Julia Roberts Shares Her Favourite Feel-Good Moment From Cannes
In the latest instalment of Chopard Loves Cinema, the brand ambassador shares how anything is possible when combining the magic of film and a can-do attitude
A mid-week dose of happiness is always appreciated, especially when it comes with the charming smile and infectious energy of Julia Roberts.
The award-winning actress has joined forces with the Swiss luxury jeweller and watchmaker for the Chopard Loves Cinema video series, sharing tidbits of feel-good energy with the world in the form of a digital series.
In the latest episode, the actress reveals one of her favourite Cannes memories, how a moment that could have turned into a disaster became a “Cannes-do.”
“The first time I was there, running late and racing down the hallway, somebody was still sewing me into my dress, right? We were all running down the hallway to the elevator,” the brand ambassador smiles, acting out the motion of a seamstress furiously stitching her into her gown, a breathtaking necklace with a yellow diamond pendant delicately dangling from her neck. “And like somebody sewing… I just thought… it’s so classic! It was a Cannes-do moment.”
Weighing over 100 carats, the Chopard necklace in the video that Julia wears is the very same one that she wore to the 2022 Cannes Film Festival, a talisman of positive energy. A longtime patron of cinema, the house has been the main sponsor of the festival for years now, cementing itself as a patron of the 7th art (and this year was certainly no exception.)
Chopard Loves Cinema
Directed by award-winning film director and screenwriter James Gray, the entire series focuses on a reoccurring theme of the power of positivity – mirroring the upbeat energy of Chopard’s most famous pieces and high jewellery collections.
Combining the magic of cinema with the creative, joyfuls spirits of James and Julia the series is one that deserves to be revisited, time and time again, for a daily boost of happiness.
