Hyderabad Jewellery Buyers Shift Toward Versatile, Individual Designs
Fewer Pieces, More Personality: How Jewellery Buying is Changing Strap · deccanchronicle.com

Jewellery shopping in Hyderabad is changing.

Many younger buyers now care more about design and personal style than only the value of gold.

They often prefer one special piece instead of wearing many pieces at once.

They also want jewellery that can be worn in different ways.

For example, the same item might work with jeans or with a saree.

Designer Sumit Sawhney says jewellery should be comfortable and useful beyond weddings.

His brand uses materials such as sterling silver, 22-karat gold and gemstones.

Apala by Sumit will present its new collection in Hyderabad on September 23 and 24.
