What a fun thread!
Gold- Calgaro with the Soliel Collection- the way that shimmers in the sun! Coomi was a very very close 2nd Place, but since the voting was for 'gold' I decided those gorgeous Citrines were cheating!
Platinum: Tom Munsteiner (love love love his stones!)
Silver- didn't like much at all
Diamonds: La Reina Collection- oxidized titanium and diamond Rose Brooch with Canary centre stone
Natural Color- Todd Reed - always wearable!
Gemstones- Such a toughie!! the Di Modelo Green Tourmaline Cab ring in Rose Gold- OOOOHHHH.
Pearls- Gotta go with Yvel !!
Bridal- boring category, but Katherine James. If you're gonna wear it for life, it should be a classic
Haute Couture: Kuwayama!!!! How whimsical and gorgeous is that? The attention to detail and overall configuration of the piece makes it larger than life, and definitely Haute
Newcomers: Hmmm- Eh.

Ugliest design, personally, I have 2. In the Bridal Collection- Paul Morelli
and in Newcomers- SHO Design
