Celebrity jewellery designer Farah Ali Khan who   has created jewellery for celebrities like  Kareena Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra Deepika Padukone and international  names like Beyonce and Serena Williams. Has just collaborated with CaratLane, India’s leading omni-channel jeweller for an exclusive jewellery collection line – Ornati. Inspired by the fun-loving, fearless and feminine charm of every youthful heart, Ornati is a work of art by Farah. It is a selection of ornate and adventurous designs, with real connection to the women who inspire them.

Here Farah Ali Khan shares the top trends for jewellery   –

There is a demand for fresh new ideas rather than the typical traditional jewellery designs.

There is a vast shift from white diamonds and polka to coloured stones.

Newer products like armlets with chains, ear cuffs and in-between rings (rings worn between two fingers) are being preferred for their novelty factor.

People no longer buy jewellery for investment so the aesthetic value of the piece is important  – the design of the jewellery must be really beautiful.

Workmanship – intricate, exquisite and perfect finish will rule.  Every piece must be made well and feel good. Buyers will get particular about workmanship. Design will be not just about the way jewellery looks but also how it feels to the wearer.

She signs off saying her signature style is clean looking designs. “I love emeralds because I think the colour green is closest to nature and very therapeutic visually. My all time favourite piece is a diamond Victorian  Moulin Rouge style aquamarine neck piece I did for actress Raveena Tandon  for her wedding.
