What is Ana De Armas Jewelry Campaign?

Prior to the premiere of the much-awaited Netflix biopic Blonde, Ana De Armas dives into a world Marilyn Monroe was very much familiar with—diamonds. Back in Monroe’s day, the diamond industry seemed unattainable by the ordinary market and small-time retailers. Add to that the problems of conflict diamonds and smuggled stones. Hence, only high-end brands such as Tiffany & Co. were in the business. 

However, the diamond industry is gradually innovating and becoming more inclusive and sustainable. And the empowered Ana De Armas is actively participating in this progress. Natural Diamond Council took her as an ambassador with the goal of progressing the industry. This progress, they believe, can be achieved by backing young designers from different parts of the world. Furthermore, they aim to educate consumers on the industry’s current standing.

The mission of the Natural Diamond Council is “to advance the integrity of the modern diamond jewelry industry and inspire.” The Natural Diamond Council is a strong advocate of sustainable and ethical mining. It also keeps in mind the women and families in the diamond mining community. According to NDC, it brought De Armas for the second campaign since she deeply appreciates natural diamonds and radiates a zest for life.  

Because of her poised demeanor, modernity, and ascendance in freethinking, the shoe fit her perfectly. Ana De Armas loves elegant jewelry pieces and desires that her most recent campaign can bring joy, hope, and inspiration to everyone who sees it. The tagline of the campaign that’s shot in Mallorca, Spain is “Love Life” and the actress is trying her best to embody this and inspire others. 

What Makes the Campaign Unique? 

In the campaign, we find Ana De Armas in various segments in a laid-back setting with her partner and friends—swimming, dancing, and partying. This campaign shows a fresh side to diamonds: they aren’t isolated to social events and formal occasions, as we used to believe. 

Diamonds hold different meanings. For some they are meant for every type of emotional connection. They may represent the different memories that we share with the people dearest to us, it doesn’t just elevate external beauty, but it keeps beauty shared with others. In the words of Ana De Armas, “I love thinking of diamonds this way, as special emblems of even the small personal moments in our lives. They represent joy and warmth and beauty.” 

Furthermore, we can see De Armas wearing an 11-piece diamond jewelry customized by the Brooklyn-based designer Maylia McNaughton. Also, all the brands and designers, like Lorraine Schwartz, featured in the campaign use diamonds from the producers of Natural Diamond Council.

This collaboration between Natural Diamond Council and Ana De Armas is a refreshing and insightful diamond jewelry campaign. Because of the doors it has opened, it deserves global support and recognition. Gone are the days when we view diamonds from a single vantage point and we use them on big, lavish occasions only. 

The campaign depicts a contemporary approach to diamonds, and shows that they are for big and small moments alike.  Hence, this campaign is worth every support you can give.
