One of my favourite parts of couture isn't the dream dresses (but I AM a big fan), but the little details - like these bejewelled rings backstage.

Is there a designer worn more on the red carpet than Elie Saab? Chances are the majority of the 48 looks have been snapped up for the coming awards season, and I'm pretty sure this low-cut navy number is on that list.
