Diamonds are forever
Trust Bollywood to add bling to any fashion show. We bring you all that glittered at the recently concluded India International Jewellery Week 2012.
With over 50 designers, 30 shows, 20 brands and a bevy of Bollywood beauties walking the ramp, it was sparkle and shimmer all the way at Mumbai’s Grand Hyatt. If the creations of designers like Vikram Phadnis, Anamika Khanna, Swapnil Shinde, Barkha and Sonal, Mohini, Alka Yagnik, Babita Malkani, Pria Kataria Puri, Neeta Lulla, Pallavi Jaipur, Lina Tipnis and Madhurima Nigam were breathtaking, the personalities sporting these gems were equally mesmerising.

Having started the week with Zeenat Aman decked in emeralds and Juhi Chawla dripping in diamonds, it only got better with Sonali Bendre, Susmita Sen, Neha Dhupia, Nargis Fakhri, Yamini Gautam, Bipasha Basu, walking for select brands.
