The Mangalsutra design has emerged to become one of the most sought-after pieces of bridal jewellery. Despite the modern age, we are successfully stepping into, there are aspects of our culture that remain intact and just as relevant.
The Mangalsutra is one of the most precious and treasured pieces of jewellery for any Indian bride. The origins of the Mangalsutra Design date back to the 6th Century AD.
Initially, it was a piece of Yellow-colored thread worn by the new bride, to keep away the evil spirits and other men. Essentially it signifies, the marital status of the woman and enhances her status in society.
As for the Mangalsutra designs, we have come a long way from the regular Gold and Black beads threaded together.

Don’t we simply love the pendant Mangalsutra Design adorned by our own ‘Desi Girl’ Priyanka Chopra? The star’s every move, every attire, every function, and every single piece of jewellery worn made it to the headlines.
Likewise, her Mangalsutra Design was much covered by both the Indian and the international press. It was also one of those rare times when the Indian tradition with regard to jewellery was placed on the global map.
However, coming back to Priyanka Chopra’s much-focused Mangalsutra, the design comprised of regular black and gold beads threaded together, except it is also composed of a beautiful cluster of Diamond Pendant right at the centre of the necklace. This was a teardrop surrounded by three circular diamond arrangements.
The Zodiac Sign Mangalsutra Design Idea
Another latest Mangalsutra Design idea is the infusion of your Zodiac sign-shaped pattern within the arrangement of your sacred necklace. We get inspiration from the beautiful Mangalsutra Design that was adorned by the fashionable Sonam Kapoor on her wedding day.
The design comprised of her’s and Anand’s zodiac signs on either side of the necklace with a single solitaire diamond in the centre of the arrangement. The overall appearance was beautiful, quirky, and oh-so chic. But, this is Sonam Kapoor we are talking about, and trendsetting is exactly what she does best.
The Floral Design Mangalsutra Design Idea
This is a pretty design much loved by the millennial bride, where the simplicity of the pattern is what makes it so adorable. The Floral design of Mangalsutra is unique, modern, and trendy at the same time.
The design comprises a floral arrangement of the Black beads of the mangal sutra arranged in a floral pattern and fixed right at the centre of a gold chain.
This gives a rather youthful revamping of the traditional jewellery while maintaining the sacredness of the jewellery in place.
The best part about this gold mangal sutra with a floral design is that it can be worn with both Indian and Western outfits with equal ease.
The Multi-Flower Manglasutra Design idea
This is a wonderful version of the traditional Mangalsutra design idea, where a central part is an exceptional pattern comprising an arrangement of flowers. This design is delicate, beautiful and so unique.
The Mangalsutra design with a multi-flower pattern comprises a thin Golden curve on which a couple of flower patterns in Diamond and Gold are encrusted.
The rest of the design is the regular Black and Gold beads threaded together to offer a segment of the much-wanted tradition one expects from a mangal sutra.

We simply love the short Mangalsutra Design idea that has been a hot favourite for most millennial brides. This comprises a simple gold chain into which interesting patterns of diamond and black beads are infused.
The resulting design is rather a remarkable pattern that offers a modern vibe, that can be worn among your ethnic and western wear as well. We love the sophistication and elegance this minimal design offers to the wearer.
The Leaf-style Long Mangalsutra Designs idea
Sometimes, we simply love the romance of the leaf’s structure and pattern, as it does more for us compared to the much-popular floral patterns.
The design doubles up as both the mangal sutra and the necklace as well and manages to serve both purposes with equal ease.
As for the design itself, it comprises regular Black beads that have been threaded in a thin bar of gold, with the central leaf design to steal the show.
This central portion comprises a delicate Gold curve joining together with the leaves design emerging from it. Each of these leaves is Diamond encrusted and offers the gleaming one expects.
The Multi-circle Mangalsutra Design Idea
The ‘tri-circle’ Diamond structure infused within the regular Mangalsutra beads makes for a rather mysterious pattern. This is perfect for the modern woman, as she manages to shift effortlessly across the various roles she plays in society.
The multi-circle pattern is rather eye-catching and very beautiful and is more on the traditional design aspect. However, it makes for the perfect jewellery piece the Indian woman would love to flaunt.
The Royal Mangalsutra design idea
This is perfect for the ‘Lady Boss’ girl, who knows how to ‘command’ the attention she so deserves. The Royal Mangalsutra Design is a ‘Bengali’ inspired design idea and has been crafted by none other than the ace designer himself, Sabyasachi.
These are made from un-cut diamonds and usually comprise a ‘Tiger’ or Lion’s head adorned with coloured gemstones. A couple of precious stones like Emerald, Ruby, Diamonds, and real Pearls make for attention-arresting designs that are sure to become heirloom pieces.

Speaking of precious stones, we simply love this Mangalsutra Design trend that has been creating waves in the trend circles.
This comprises Black and Gold beads that have been threaded together, except a single coloured Gemstone makes for the perfect attention-grabbing design.
This singular Gemstone at the centre of the necklace can be your favourite birthstone, your favourite coloured stone, or simply your Gem of choice.
Emerald, Ruby, Sapphire, and other such gemstones are perfect for this design. You can club this with any attire, for any occasion, and wear it for any event.

The Evil Eye Mangalsutra Design Idea
Why not get back to the roots of the sacred thread of protection that the Mangalsutra Design is intended to offer? We recommend the all-cool ‘Evil Eye’ pattern infused with the Black and Gold beads threaded together.
This not only makes for the perfect style statement but also ensures that you rid yourself of the Evil negative energies that can surround you on your wedding day.
Also, the millennial bride loves all things simple yet ‘statement’, so you could also opt for the plain Gold chain, with Black beads placed well-spaced within the chain along with the Evil Eye locket design in the centre.
The Bracelet Mangalsutra Design idea
As we are in the current times of fashion-forward trends, there= are interesting ways to wear your Mangalsutra. And who says it can only be worn around your neck? Why not make it into a chic-looking bracelet, that you can simply wear around your wrists instead?
This is my personal favourite and makes for the perfect statement piece, that can be easily worn for any outing when you are not exactly in the mood for a necklace-style mangal sutra.
Conclusion for Mangalsutra Design
The Mangalsutra is a piece of sacred jewellery that is worn by most Indian women. This jewellery signifies and dignifies the holy bond of matrimony. The mangal sutra is not a fashionable piece of jewellery but can be worn fashionably.
Now that the Indian woman is walking across the various paths of society, it is high time her jewellery ‘speaks for her. So, why not allow the most precious piece of her bridal identity to take a modern stand as well?
