The origin of his love for pearls stretches back to 2019 when he walked on the red carpet at the Met Gala wearing a single pearl earring. In the following months, Harry explored further pearl necklaces on suits. His preference has always been the white pearl. Whether on a tailored suit or in sweatshirts, the freshwater pearl has always been there.
