ARE YOU A 2022 BRIDE?

This New Year, brides will have a glitzy cocktail of traditional and modern choices to flaunt. A close look at bridal jewellery choices for 202

 

 

Brides of 2022 are going to shine in their own light! Individuality will be the buzzword as we watch brides walk down the aisle or walk up to the decorated stage. Personal tastes and preferences will rule the jewellery scene as far as the new brides are concerned. Of course, they will take a few tips from the elders in the family, browse hundreds of magazines and keep track of their fashion gurus on Instagram. But when it comes to choosing their big day look, she is going to have the final say.

 

It means a cocktail of traditional and modern, of temple jewellery finding a pair in a diamond wedding set, or platinum rubbing shoulders with a family heirloom choker, or glass bangles moving in with their gold versions. The 2022 bride’s jewellery box is going to be a mix of diverse styles and fashion, highlighting her choice and her decisions.

 

 

As per the jewellery trend forecast, headgears and hair ornaments will be more prominent, a statement neckpiece will be combined with a long chain for the impact, and on the wrist, there will be stacks of bangles and it will be bigger the better for rings.

 

 

OLD & NEW AGE

 

Traditional, yes but new-age too will be the mantra for brides as they mull over thick antique chokers studded with red stones, and delicate diamond rings, or pick a layered necklace and an eye-catching cuff bracelet with intricate design.

 

Many brides would like to go for an affordable version of the Katrina Kaif look as the uncut diamond jewellery set in gold that she wore on her wedding day is still the talk of the town. How about an elegant necklace studded with uncut diamonds, ruby and emerald? It will be a perfect match whether the bride’s attire is red or green or pastel, and this combination is a picture of unparalleled elegance and is sure to set a trend on its own. Wear it with a saree, lehenga or gown, and the effect will always be dazzling.

 

CELEBRITY-INSPIRED

Celebrities have always been the inspiration for brides to try varied styles for their own big day. Still, they want their ensemble to have their unique stamp too. So, they will add more colour to their gold with emerald or ruby necklaces or wear red bangles or tiered jhumkas adorned with green stones. These brides of 2022 are sure to bring in a scoop of modern elements to traditional ornaments too. The vintage coin necklace would adopt a modern avatar as a short necklace with colourful stones, or tweak grandmother’s long chain of beads into a belt. Watch out for unique combinations and design experiments.

 

ACCESSORIES TOO

Headgears and hair accessories are sure to be on the list of ornaments for the wedding, predict stylists and fashionistas. Diamond or gold maang tikas are the latest favourite of celebrity brides and brides-to-be, and they are known to complete the look even if the attire is western. Those who prefer to own wearable jewellery can choose a chain with an elegant pendant to be used as a tika or hair accessory.

 

It is her big day, and her choice and style will make the wedding one of a kind. Like any celebrity, she could create a trend too.
