From Silver Screen to Real Life: Celebrating Tiffany & Co. Jewelry’s Iconic Moments in Pop Culture
When it comes to thinking about our favorite luxury jewelry brands, there’s one name that always immediately comes to mind – Tiffany & Co. Beloved for over 185 years for their iconic style and unparalleled elegance, Tiffany Jewelry has been and will continue to be a mainstay in the world of luxury jewelry.
While Tiffany & Co. first began as a small jewelry house that served the European elite, it has evolved and grown over the last century and a half to become an industry leader and a favorite brand around the world. From its statement-making pieces to its more wearable everyday items, men and women everywhere are clamoring to find an ideal Tiffany bracelet or Tiffany necklace to add to their personal collections. After all, everyone wants to be a part of this iconic brand.
One of the main ways Tiffany & Co. has maintained its popularity over its many, many years is through pop culture. Whether it was through gracing the neck of a favorite starlet in a movie or through being worn on endless red carpets, Tiffany Jewelry has remained relevant and maintained its status as one of the world’s most covetable brands since its first introduction. Here are some of our favorite iconic pop culture moments with Tiffany & Co. jewelry.
#1 – Breakfast at Tiffany’s
It’s difficult to name a moment more iconic for the Tiffany & Co. brand than the beloved movie, Breakfast at Tiffany’s. A pop culture favorite around the world, this lighthearted film featured a Hollywood starlet wearing the brand’s most iconic necklace to date. This look has become a classic in the fashion world, being replicated endlessly on subsequent runways, in endless editorial photo shoots and across many more movie screens.
#2 – Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
Another iconic pop culture moment came courtesy of another Hollywood starlet in the 1953 movie, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. A beloved classic, this movie featured an array of custom Tiffany & Co. jewelry with unique design elements and a song that is still incredibly popular today, Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend.
#3 – Diamonds are Forever
Following the success of Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Tiffany & Co. slipped their way into another iconic film – Diamonds are Forever. This epic James Bond movie features a love interest by the name of Tiffany Case, the first of the iconic ‘Bond girls’ who drew her name from the beloved jewelry company.
#4 – The Tiffany Blue Book
Whether you love the Tiffany & Co. brand or are simply acquainted with its iconic heritage, there’s no doubt that you could recognize the brand’s signature ‘Tiffany blue’ color anywhere. This beautiful, bright blue draws its origins from the Tiffany & Co. Blue Book, a catalog that showcased the company’s most ornate pieces. While it began as a way to showcase the brand’s unique offerings, the Blue Book quickly became a coveted keepsake among collectors and casual jewelry lovers alike.
#5 – The Iconic Tiffany Diamond Necklace
Undoubtedly an icon in everything that she does, a world-renowned pop superstar certainly made a breathtaking statement at the 2019 Academy Awards when she donned a stunning 128.54-carat Tiffany Diamond necklace. Originally found in 1877 and reportedly worth $30 million, this stunning yellow diamond has only been worn by four women in nearly 150 years.
Yet another icon to wear the brand’s beloved Tiffany Diamond necklace, an R&B superstar wore it during a branded campaign with her husband. This beloved celebrity duo performed in a movie titled ABOUT LOVE, which contained a performance of the famous song, “Moon River,” which was first performed in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. This power couple has also worked with Tiffany & Co. to establish The Tiffany & Co. About Love Scholarship to support the arts and creative fields at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).
#6 – The Tiffany Engagement Ring
Since the introduction of the brand’s first engagement ring in 1886, Tiffany & Co. has been a favorite source of bridal jewelry. The iconic ‘Tiffany Setting’ has been highly sought out and recreated since its first inception, effectively becoming an immediate classic in the world of luxury bridal jewelry. In fact, this setting has remained one of the brand’s most popular pieces and has left many women around the world dreaming of their very own Tiffany engagement ring.
#7 – Legally Blonde
While not as dazzling or quite noticeable as some of our other favorite pop culture moments, the subtle elegance of the iconic Tiffany & Co. heart necklace worn by Elle Woods in Legally Blonde is one of our favorites. This is especially true when she pairs it with a matching Tiffany heart bracelet – it’s a sophisticated yet playful combination that has us head over heels in love.
When it comes to the world of luxury jewelry, there’s no brand that’s quite like Tiffany & Co. From their iconic statement-making pieces like their yellow Tiffany Diamond to their subtle Tiffany & Co. Heart bracelets and necklaces, this brand has been a pop culture favorite and will remain one for many, many years to come.
