Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, but they are also fair game for any man who wants to inject a healthy dose of bling into his look. Necklaces, earrings and bracelets can elevate even the simplest of looks. A white T-shirt and jeans might not look like much on their own, but sprinkle a few diamonds on your wrist or your neck and it’s a different story. Gemstones have the power to make an outfit, whether they come in the form of heirlooms, keepsakes or gifts from loved ones that mark special occasions or milestones.

Take new crooner on the block, Giveon. Having just released Give Or Take, his first full-length album of soul-wrenching, melodic rhythm and blues, and with Grammy-nominated tracks with industry giants Drake and Mr Justin Bieber under his belt, his on- and off-duty looks have caught MR PORTER’s eye.

Topped off with diamonds, pearls and other precious stones layered in sparkling abundance, Giveon’s red-carpet appearances and music videos pull looks from Balenciaga and Bottega Veneta. At home, he rotates thrifted T-shirts, double denim and oversized varsity jackets.

He has dazzled at the Met Gala. First, as a guest of Valentino in a head-to-toe teal ensemble in 2021, and again this year, under the venerable wing of Chanel, when he sported a black tweed blouson embellished with pearls, a classic white shirt, black tuxedo trousers and boots polished to a high shine, decked out with three tiered necklaces, several rings and a chunky dress watch.
