Trends in Jewellery 2013
For us Indians, gold and jewellery has always
been something that has symbolised prosperity and stability of a person, family
or community. Since ancient times the amount of jewellery people used to wear
indicated power they held in the feudal hierarchy. People have worn jewellery
for visual pleasure as well as for asserting their image as a distinguished
member of the society.
That being said, the styles of jewellery like all
other fashion trends, has changes over time. Shifting focus from the heavy gold
laden kings and queens the world today is
mostly of the view that minimalistic display of ornaments is the in-thing.
Also, loud jewellery is now a thing of either the past or is adorned by specific
communities.
Over the years, the focus has shifted from gold to silver and
slowly to platinum, diamonds and other precious stones. It is more about
fashion in the world today. In many ways, it is
the celebrities who set the style trends. Their looks, jewellery included, are
watched, judged and often copied.
Over the past few years, diamonds have continued to stay a girl’s best friends. The coloured stones are also very much in the lime light. The main event of the year is the glorious comeback of the classic yellow diamond, having a leading position in the majority of fashion collections.
The other colour hues are also enjoying a great popularity as well. If precious stones are beyond your means, don’t hesitate to pay your attention to semi-precious stones, such as tourmaline, peridot, aquamarine.
As far as big brands go, here are the top trends you can incorporate in your jewellery and accessory closet-

the snake in Chinese zodiac and its curving, slithering shape is the design

and shapes and sharp edges reminiscent of the tribal style are another big

Agate stones - Diamonds are forever, but for Spring 2013 jewellery made with emeralds
and druzy stones and agate rock formations is a big trend. The white agate and
druzy are especially beautiful with gold metal.

to come.
