we thought we knew about accessorizing.
Ready to Rock the Back Necklace?
If you’re ready to step into this bold new world of accessorizing, it’s easier than ever to try it for yourself. Look for dresses or tops with open back designs that allow you to showcase a dramatic necklace from behind. Many jewelry houses are already offering pieces designed specifically for this trend—delicate chains, sparkling diamonds, and artistic designs that will drape beautifully down your back.
And while the red carpet may be the perfect place to show off your back necklace, there’s no reason you can’t bring this bold look into your own wardrobe. Whether you’re attending a special event or simply want to add an unexpected twist to your evening look, the back necklace trend is the perfect way to elevate your style.
The 2025 Oscars and the rise of the back necklace trend prove that jewelry is about more than just enhancing an outfit—it’s about creating an experience. As stars like Margaret Qualley, Michelle Yeoh, and Sonam Kapoor are showing, wearing your necklace in a new way can be as daring as it is stylish. So, if you’re looking to make a statement in your own fashion journey, take a page from the red carpet and try this bold, back-to-front look. It’s time to turn your jewelry into an experience—and the back necklace trend is just the way to do it.

Bollywood Actress Richa Chadha Inaugurated Limelight Diamonds Store Launch in Prayagraj
The fast-growing lab grown diamond jewellery Brand aims to open more than 12 stores in the coming months to cater to the increasing demand of LGD jewellery in the country

Limelight Diamonds, India’s largest lab grown diamond brand, is thrilled to open its first store in Prayagraj and 31st across India. The new store signifies the rapid expansion of the Brand’s retail footprint as it strengthens the Brand’s presence in its prominent market. The store was inaugurated by popular Bollywood Actress, Richa Chadha who added a touch of glamour and charm to the occasion alongside the vibrant presence of the Brand’s Co-Founder, Mr. Nirav Bhatt along with regional partner, Mr. Pankaj Singh.
Lavishly spread across an area of 1300 sq. ft., the new store boasts an exquisite collection of solitaire necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings that perfectly blend new-age technology and traditional fine jewellery, establishing itself as the ultimate solitaire destination. In the last two years, the Brand has seen rapid growth and has the widest reach in the country for LGD jewellery with a presence across 35+ cities including Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi, Jaipur, Varanasi, Hyderabad, Rajkot, Bangalore, Chennai etc with 30+ stores and 40+ shop-in-shops.

Admiring the Brand’s collection, popular Bollywood Actress, Richa Chadha said, “I am simply in awe of the store and the concept of lab grown diamonds. They are made in India and I think every Indian woman will take pride in wearing these diamonds. The best part of the Brand is their USP in solitaire-based designs. Their solitaire range is classy, bold and elegant with modern designs crafted using the latest technology. Plus, their practical price points make them widely accessible. They are truly a bigger and bolder upgrade. I congratulate team Limelight for bringing this interesting concept of lab grown diamonds and wish them the very best.”
The store’s retail design seamlessly reflects the brand’s ethos of elegance, modernity, sustainability, and luxury. Inside, the brand illustrates a clean and minimalistic decor that radiates the beauty of their lab grown diamond jewellery. Shoppers will enjoy an immersive experience, with a never-seen-before range of solitaire designs that are not only beautiful & elegant but also wearable. Additionally, the Brand’s customer services include design customisation, lifetime buyback, and a 100% exchange guarantee along with value-protected complementary jewellery insurance and more, which further instils trust and confidence in the consumers visiting the store.
Expressing her excitement, Pooja Sheth Madhavan, Founder & MD of Limelight Diamonds says, “Having received such fantastic customer response for our brand, it brings me great joy and pride to open up our latest store in Prayagraj. Known for its rich culture and spiritual significance, it is one of the major pilgrimage destinations that has also seen a significant infrastructure growth recently. This unique fusion of tradition and modern progress makes it an ideal location to establish our presence, aligning perfectly with Limelight’s vision of combining tradition with modern luxury. Like all other cities, we hope to garner just as much appreciation for the premium quality, make and designs of our jewellery from our customers here as well. The cherry on the top is the affordable price points, of course!”

Speaking of the growth in LGD industry she further adds, “The LGD industry in India is seeing a 15-20% year on year growth owing to rising acceptance of the product amongst consumers. Awareness of the LGDs has significantly increased & almost every customer walking into our store is aware that lab diamonds are absolutely real as they are also made of carbon & identical to mined diamonds. Given that they are the same but LGDs are more affordable as they save up on the heavy mining costs that are incurred in natural ones, consumers are considering upgrading their jewellery experience with lab grown diamonds. Maintaining the same budgets, LGDs serve as the perfect upgrade for all the people who would love to move from small diamond studded jewellery to solitaires as well as who choose to spend their money wisely. Over and above, buyback and exchange opportunities by brands like Limelight ensure that the value of the branded product is locked and protected to enjoy their bling and at the same time, be conscious of their choice.”
The growing awareness and acceptance of lab grown diamonds is undoubtedly disrupting the traditional gem and jewellery industry. With the recent entry of the Tata Group into the lab grown diamond space, consumer confidence in these sustainable and ethical alternatives has received a significant boost.
Furthermore, lab grown diamond jewellery brands are now offering attractive buyback and exchange schemes, reinforcing trust and driving consumer adoption. Today, lab grown diamonds account for an estimated 20% of the global gem and jewellery market, and India is experiencing an impressive 15% annual growth in this sector.
The strength of the Brand is not only validated in the store presence across the country but also reflected in the consumer pick-up and response in sales. The branded sales have tripled year on year resulting in a boost in the Company’s confidence to directly engage with customers and expand its retail presence. With the growing market presence, the Brand continues to strengthen its customer base, offering them an exquisite range of never-seen-before solitaire diamond jewellery.
