Here's a look at the best catwalk moments from Day Two of India International Jewellery Week.

Diamonds are a girl's best friend -- also gold, platinum, emeralds, sapphires...

And we got to see all of it on the second day of the IIJW, but that's not all that shone on the ramp! Check out the showings and celebs who helped make them special.

First up we have the funky, fabric-embellished pieces of Rosily Paul, whose collection was all about youth and vibrancy. Seen here is a matching set of stone and gold danglers and pendant.

A thing for purple
