Ananya Pandey
The Gen-Z style icon of Bollywood, Ananya Panday, serves significant festive inspiration in a gorgeous aqua blue lehenga and offers a stylish and vibrant feel that is appropriate for Diwali celebrations. This appearance is an excellent combination of traditional Silhouette and modern styling, which is perfect to add to the modern festive closet.
The outfit is a loud aqua blue, slightly motif, skirt with a bralette-shaped choli heavily adorned with detail. The blouse has multiple colored embroidery and mirror work on fine straps which immediately upgrades the traditional image with a new touch of modernity. The look is transformed by a sheer matching dupatta with a statement border.
The centerpiece is a statement Kundan choker necklace which is multi colored red and emerald, as it is the center of all the jewellery in the outfit offering a contrast to the chilled toned outfit. Perfect dewy foundation, soft sculpted with cheeks, brows, and perfectly outlined eyes, and a natural nude lip-perfect to a radiant festive look. Easy glamour high middle-length waves, which are bouncy and open.
Alia Bhatt
Alia Bhatt is the queen of grace and subtle festive dressing during Diwali and chose a tranquil appearance that embraces the pastel trend. The ensemble, likely by Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla, is a unique hybrid of a loose, sheer pink Chikankari short kurta (with subtle embroidery of white) paired with a structured and draped mint green saree- skirt. This non-traditional combination is what makes the look both comfy and fashionable.
In order to accessorize, Alia opted to be more simple, with only one pearl and gold choker necklace, ensuring the beautiful fabric remains the star. Her glam is equally soft with a dewy foundation, a rosy glossy lip and a small touch of romance with fresh flowers (gajra) stuck in her low ponytail. This appearance is an ideal representation of the Quiet Luxury ethnic clothing that establishes a casual and upscale style in small party events.
Samantha Ruth Prabhu
Samantha Ruth Prabhu is wearing a simple and beautiful olive green outfit, which balances in the traditional appeal with the minimalistic modernity perfectly to wear at Diwali. The outfit features a full-sleeved, loose-fitting Anarkali-style kurta (long ethnic dress) in a fashionable, organic olive shade that is a trending color among festive clothes and replaces traditional brights. The kurta has a nice gold or subtle white threadwork with little embroidery that is focused on the V-neckline, without being overwhelming. The silhouette is relaxed and cozy, and a matching dupatta draped over one shoulder, perhaps with an embroidered or woven pattern of fineness in the border.
For jewellery, Samantha is rather modest, as the only luxurious feature she uses is a single ring that is elegant, and the richness of the cloth and the color itself are the focus. Her make-up is kept natural and fresh; nude lips, a light foundation to make her skin glow, and maybe a little kohl liner to make the eyes look defined. Her hair is made in natural and loose curls that are flowing down her back, and this, again, adds to the relaxed but elegant atmosphere that the outfit creates. The appearance is perfect when one wants to be in an elegant, casual but party outfits during Diwali.
Shraddha Kapoor
Bollywood diva Shraddha Kapoor gives a masterclass on the understated festive glamour, perfectly captured in a ivory Anarkali suit. The outfit is a full-sleeved, floor-length Anarkali, which stood out because of its royal style. Made up of some sort of flowing, possibly silk or georgette, material, the real feature here is the fine gold embroidery. The plain traditional work is uplifted by pure, but complementary dupatta having large gold work especially on the shoulder area where a detailed work can be seen.
The overall styling leans towards the side of silent luxury and classic elegance. Her jewellery is minimal, with only one or two piece of jewellery and this is an elegant gold or Kundan necklace that is an eye catching but not overpowering to the calm colour palette. The decision to avoid the use of big earrings or excessive bangles in the styling puts the appearance clean and contemporary.
To make herself look natural, Shraddha uses a fresh, dew look on the base, soft kohl in the eyes and a subdued lip colour, and has made sure that her natural glow is the centre of attention, a much desired natural glow appearance. She has her hair styled in soft, natural waves and this is what will complete an outfit that is not only traditional Diwali puja but it is also the best way to look presently celebrity-inspired festive feature. The appearance is the best thing one can give to those readers who want to be inspired when it comes to finding elegant, comfortable, and sophisticated ethnic wear.
Rashmika Mandanna
Rashmika Mandanna sets a gorgeous festive mood perfect for Diwali in this beautiful and royal outfit. This outfit revolves around a full-length, flowing ivory Anarkali suit with a traditional and subtly decorated sweetheart neckline. The simple gold frame on hem adds a touch of necessary.
The appearance is adorned with heavy Indian traditional jewels. She has big and grandiose Kundan and pearl drop earrings with a touch of green stone work that perfectly matches the dupatta. She wears a mixture of fine bangles and a statement bracelet on her wrists, and has a big ring on her finger. The actress has got embellished gold juttis on her feet, which keep the shoes traditional and festive. Beauty look is maintained fresh and radiant: soft, defined eyes and a nude-gloss lip, voluminous and side-swept hair. It is a top choice as this appearance is not too minimalist modernity and traditionally festive at the same time.
