Last week was the 70th anniversary of the world renowned Cannes Film Festival, where our chairman Michel Lamunière and CrazyRouge were reporting live from the red carpet. It also marked the 20th anniversary of Chopard's enduring collarboration with the festival—the high jewellery maison has been serving as Official Partner of the Cannes Film Festival since 1998.

This long-standing union first began on May 23, 1998 when the acting president of the festival at the time personally requested the co-President of Chopard, Caroline Scheufele, to redesign the iconic Palme d’Or award.

To celebrate 20 incredible years of partnership, Chopard has once again unveiled the Red Carpet Collection, featuring 70 new jewelled creations for the Festival’s 70th anniversary. First introduced in 2007 to mark the 60th anniversary, the collection is a modern and audacious interpretation of classic red carpet favourites. If you’re a Ri-Ri fan, they also showcased the highly anticipated new Rihanna Loves Chopard Haute Joaillerie Collection at Cannes.
