Love it or hate it? Vote for PeeCee's Golden Globes look
For the Oscars in February last year, PeeCee told E! News that she wanted 'to be comfortable' and wear 'something that lasts all evening -- it's not ripping.'
She chose a 'naked' dress by Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad and people loved the sweetheart neckline and the delicate detailing.
She was also wearing jewellery, inset, that cost somewhere in the neighbourhood of $8 million!
The Lorraine Schwartz's creations, which included 50 carat diamond earrings (worth $3.2 million), a 22 carat diamond ring (worth $3.4 million), a 10 carat diamond pinky ring (worth $850,000) and an 8 carat diamond bypass ring (worth $300,000).

How Priyanka prepared for the Oscars
The scarlet Jason Wu gown Priyanka chose for the Emmys in September 2016 was perfect for a red carpet twirl.
She captioned it perfectly as 'emoji chic'.
The actress paired it with discreet Neil Lane jewellery (discretion, as it often does, came at a steep price -- about $1 million) to let the dress do the talking.
That evening she joined actor Tom Hiddleston to present the Outstanding Directing For A Limited Series, Movie Or Dramatic Special Award to Susanne Bier for The Night Manager, in which Hiddleston played the lead.

Quantico works only because of Priyanka
The tulle-bottomed mermaid gown she picked for the Screen Actors Guild Awards in January last year was designed by Monique Lhuillier -- a California designer best known for her bridal wear -- and accessorised with jewellery, inset, by New York designer Kimberly McDonald, whose creations have been worn by American First Lady Michelle Obama in the past.
