Cartier Releases Latest High Jewelry Collection 'En Equilibre'
The new Traforato necklace form the En Equilibre collection. The official High Jewelry showings in January and July in Paris align with the Haute Couture. Both attract a similar customer: a discerning client with superior tastes and deep pockets. The Cannes Film Festival is also where these categories flourish in visibility, especially the high jewelry, which has used the high-profile event to promote their exquisite and expensive creations on the Red Carpet. Cartier is no exception, with this season boasting styles on Elle Fanning, Catherine Deneuve, and Gong Li. However, to introduce its 115-piece 'En Equilibre' collection, the Place Vendôme jewelry house explored a new region, Stockholm, Sweden, where they unveiled the collection. To celebrate, the brand hosted a formal gala evening at Artipelag art gallery on the waters of the archipelago. The celebration festivities began in Stockholm proper with an exhibition of the collection in the historic Nacka Strandmässen industrial building featuring an open sky vista where guests witness Maison's expert artisans demonstrate the savoir-faire behind the Panthère Dentelée necklace. Highlights of the new collections include The Tsagaan necklace, which features a subtly discernible image of a snow leopard—whose coat makes it hard to spot in the wild— which is mimicked in the diamond and black onyx necklace with an angular design that comes to a point in the center where the face of the elusive big cat appears. Three octagonal emeralds inspired the Traforato necklace, which also has a sharp design motif with a setting that resembles a zig-zag and a cascade of round diamonds hanging from diamond and emerald baguettes. Two shield-cut diamonds inspire the Skudo ring with a graphic and balanced appearance, reaching a point at the ring top. Guests such as friends of the Maison Zoe Saldaña and Swede Alexander Skarsgard, brand ambassadors Deepika Padukone and Anna Sawai, and other VIP attendees were ferried by boat to the art museum that combines architecture and nature.

According to a collection release, En Equilibre echoes the design space with a visual harmony that balances colors, length, and volume and 'the space between full and empty and symmetry and asymmetry.' Stockholm also expressed the equilibrium, where creativity and design evoke the balance between urban life and nature and innovation and tradition. Its balance recalls a 'sense of minimalism or lagom: neither too much nor too little.' The High Jewelry pieces were showcased in a 'tableaux vivant'—models dressed in Giambattista Valli's Prêt-à- designs lead the way to the gala dinner. The evening continued with a performance devised by the Canadian rock band The Beaches and a DJ set by Dorion Fiszel.

French actress Catherine Deneuve joins over 900 stars in signing petition denouncing Gaza genocide
France's Catherine Deneuve has joined over 900 cinema figures who have signed an open letter denouncing alleged "genocide" in Gaza and the movie industry's failure to speak up about it, organisers told the media on Friday. The petition began circulating during the buildup to the Cannes film festival and had garnered around 380 names including "Schindler's List" star Ralph Fiennes when the event kicked off on May 13. An update issued by organisers on Friday included more than 900 names, including Deneuve, British director Danny Boyle and Swedish actor Gustaf Skarsgard. The initiative, called "Artists for Fatem", was sparked by the killing of Palestinian photojournalist Fatima ("Fatem") Hassouna, who was the subject of a documentary that premiered at Cannes week. Hassouna, 25, was killed in an Israeli air strike along with 10 relatives in her family home in northern Gaza last month, the day after the documentary was announced as part of the ACID Cannes selection. Palestinians inspect the site of an Israeli strike on a house in Jabalia, in the northern Gaza Strip, on Friday. Reuters "As artists and cultural players, we cannot remain silent while genocide is taking place in Gaza and this unspeakable news is hitting our communities hard," the open letter says. Other signatories include Juliette Binoche, who is chairing the jury at Cannes, Rooney Mara, Jonathan Glazer, US indie director Jim Jarmusch, "Lupin" star Omar Sy, Richard Gere, Susan Sarandon, Pedro Almodovar and Mark Ruffalo. Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, who is in Cannes to promote a documentary about his life, has also signed the letter, organisers said Friday. He posed for photographers on Tuesday with a T-shirt bearing the names of killed Gaza children. On Thursday, Gaza's health ministry said at least 3,613 people had been killed in the territory since Israel resumed strikes on March 18, taking the war's overall toll to 53,762, mostly civilians. Hamas's October 2023 attack that triggered the war resulted in the deaths of 1,218 people in Israel, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally based on official figures. Agence France-Presse
