In 2016, Julia Roberts was photographed prancing barefoot on the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival. Despite her incomplete ensemble (which was deduced to be in response to the event’s strict dress code), the joyful aura that radiated from Roberts was dazzling. She was grinning in her o%-shoulder Armani Privé gown that was paired with statement jewelry — a diamond and emerald necklace from Chopard. Roberts, who is known for her natural beauty and infectious smile, carried on at the event with graceful demeanor that did her fellow shoewearing peers no favors.
This is what Caroline Scheufele, copresident of Chopard, would later call the embodiment of joie de vivre, a French phrase to mean the enjoyment of life. Recently, Roberts became the face of the Happy Diamonds campaign, who, according to Scheufele, conveyed the collection’s spirit. “Julia is the ultimate Happy Sport woman when it comes to embodying the maison’s values. She represents an era and has shaped authentic contemporary mythologies – the trademark of all those who have left an enduring impression on the history of cinema. Chopard and Julia were absolutely destined to cross paths thanks to our mutual flamboyant magnetism, freedom-loving spirit, and inextinguishable joie de vivre.”
