Spectacular cinema is found in the details: a camera angle, a fleeting expression, a directed pause.

So too does an ensemble set itself apart with tiny shining glints of glamor.  Cardigan Empire awards for best in supporting accessories follow:

Best Necklace: Amy Adams Cartier platinum and diamond necklace with carved 33.24-carat emerald   Actress Adams could have swept both the bracelet and necklace category with her shimmering analogous sapphire and emerald color harmony, but CE reserves the right to feature as many pretty gowns as possible.  (By the way, nearly no one entered the necklace category, bare collar bones are prolific this season.) (By the way of another way, pretty glitter wishes upon Ms. Adams and her deliciously modest dress, modesty on the red carpet has become unicorn scarce.)

Best Brooch: Gwyneth Paltrow Louis Vuitton “L’Ame du Voyage” high jewelry brooch The dropped waist dress makes this linear lady a bit boxy, but the color soaked curves of her brooch are high voltage.

Best Hair Jewelry: Hillary Swank Anna Hu Haute Joaillerie exotic twin orchid hairpieces Contrasting such a strong physique with such a delicately romantic piece creates an unexpected balance.

Best Earrings: Mandy Moore 10-ct. round Chopard pavé diamond earrings Sparkling globes mirror her chestnut bun. (Earring Category Runner Up: Natalie Portman)

Best Accessory Performing as a Dress: Cate Blanchett Yellow beaded detail of lilac Givency Haute Couture gown Sometimes the best adornments are built right into the ensemble.

Best Bracelets: Mila Kunis diamond and platinum Neil Lane bracelets The cocktail ring bangle combination can only be described as inspired. (ps: Quiet your rapidly searching synapses with this short phrase-Jackie from That Seventies Show)

Best Ring: Haille Steinfeld Fred Leighton heart-shaped diamond ring, set in platinum Normally the CE board sneers at heart-shaped jewelry, but this pretty little ring is so sweet and age appropriate.
