The festival will be held on August 26 and 27, 2022. The online event is an all-access pass to the most coveted conversations and experiences around diamonds featuring the world’s leading jewellery influencers, industry insiders and celebrities.

The Vogue India X Natural Diamond Council Diamond Festival (The Online Edit) will feature over 30 celebrities and influencers, encapsulating the best in the business, discussing all things diamonds as they share their jewellery wisdom. 

From actor Sara Ali Khan who will spill the beans on the Gen-Z perspective on diamonds to Bridgerton fame’s Charithra Chandran taking audiences through her red carpet looks, the festival will cover an array of topics. 

The Bollywood Wives from their smash hit Netflix series - Maheep Kapoor, Bhavana Pandey, Seema Khan and Neelam Kothari will share with audiences their love for self-gifting while Valerie Messika in conversation with Diipa Khosla will showcase how to style everyday and statement diamonds with ease. International jewellery designers Jessica Mccormack, Ana Khouri and Fernando Jorge will also be a part of the star-studded line-up.

Richa Singh, Managing Director, Natural Diamond Council, India and The Middle East, said, “The past two years have redefined the way we express ourselves through jewellery and this festival brings alive that sentiment. Through this two-day virtual event, we are showcasing that natural diamonds embody slow fashion and conscious luxury, qualities which are the essence of today’s youth. There is no style icon that is as versatile, and no heirloom that is as everlasting as a natural diamond. Presenting this festival for the second time, we are here to remind our audiences that diamonds hold an inherent emotional value and are an integral part of our everyday story.”

“In its second year now, the Diamond Festival spotlights stories attached to this very important gem in our lives. Whether it is the heirlooms that make up our jewellery boxes or how we self-express using jewellery, and the rise and staying power of natural diamonds for all genders — we hear from the most prominent and exciting voices in the industry on their diamond stories,” Megha Kapoor, Head of Editorial Content, Vogue India said.
