Vibrant colours and pastels seem intrinsic to the spring/summer season. When temperatures start to drop, most of us tend to adopt moody, dark hues. Not limited to our everyday essentials, we gravitate towards winter palettes for the traditional side of our choices as well. But just because it’s winter, you needn’t be committed to a black, grey and taupe story. In fact, it’s an opportune time to inject some colour to your closet. Cue: Janhvi Kapoor who was recently photographed in a blush sari by Manish Malhotra. Want to brighten up your occasion wear wardrobe this time of the year?

Janhvi Kapoor’s sari is teamed with a crystalline blouse
Janhvi Kapoor served the not-to-be-missed sartorial statement for Umang 2023. Held in December 2023, the Mumbai Police annual event was attended by some of the biggest names in film fraternity. From Alia Bhatt to Shah Rukh Khan, it was a star-studded affair. Some of the best dressed stars, including Deepika Padukone, Kriti Sanon, Kiara Advani, Madhuri Dixit Nene and Ananya Panday, harnessed the timeless appeal of a six-yard staple. For the evening, the Dhadak actor became a celestial vision in a blush pink sari by Manish Malhotra. Crafted with featherlight tulle, her ultra-feminine staple was emblazoned with pearl and crystal work, giving the illusion of twinkling stars in the night’s sky. What made it stand out? The sleeveless blouse with a generous sprinkling of pearls and Swarovski diamonds.
Adding a pinch of drama and a dreamy aesthetic to her look was her choice of accessories: a pair of diamond stud earrings and cocktail ring. For makeup, she went with a frosted rose gold wash of eyeshadow and caramel lip colour. Kapoor finished her beauty look with a slick-back braided bun.
From its romantic colour to exquisite embellishments, Kapoor’s sari is ideal for a daytime ceremony as well as glamorous evenings. If you’d rather amp it up, consider wearing shoulder-duster earrings instead of studs. Wrap yourself with a crystal embellished shawl when the weather gets nippy. We are inching towards the soft cashmere stole with Swarovski work by Shaza to complement this Manish Malhotra sari.
