Zoya, a distinguished atelier under the House of Tata, hosted a grand evening celebrating its rich legacy and paying homage to its eternal muse, the Zoya Woman. The vibrant gala was hosted by Amanpreet Ahluwalia, Business Head of Zoya, who orchestrated a showcase highlighting the exquisite artistry of Zoya's creations. The event was graced by the presence of celebrated designer Gauri Khan, a long-standing friend of the House, who joined in the festivities.

"Zoya proudly stands firm in its Indian roots and cultural legacy," declared Amanpreet Ahluwalia. "Each Zoya creation seamlessly merges the richness of traditional Indian craftsmanship with a contemporary perspective, serving as a resplendent reminder to women everywhere that true beauty lies in embracing their uniqueness."

For this special evening, Zoya presented four exceptional collections, each rich with meaning and artistry, embodying the essence of the Zoya Woman—graceful, confident, and true to herself.

- **Rooted**: Drawing metaphoric inspiration from the resilience of rainforests, this collection honors the inner strength and vibrant spirit of the Zoya Woman.
- **Banaras**: Inspired by the rich heritage of the eternal city, this collection captures the cultural splendour of Banaras. Using rare materials and ancient techniques like engraving and intricate enamelling, Banaras pays homage to the city's iconic rituals and landmarks, encapsulating their mystical allure in every piece.
- **Beyond - A Boundless Journey**: This collection, inspired by the majestic Indus River, symbolizes the feminine spirit as a force of nature. It poetically narrates the myriad stages of a woman's existence through exceptional gemstones.
- **Her Becoming**: A revolutionary high jewellery collection inspired by ancient Ikat patterns, featuring unique stone cuts such as Cadillacs, trapezoids, and custom-cut baguettes. This collection celebrates the Zoya Woman's journey to self-realization, reimagining traditional silhouettes with contemporary flair while embodying modern femininity.

"I am delighted to join Zoya in celebrating its iconic collections that narrate stories from India to the world," said Gauri Khan. "The atelier continues to redefine luxury jewellery for the modern era with its collections. Whether it's a statement necklace or a delicate bracelet, every piece speaks volumes about the woman who wears it—confident, fearless, and unapologetically herself."

The evening at Taj Mansingh was an immersion into the iconic beauty of Zoya's collections, celebrating the essence of the atelier’s design heritage and elegance. The warmth and camaraderie among the guests highlighted their shared love for the exquisite artistry inherent in Zoya’s masterpieces.

At the event, Gauri Khan wore a magnificent necklace from Zoya’s ‘Her Becoming’ collection titled ‘A Radiant Revelation’. This masterpiece, crafted with mastery and elegance, features 738 diamonds and 132 diversely cut natural rubies. At its heart sits a 1.00-carat radiant-cut solitaire, magnified by vertically aligned baguettes inspired by the ancient art of Ikat weaving. This high jewellery necklace is a testament to Zoya’s expert craftsmanship, with delicate, square-set rubies and a sophisticated assembly of diamonds ensuring fabric-like fluidity that flawlessly embraces any neckline.
