Make a style statement

New Delhi, Sep 30 (IANSlife) Traditional dressing is never complete without beautiful jewellery. And festivals are the time when traditional dressing is the most preferred. Yash Agarwal, Creative Director, Birdhichand Ghanshyamdas Jaipur suggests some statement pieces to look for when you're out jewellery-shopping.

* Statement Earrings

Intricately designed earrings instantly add a character to an attire. Jhumar-style earrings, chandbalis and multi-layered jhumkas create a minimalistic yet chic look when paired with bold coloured outfits.

* Multi-Layered Necklace

Multi-layered necklaces are a big trend this festival season. Accessorise a simple lehenga or a beautiful organza saree with these statement pieces to create a majestic look for the evenings.

* Choker

While traditional wear can be coupled with polki or kundan jewellery, opting for traditional or a fusion-styled choker can add an extra edge to your look.

* Cocktail Ring

Rings larger than normal rings are called cocktail ring and have been in style for some time now. While all types of cocktail rings can be eye-catching, exquisitely crafted emeralds, diamonds, sapphires or rubies are big this season.

* Headgear

To add a dramatic element and feminine appeal to your ethnic look, opt for a traditional headgear such as a matha patti or a maang teeka. This piece of jewellery is very versatile and can be transformed into a neckpiece, a brooch or a pendant.

* Kamarbandh

A kamarbandh or a waist belt is a versatile jewellery item, which can enhance the elegance of a simple lehenga or a skirt manifold.
