Diamond Divas Exhibition, Antwerp

The Diamond Divas Exhibition, organised by the Antwerp World Diamond Centre, is a celebration of strong, independent and exceptional women. It showcases diamond jewellery pieces worn by Hollywood stars, celebrities and royalty from around the globe.

Highlights include the tiara worn by Madonna when she married Guy Richie at Skibo Castle, in December 2000. The Edwardian diamond tiara was loaned to Madonna by London jewellers Asprey & Garrard. Made in approximately 1910, the tiara includes 765 old cut diamonds weighing 78 carats, and another two larger diamonds with a combined weight of 2.50 carats. The tiara was specifically chosen by Madonna to complement her beautiful wedding dress, designed by Stella McCartney.

The collection includes some truly stunning pieces of diamond jewellery, and gives a fascinating insight into the women that wore them, such as Grace Kelly, Sofia Loren, the Duchess of Windsor and Marilyn Monroe.
