While Katseye\u2019s \u201cPinky Up\u201d performance at the 2026 American Music Awards<\/a> went full cartoon-bright, the group\u2019s red carpet jewelry told a sleeker \u2014 and much more diamond-heavy \u2014 story.<\/p>\n

Daniela Avanzini, Lara Raj, Megan Skiendiel, Sophia Laforteza and Yoonchae Jeung attended the AMAs at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Monday night wearing $328,930 worth of Tacori jewelry<\/a>, pulling the California house\u2019s bridal and engagement codes far outside the usual ring-box setting.<\/p>\n

For the global girl group, which also performed during the fan-voted awards show, the night was a sweep: Katseye won all three categories in which they were nominated, including New Artist of the Year. Their Tacori placement added another layer to that breakout moment, with crescent detailing, milgrain-edged silver, petal-crown rings, sculptural cuffs and a white-gold diamond collar split across five cohesive looks.<\/p>\n

Stylist Katie Qian divided the house codes by member, beginning with Avanzini and Laforteza, who took on much of the Crescent Eclipse story through the ears, wrists and hands. Avanzini wore Tacori\u2019s $30,790 Classic Crescent RoyalT diamond hoop earrings in 18-karat white gold, a 3.57-carat pair finished with round brilliant diamonds, side-profile diamond accents and hand-decorated milgrain. At the wrist, she stacked two Crescent Eclipse bangles: a $1,990 high-polish silver dome bangle with nested milgrain ellipses and a $12,790 Pulse Milgrain bangle in 18-karat white gold.<\/p>\n

Laforteza pushed the silver and ring story further. She wore $990 Crescent Eclipse chunky hoops with a $4,190 Crescent Eclipse 360-degree Foundation ring in 18-karat white gold, a $890 silver domed ring, a marquise petal-crown pav\u00e9 accent solitaire setting priced at $5,290 without the center stone and a $14,890 oval-cut diamond eternity band in platinum.<\/p>\n

Raj\u2019s jewelry had the most personal read. Qian placed Tacori\u2019s bridal flourishes alongside Raj\u2019s cultural headpiece, which shifted the house\u2019s engagement language into something more specific to her. Raj wore $37,090 Classic Crescent RoyalT hoops in 18-karat white gold with baguette and round-brilliant diamonds, then added a $6,190 Founder\u2019s Collection emerald east-west semi-bezel engagement setting in 14-karat white gold. Qian also styled her with a custom Tacori hand cuff.<\/p>\n

Skiendiel and Jeung gave the group its two neckline moments. For Skiendiel, Qian built the jewelry around Tacori\u2019s petal work, placing the one-of-a-kind Diamond Multi Petal Necklace high above her strapless dress. The floral idea continued with $8,990 Stilla large hoop earrings in 18-karat white gold, a pear-diamond style with milgrain-studded Crescent detailing, as well as an emerald petal-crown pav\u00e9 solitaire setting. A $890 Crescent Eclipse silver domed ring and a $5,090 Crescent Eclipse 360-degree stacked ring completed the hand styling.<\/p>\n

Jeung had the cleaner collar treatment. She wore Tacori\u2019s $17,990 Crescent Eclipse 360-degree collar, a 16-inch design in 18-karat white gold set with 1.63 carats of diamonds and finished with crescent detailing along a fine cable chain. Qian kept the earrings smaller with $790 Crescent Eclipse tapered silver hoops, then put the biggest diamond statement at the hand: a $34,090 Classic Crescent RoyalT east-west marquise-and-pear mosaic band in white gold.<\/p>\n

\"Yoonchae<\/p>\n

For Tacori, the AMAs also marked a first. The brand had not previously dressed Katseye as a full group, making Monday night a high-visibility introduction for pieces more often associated with engagement settings, bridal salons and the kind of close-up handwork usually reserved for \u201cshow me the ring\u201d moments.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was our first full-group placement with Katseye, and it felt like the right introduction,\u201d the Tacori team said. \u201cThe best part of the styling was that it had a clear point of view without making the group feel matched.\u201d<\/p>\n

WWD previously included Tacori in its guide to the best online engagement ring brands<\/a> to shop in 2026, noting the California-based jewelry house\u2019s presence in Brilliant Earth\u2019s designer assortment and its reputation for handcrafted engagement rings.<\/p>\n
