Ladies and gentlemen, take it back all the way to 2010/2011/2012, and prepare yourselves for a return of the large, bejewelled accessory known as the brooch. Whether pinned, sewn, or buttoned on, the brooch was a pretty big deal on Pakistani ensembles in the decadent decade that began in 2010, and ranged from mimicking sem-precious jewels to silk flowers.

The red carpet at the 75th Emmys was a return to a more lavish state of mind, as we saw brooches shimmer from various outfits.

Katherine Heigl in Reem Acra offset her elegant red gown with a bejewelled detail at the waist, complemented by a simple string around her neck, and her shimmering purse.

Claire Danes in Balmain wears two vintage styles in one, in a Grecian-style drape, with crystal details at the shoulders.
