The Art of Red Carpet Styling
Zanna’s jewelry choices weren’t just about aesthetics—they reflected the essence of North American craftsmanship. “People don’t always realize how different North American quality feels until they experience it,” she shared. “The meticulous attention to detail, the weight, and the way each piece sits against your skin—it’s all intentional.”
Beyond exceptional craftsmanship, sustainability played a key role. “Knowing these pieces are handcrafted with sustainable materials makes them even more meaningful,” Zanna noted. On a night that honors artistic excellence, her jewelry choices carried the same depth of intention.
As the Academy Awards celebrated the year’s cinematic achievements, Zanna’s red carpet moment showcased the power of thoughtful styling—where every piece tells a story. At the 97th Oscars, Ecksand didn’t just accessorize the night; it became part of it.
