Margot Robbie's 'Wuthering Heights' Premiere Necklace Could Buy a Hollywood Mansion
Margot Robbie always brings it for every press run, and this time, it was no different at the Wuthering Heights premiere in Los Angeles.
Robbie wore a lacy, bodice-clinging custom Schiaparelli gown with a dramatic skirted flair, and for the main event, a legendary $8.8 million dollar necklace that could buy up a Hollywood mega mansion, or two.
The Necklace Has Old Hollywood Ties
The gold, bejeweled heart-shaped necklace that Robbie stepped out in at the LA premiere once belonged to Elizabeth Taylor.
It was gifted to the Old Hollywood star by her then-husband Richard Burton, who she married twice, for her 40th birthday, according to Vogue.

Interestingly, the jewelry's original origins go even further back — way, way back. It was first a gift from a Mughal emperor, Shah Jahangir, to his wife, Nur Jahan, in the 1600s. If one looks closely, it has a romantic inscription on it in Parsee that reads: “Love is Everlasting."
The necklace was then passed down to their son, Shah Jahan, who then gifted it to his own wife, Mumtaz Mahal. When she passed away, the emperor commissioned the Taj Mahal mausoleum as a tribute, which then inspired the jewel's name.
Robbie told Extra, “It is the Taj Mahal diamond, so it felt like it had a lot of romantic history and felt appropriate for tonight.”
After Taylor's passing, the diamond was auctioned at Christie's and valued at $8.8 million dollars.
100-Carat Diamond Necklace
Continuing Robbie's high fashion and jeweled looks at the Wuthering Heights premiere in Paris, the actress also donned a whopping 100-carat diamond choker necklace.
Renowned jeweler, Lorraine Schwartz, shared on her Instagram story, detailing Robbie's "Victorian-inspired" bejeweled look, calling it "breathtaking."
The jewelry designer gave further insight, stating: "Loved designing and making this nude 100 carat diamond choker and earrings."
'Wuthering Heights' Release Date Info
Wuthering Heights is adapted from the acclaimed novel by Emily Brontë.
The film is a rendition of the book by filmmaker Emerald Fennell, who recalled to The Hollywood Reporter that the original novel is her "favorite book in the world."
“Like many people who love this book, I’m kind of fanatical about it, so I knew right from the get-go I couldn’t ever hope to make anything that could even encompass the greatness of this book," she said. "All I could do was make a movie that made me feel the way the book made me feel, and therefore it just felt right to say it’s Wuthering Heights, and it isn’t.”
The film will hit theaters on February 13, 2026.
