Aditi Rao Hydari never disappoints when it comes to fashion.
Whether you’re drawn to the sparkle of lab-grown diamonds or the sustainability of re-purposed fashion, this Diwali is all about finding balance
As Diwali approaches, the excitement of dressing up and embracing festive fashion is in full swing. Whether you’re looking to make a bold statement or subtly radiate elegance, the right styling choices can transform your festive look. Two distinct approaches, as shared by experts from Solitario Lab-Grown Diamonds and Virgio, offer fresh perspectives on how to elevate your Diwali wardrobe with ethical, sustainable, and versatile options.
The design team at Solitario Lab-Grown Diamonds believes that jewelry is the key to unlocking festive glamour. “At Solitario, we believe jewelry brings out the charm of any festive look, adding that essential touch of glamour and elegance,” says their team. From bold necklaces to statement earrings, their pieces are crafted to complement both traditional and modern outfits seamlessly.
The versatility of their diamonds allows for endless styling possibilities—layer delicate bracelets for a subtle yet sophisticated vibe or stack rings to add a personal touch. “Style these jewels with rich fabrics, bold colors, and elegant silhouettes that capture the festive spirit,” the Solitario team suggests. Their collection, featuring everything from colored diamonds to larger, sparkling stones, ensures that each piece not only enhances your festive outfit but also serves as a form of self-expression.
For those who want to mix high fashion with sustainability, Mohita Rastogi, Design Head, Virgio, offers a different but equally compelling approach. With the constant influx of fashion trends, Diwali shopping can become overwhelming, especially for fashion-forward consumers. “The festive season can be a source of stress for fashion enthusiasts, especially with the ever-changing trends and styles,” says Rastogi. To counter this, Virgio advocates for re-inventing and repurposing your wardrobe. Instead of indulging in excessive shopping, Rastogi encourages a more mindful approach by curating looks from what you already own.
“At Virgio, we believe this season is an opportunity to re-invent, repurpose, and recycle our wardrobe,” adds Rastogi. Virgio’s sustainable fashion line incorporates versatile pieces that work for both festive and Western occasions. With a commitment to sustainability, their garments are made using natural, recycled, or deadstock fabrics, which reduce waste and minimize environmental impact. By choosing versatile, sustainable pieces, you can create new looks without contributing to fashion excess.
When it comes to styling, Rastogi advises incorporating classic pieces that feel fresh and exciting. “Breaking down older combinations through color blocking or pairing prints with classic tones can be a great way to get newer looks,” she suggests. Accessories also play a crucial role in completing your festive ensemble—whether you want to dress up or tone down your outfit, the right accessories can make all the difference.
In conclusion, whether you’re drawn to the sparkle of lab-grown diamonds or the sustainability of re-purposed fashion, this Diwali is all about finding balance. By combining timeless jewelry with versatile clothing pieces, you can create a festive look that is both stylish and meaningful. From the brilliance of ethically sourced diamonds to the thoughtful repurposing of your wardrobe, these tips from Solitario and Virgio will help you shine brighter this festive season.
