Emeralds outshone diamonds this year. See why brides, designers, celebs and award winners showed them off

Are You Seeing Green Too?

First, emeralds showed up on celebrity brides. Kiara Advani wore an eye-catching multilayered necklace to her wedding in February. Next, the green gems were at swish events. Billionaire Anant Ambani flaunted his emerald-studded Patek Philippe - a watch worth the price of a luxury home in Mumbai at the opening of the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Center in March. They were all over the Oscars: Jenny Slate wore a necklace with a pearshaped Zambian emerald by Massimo Gismondi for Genoa; and Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai wore an emerald flower ring by Santi Jewels.

We even saw them on the red carpet. At Cannes this summer, Urvashi Rautela wore a crocodile neckpiece credited to TOi Jewelry, which bore a striking resemblance to Cartier's iconic 1975 diamond-and-emerald design. Alia Bhatt's gigantic cushion-cut Russian emeralds at the June Manish Malhotra show have a following of their own. Emeralds were at yet another high-profile wedding. Parineeti Chopra wore a multi-tiered necklace featuring uncut Russian and Zambian emeralds by Manish Malhotra in September. And when Isha Ambani Piramal got ready for the opening of the Jio World Plaza in Mumbai last month, she wore an emerald choker.
