The second trend, Diamonds with Gemstones<\/strong>, promotes the idea of embracing the playful side of natural diamonds by complementing them with colourful gemstones. This trend is expected to be popular with consumers who are spiritedly glamourous and have a youthful approach to jewellery.<\/p>\n The third trend is Modern Solitaire<\/strong>, which celebrates the timeless elegance of a single diamond and highlights the \u2018power of one\u2019. This trend speaks to those who appreciate the essence of exclusivity and eternality. Solitaire jewellery needs to now be considered beyond the traditional norms of engagement rings and become a staple in every modern heirloom one adorns. This twist to the classic is expected to be popular amongst the chic sophisticates.<\/p>\n Richa Singh, Managing Director, Natural Diamond Council India & The Middle East, <\/strong>said, \u201cOur 2023 jewellery trend report is an ode to the rising popularity of maximalism, as consumers look for innovative ways of self-expression. At the same time, even though trends may be cyclical in nature, what remains constant is our love for jewellery. We are asking consumers to celebrate their individuality through the beauty of timeless natural diamonds, albeit in a larger-than-life manner, because they are the perfect symbols of slow fashion; whether it’s through Statement Jewellery, mixing them up with colour or as modern solitaires.\u201d<\/p>\n Sarah Royce-Greensill, Jewellery & Watches Editor, Telegraph UK, <\/strong>said, \u201c<\/strong>We\u2019re seeing pared-back looks when it comes to hair and makeup. Colourless chokers in natural diamonds reflect this clean aesthetic, imparting modernity, while oversized earrings have become newly relevant when hair is slicked back, rather than loose and voluminous.\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Nonita Kalra, Editor in Chief, Tata CliQ Luxury, <\/strong>commented, \u201cWhen there is optimism, there is colour. I\u2019m also enjoying this insouciance with natural diamonds. Earlier, there were rules that you couldn\u2019t mix them with less precious stones, but people are having so much fun with this rainbow palette.\u201d<\/p>\n HH Maharani Radhikaraje Gaekwad of Baroda, <\/strong>stated, \u201cSolitaires are eternal in more ways than one. It’s the diamond that shines through, and I love that about it because there is so much simplicity and grace, with just the sparkle of the diamonds where there’s no overlap of design. And I have found myself wearing a string of solitaires or a ring more often.\u201d<\/p>\n Katerina Perez, Gemmologist, Journalist & leading jewellery influencer, <\/strong>noted, \u201cIn the way they underline the neck, chokers help us explore our feminine side and express our sensuality. There is a resurgence now because they are more modern, more interesting, adapted to the way we style jewellery today.\u201d<\/p>\n Rhea Kapoor, Film Producer & Stylist, <\/strong>said, <\/strong>\u201cStones and metals close to a person\u2019s face can change the way they are perceived, especially in a photograph. Emeralds can light up one\u2019s face, whereas gold and silver both have a different effect. One of my favourite necklaces that I inherited from my mother is with amethyst and uncut natural diamonds. Jewellery shouldn\u2019t be about telling people how precious it is. It should be about you are enjoying it and finding value in it.\u201d<\/p>\n Roohi Oomerbhoy Jaikishan, Entrepreneur & Fashion Icon<\/strong>, said, \u201cThere is romance and adrenaline in buying a natural diamond. The feel of a solitaire that is yet to be set between your fingers is sensorial and tactile, a fully immersive experience. When it comes to solitaires, I have a predilection towards different shapes and cuts. I wear heart-shaped natural diamonds and have variety in my collection. I do covet an Asscher cut.\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/gjepc.org\/solitaire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/NDC-Trend-report-India-3-1-801x1000.jpg\"){kind=spacer}
