with contemporary style.

Whether you're dressing up for Lakshmi Puja, card parties, or festive gatherings, here's what's trending in costume jewellery this season.

1. STATEMENT EARRINGS STEAL THE SHOW

Big, bold earrings continue to be the focal point of many festive outfits. Think oversized jhumkas, chandbalis, or contemporary danglers with geometric patterns and vibrant stones. Many designs incorporate traditional motifs like lotus, peacocks, and paisleys but with a modern twist-be it through enamel detailing mirror work, or unusual colour combinations. These pieces can elevate even the simplest kurta or saree and are perfect for those who want their jewellery to do all the talking.

This Diwali, the layered look is in. Combining chokers with long chains or rani haars creates a regal, multi-dimensional effect.

Chokers inspired by temple jewellery are making a comeback, often designed in antique gold tones with intricate deity carvings. On the other hand, those looking for a softer aesthetic are opting for pearl-embellished or kundan-based layered necklaces. The mix of textures and lengths adds drama while maintaining elegance, perfect for pairing with lehengas or anarkalis.
