Diwali has always been one of the most colorful festivals of the year, with people donning their best clothes and jewellery to celebrate this festival of lights. However, over the years we have seen that Monochromes are becoming a fashion statement. In fact, this Diwali season has witnessed a number of our celebrities pull off monochrome outfits at various events. An interesting trend that has been emerging from Bollywood is the mingling of Indian tradition with Western fashion. This trend was most prominently seen in Diwali parties and red became the color of choice for many actresses. Lakshmi Manchu seemed to be following the trend as well, She adorns herself with a precious gemstone necklace by Vasundhara jewelers. Symbols have always been important in our cultures but have become even more so with the advent of communication. Symbols and icons are used to convey a message in less time and the usage of signs can be traced back to the Egyptian hieroglyphics. The necklace with a precious gemstone is worn by women as an ornament to show off their status as well as wealth.
