Given the recent ubiquity of casual backyard weddings, we think it's about time for a return to all-out glamour—a category that jewelry designer Alexis Bittar never fails to deliver on. His latest collection—which marks the opening of the St. Regis Hotel's Bahia Beach Resort in Puerto Rico—is inspired by the hotel group's founding patroness, Caroline Astor. Her love of diamonds and pearls is mixed with Bittar's signature hand-carved Lucite, resulting in three flaunt-worthy pieces that would have made the legendary style maven proud. I think the Lucite drop earrings, in particular, would add some serious pizzazz to a glamorous wedding gown—they're subtle enough not to overwhelm, but still dripping with style.—Leigh Bond
