The Montblanc Lumiere necklace features a Montblanc star diamond, and 3,050 stones totaling 378.74 carats. [Elite Choice](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-lifts) notes, "Another diamond necklace called Montblanc Eclat with attuned earrings also dominated people's mind. Valued at $2.415 million, the diamond is festooned with 1,464 diamonds for a total of 58.75 carats. For being a complete woman, I would propose you to pick earrings as well retailed at $810,000. It makes a perfect match." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 23% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Ultra Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/ultraluxury) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Luxury Jewelry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating high-end jewelry with unique and innovative designs. - **Diamond Fashion Shows:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introducing new experiences and formats for showcasing high-value jewelry, such as virtual reality fashion shows. - **High-value Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing exclusive and personalized accessories, like luxury watches or handbags, with premium materials and craftsmanship. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Jewelry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporating technology, such as wearable devices or smart jewelry, into traditional jewelry designs. - **Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborating with luxury brands to create limited edition collections or designer collaborations. - **Luxury Goods:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Enhancing the customer experience with personalized services and customizations, like bespoke luxury goods. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Ultra-Luxurious Pet Collars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pet-jewelry1.md) - [Prestigious Holiday Surprises](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prestigious-holiday-surprises.md) - [Haute Diamond-Studded Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loewe-and-jacob-co.md) - [South Korean Diamond Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lotte-world-tower.md) - [High-End Organic Statement Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/s-carter-designs.md) - [Adventure-Inspired Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/high-jewelry-collection1.md) - [Opulent Dragon-Themed Pens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/montblanc-3.md) - [High-End Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pure-v.md) - [Lavish Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fine-jewelry-advent-calendar.md)
