As the year draws to a close, men’s fashion takes a bold step into elevated sophistication. From tailored work-wear to polished leather accessories, the end of the year invites men to redefine their fashion narrative, merging timeless elegance with modern flair, and stepping into the new year with confidence and panache. To further elevate their style for various occasions, men can embrace the sophistication and timelessness of platinum jewellery by Men of Platinum. Be it formal events, corporate parties, casual gatherings with friends and families or even New Year’s Eve galas, Men of Platinum’s latest range of platinum jewellery is ideal to add a touch of subtle glam, refinement and sophistication to the year-end celebrations.

Men of Platinum’s latest range boasts a design language that is both unique and meaningful. Billions of years ago, a meteorite crash left behind remnants of this stunning white metal, and it has since been a symbol of what is truly rare and precious. Platinum never loses its naturally white sheen, just like the inimitable spirit of platinum men who forge their own path and aren’t afraid to create an exclusive style statement. Platinum’s story of origin too is as unique as the men that favour it. Designed to endure, it’s a metal that stays solid and strong despite years of wear and tear. Thus, never losing its form along the way. With a rare promise of 95% purity, platinum jewellery delivers the finest that the metal has to offer in every form. Each exquisite piece in this collection embodies the strength and essence of these rare men of character.

Follow this lookbook by Men of Platinum for some tips on how to ace your year-end style game with panache!

India Doesn’t Have Any Jewellery Brands; They Are Marketplaces Masquerading As Brands

Published

Amit Kumar, CEO & Co-founder, QWEEN, speaking to JewelBuzz, said jewellery brands are actually “marketplaces masquerading as brands.” QWEEN disrupts the fragmented diamond industry by replacing “aggregator” models with a 100% natural, Mine-to-Market approach. By sourcing exclusively from Rosy Blue, they maintain a closed-loop supply chain that guarantees a documented, audited journey for every stone. Moving beyond marketing jargon, QWEEN prioritises transparency and ethical integrity through Kimberley Process compliance, transforming the intimidating traditional buying process into a confident, self-discovery experience for the modern woman.

You’ve made a bold claim that most Indian jewellery brands are actually “marketplaces masquerading as brands.” What do you mean by that?

For decades, the industry has operated on an illusion. Most retailers act like aggregators—they source diamonds from a vast web of multiple vendors in various batches. Much like a restaurant sourcing ingredients from different suppliers to save costs, these jewellers prioritise efficiency over consistency. The result is a fragmented supply chain where even the jeweller often cannot tell you the true origin of the stones they are selling. We felt modern luxury deserved better than that ambiguity.

QWEEN calls itself India’s first “100% natural, Mine-to-Market” brand. How does your sourcing model actually differ from the norm?

We chose a path that is intentionally harder and slower. Instead of juggling multiple vendors, we source every single diamond from one revered origin: Rosy Blue. With over 63 years of heritage, they aren’t just a supplier; they are our strategic supply-chain investors. Because they are sightholders with direct access to ethically sourced rough diamonds, we have a documented, audited chain of custody. We don’t just trace a diamond to a country; we trace it through its entire journey.

Ethical sourcing is a popular buzzword. How do you move beyond “marketing narratives” to provide verifiable proof to your customers?

We believe trust is built through structural integrity, not just slogans. Every diamond at QWEEN is Kimberley Process compliant, meaning it is verifiably conflict-free by global standards. Because we don’t deal in “mixed batches,” there is zero room for inconsistency. We intend to prove this transparency directly to our customers within our retail stores, showing them the verifiable truth behind their purchase.

You often mention moving away from “jargon and intimidation” in the buying process. What does the “self-discovery” experience look like for a woman shopping at QWEEN?

Historically, buying diamonds has felt transactional or even intimidating. We want to change that. When a woman understands exactly where her diamond came from, who worked on it, and why it’s graded a certain way, the purchase transforms. It’s no longer about pressure; it’s about ownership and confidence. We want our customers to connect the diamond’s journey to their own identity and values.

What is next for QWEEN, and where can customers experience this new model of luxury?

 Our philosophy is coming to life in our upcoming experiential stores in Bangalore and Delhi. These won’t just be retail spaces; they are environments designed for clarity and intent. We aren’t building this brand on the size of our assortment, but on the courage to do things differently.
