MUMBAI: The India International Jewelry Week (IIJW), the country’s first such extravaganza, organized by the Gem and Jewelry Export Promotion Council (GJEPC) – is being run from August 15th to 19th at the Hotel Grand Hyatt in Mumbai.
Katrina Kaif, Dino Morea, Lilette Dubey with daughter Ira, who impressed everyone with her performance in recently released ‘Aisha’ – all these Bollywood stars Sunday glittered on the ramp flaunting exotic jewelry and exquisite designs from the three brands of the Gitanjali Luxury group – Queenie for Giantti, Essentia by Mirari, and Nakshatra.
The Queenie for Giantti collection epitomized the power of women and celebrated her style from Cleopatra to contemporary women. The line had a combination of pearls, diamonds and gold in the form of necklaces, heavy earrings and armlets. Tribal designs that had exotic bazubands – reminded onlookers of the Cleopatra era, while a few pieces in turquoise looked contemporary.
Essentia by Mirari was dedicated to eternal love and the collection was titled ‘The Wedding vows’ – it offered heavy necklaces in ruby and gold mix, a lot of pearls and diamonds. The designs were a confluence of many ancient and decorative traditions with the modern touch.
Nakshatra had an exotic and delicate diamond line that is meant for festivities.
Queenie, who has her own range with Geetanjali called Queenie for Giantti, said: ‘Times have changed and so have women. So today they express themselves with various things – be it clothes, style or jewellery. They are aware what suits them and what is the best buy for them.’
Gitanjali sub-brands Gili, Sangani, D’dmas and Asmi too showcased their collection at the second show of the day.
While Sangani and Gili had small and delicate pieces of diamond jewelry perfect for any evening event, D’dmas and Asmi presented a range of chunky, heavy yet very attractive designs in diamonds.
