All eyes were on Dua Lipa as she arrived on the Met Gala red carpet. As one of the co-hosts of the fashion evening – which honored designer Karl Lagerfeld – Dua appeared in a glamorous look.
She wore a white ball gown by Chanel, the same design that Claudia Schiffer wore for the Fall 1992 collection. The choice of accessories – especially the diamond necklace – has an interesting history.
Dua is the first person to wear Tiffany & Co.'s new Legendary Diamond, which is set in the brand's Lucida Star pendant.
The Legendary White Diamond is over 100 carats and is an homage to the iconic Tiffany Yellow Diamond. The original 128.54-carat yellow Tiffany diamond was found in 1977 in the Kimberley diamond mines of South Africa and has since become one of Tiffany's most famous items.
Only four women have worn the original Tiffany diamond: Mary Whitehouse, Audrey Hepburn, Lady Gaga and Beyonce.
