The story takes place in Paris at the end of the 19th century. Among the bustling upper class society, a noblewoman named Louise (Danielle Darrieux) is particularly dazzling. Louise's husband is a very prestigious general, and the story begins with a pair of earrings given to Louise by the general.
In order to repay her gambling debt, Louise sold her earrings to a jewelry dealer at a low price and lied to her husband that the earrings were missing. Forced by the general's reputation, the jeweler told the truth truthfully. The general quietly bought the earrings back and gave them to his long-time mistress Laura (Lia Di Leo) to please her. However, not long after, the earrings came to the hands of Italian diplomat Denati (Vittorio De Sica) and eventually returned to their original owners and returned to Louise.
