A quick search on Google for 'wedding jewelry trends' fills the screen with luxurious images of beautifully decorated East Indian brides. Rich colors in hues of rust, brick, aubergine, olive green, and baby blue blend together, evoking every young girl's Persian princess fantasies.
Long dangling earrings are nearly lost in elaborate headdresses sparkling with colorful gemstones and beads. Elaborate veils add an element of mystique, taking the exquisite beauty to a whole new level. Though each bride brings her own individual taste to bear on her overall look, there are several commonalities to them all.
Every surface shimmers with jewels and metallic fabric, and kohl and henna reign. Their dresses are rarely white; rather they involve rich silks in lavender, cream, champagne, olivine, rich reds, and many other vibrant colors. Their jewels are always elaborate and include jeweled hand chains, fancy anklets and toe rings, golden armbands, gorgeous bindi jewelry upon their foreheads, any number of stackable golden bracelets, chandelier style earrings, and gorgeous lavalier necklaces.
