There is one thing every fashion lover will probably agree on: jewelry is an amazing addition to an overall look. Fashion's jewelry category is not just the conventional necklace and earrings set; it can also encompass face jewelry, from edgy lip piercings to ornate nose rings.

Lip piercings are the latest adornment spotlighted by designers and celebrities alike. In its Fall/Winter 2022 show, Balmain's models sported striking lip cuffs suggestive of a piercing. While Balmain is known for bringing modern and innovative looks to the catwalk, one of Hollywood's biggest names offers a more classic and understated interpretation of the trend—actress Angelina Jolie.

During the Eternals premiere in Los Angeles in November of last year, Jolie was seen wearing a Balmain gown, with a particular small detail from her overall look that caught the public's attention: a lip piercing that went down to her chin. In retrospect, it seems Jolie gave the public a spoiler of the accessory that would appear on the French brand's runway months later.
