Here’s a quick trick to elevate your LBD: add 34 carats of Colombian emeralds.
While Marisa Abela attended the 2026 BAFTA Television Awards last night purely as a presenter, a jaw-dropping gem choker ensured she looked the part of a winner.
The Industry star hit the London awards show dressed in a black, figure-hugging, off-the-shoulder Prada dress. While that easily placed well within best dressed territory as is, the gargantuan emerald nestled in Abela’s clavicle took the look from sleek to spotlight-stealing.
The actor opted for a one-of-a-kind necklace—dubbed the Cleopatra collar—from British jeweler Henry & Henry. A 34-carat Colombian emerald as clear and green as a chlorinated swimming pool sat on an 18k yellow gold collar with a black rhodium finish. While Abela kept her hair down, the necklace is an artful endeavor from all angles: hanging from the back of the gold chain were two more emeralds.
