Star stylist Erin Walsh once changed an A-lister’s entire red carpet look because of a ‘perfect’ necklace

During a conversation at Bucherer‘s Fifth Avenue flagship in NYC this week, celebrity stylist Erin Walsh discussed her work dressing clients like Anne Hathaway and Selena Gomez — and decking them out in diamonds.

While the gown traditionally comes before the jewels, sometimes it’s the other way around; Walsh revealed that she swapped Alison Brie’s look for January’s Golden Globes after finding the most “perfect” Y-shaped diamond necklace from Bucherer.

“I changed the dress for the necklace,” she recalled. “The necklace needed a moment.”

Featuring more than 100 brilliant-cut diamonds set in 18-karat white gold, the “sophisticated” style “drips” down the chest and “looks like it’s part of the body,” as the “Art of Intentional Dressing” author put it.

Along with the necklace (and a matching pear-shaped diamond ring), Brie walked the red carpet wearing a plunging black Anna October gown with sultry ruching and super-skinny straps.

Bucherer’s Art Deco-inspired Baguette Love earrings, meanwhile, have proven to be a perfect pairing for Gomez, who wore them with a white Ralph Lauren pantsuit at the Palm Springs International Film Festival Film Awards in 2025 and with a sparkling red Prada gown at last month’s Rare Impact Fund Benefit.

The logistics of safely shuttling six (or more) figures’ worth of precious stones to and from her superstar clients can be “hilarious,” she said.

“I don’t think people realize, but when I work with Bucherer, walking around, it looks like I either robbed somebody or am in the mafia,” quipped Walsh, who’s also placed pieces on Mindy Kaling and Mariska Hargitay recently.

“I have a very intense black briefcase, and walking into the lobby of the hotel, it’s like [I’m doing] a deal.”

It’s all worth it for the payoff of a perfect red carpet moment, with Walsh saying, “Jewelry is a mood lifter. It ignites something in you. When someone puts on something and they feel great in it, it’s usually pretty obvious.”

There’s one thing you’ll never see on any of her A-listers, though: an even number of rings.

“I learned this from a client many years ago,” she said. “It’s like feng shui, if you think about three, six and nine [considered lucky numbers in Chinese culture].”

Joked Walsh: “I have a disease of ‘more is more.’ If you really love jewelry, wear nine necklaces!”
