PIX: Amrita, Mahima, Sonal strut in style!
Here's a look at the best catwalk moments from Day Three of India International Jewellery Week.
More shimmer, shine and glamour lit up the runway as India International Jewellery Week continued into its third day on August 1.
Fabulous outfits, set off by splendid jewels and the occasional famous face had the audience spellbound. Here's how it all went down.
Opening things was GIA India with their heavyduty collection -- seen here is model Anchal Kumar wearing both a choker and three-strand necklace, the former set off by an emerald solitaire and the latter by rubies. The chandelier earrings match both.
Eye-catching twirls
Next we have this yellow and white-gold twirling pendant encrusted with diamonds, teamed with clusters.
Uncut elegance
Large uncut polki diamonds make for an amazing traditional necklace and maang tikka.
Ethnic empress
On second was the talent of Dipti Amisha, commencing with Shonal Rawat in ethnic jewellery right from her ring to that unique armlet.
Jhumka jazz
Deepti Gujral looks like a million dollars in jhumka earrings, a cutwork disc necklace and maang tikka.
Mix and match
The bronze hue adorning the flower on the forehead is in contrast with the green and diamond sparkle of the rest of this Dipti Amisha set.
Chunky chic
Candice Pinto makes an entrance in chunky yellow gold and maroon for Jewels Emporium.
Demure and delicate
Taking a far more delicate turn, however, Anchal follows up in this dainty mix of demure design.
Aqua influence
Aqua tones then set the mood in blue and green strands, setting off a beautiful diamond necklace, bracelet and earrings.
Classic meets contemporary
YS 18 decided to offer a mix of the classic and contemporary by teaming dewdrop earrings with a multi-hued dotted strand necklace.
Old world glamour
Alesia Raut channels old-world glamour in an emerald and ice set -- and what gigantic emeralds they are too!
Dramatic droplets
We see Deepti once more, showing off an array of dramatic scarlet dewdrops.
Celeb quotient
Actress Sonal Chauhan does the showstopping honours for YS 18 in eye-popping earrings and a garland neckpiece.
Pebbled and pretty
Sawansukha Jewellers Pvt Ltd made their mark starting with this pebbled pattern set against stunning diamonds.
Ravishing rows
Anchal is all smiles as she models rows of diamonds set against a green emerald wreath design.
Star with bling
Actress Mahima Chaudhary steps out in a heavy one-sided neckpiece, with matching cocktail ring, bracelet and earrings.
Timeless appeal
That goes for both Zeenat Aman and what she's wearing -- it takes a timeless beauty to set off timeless jewellery!
Less is more
Agni Jewels Pvt. Ltd obviously believe in the adage 'less is more' -- Alesia Raut is most stylish in her delicate danglers and rings.
Set it off right
Actress Zoa Morani used both a sexy outfit and flowers in her hair to set off her jewellery.
Back to nature
Next up was Amrita Rao in this chunky, colourful dragonfly choker and solitaire studs.
Pearly gal
And actress-singer Shibani Dandekar was also in the Agni line-up, looking lovely in pale pink and strings of pearls.
Fuschia flourish
Polkis and a mesmerising solitaire are complemented by hints of sparkling fuschia on this piece from Manubhai Gems Pvt. Ltd.
Bedecked beauty
Scallops upon scallops of diamonds surround teardop rubies on this extravagant set.
Opulence personified
Kolkata beauty Bidita Bag was Manubhai's showstopper, adorned in bridal finery -- talk about making an opulent statement!
Inimitable ice
Seen here is Alesia Raut kicking off the Dwarkadas Chandumal Diamonds collection with mesh earrings and a wavy bracelet and cocktail ring.
Filigree fantasy
This intricate filigree fantasy can set off anything from a cocktail dress to a sari.
Perfect match
It's hard to tell where this sari ends and necklace begins, they're so perfectly matched.
Fit for a queen
And Zareen Khan takes the lead as showstopper for Dwarkadas Chandumal, literally dripping diamonds. This was her second turn at the IIJW -- we wonder if there'll be a third!
