Another client of Jason Rembert that evening was hip-hop icon Mary J. Blige, who wore an all-white ensemble from Tony Ward Couture, complemented by jewelry by Pristine Jewelers.
This isn’t the first time that Blige wore pieces by Pristine Jewelers. In fact, she wore a stunning 250-carat heart-shaped diamond chandelier made by the jeweler earlier in June, when she attended the Time 100 Gala as an honoree.
