All eyes were on Radhika Merchant this weekend, the soon-to-be bride of Anant Ambani.
Her looks from the pre-wedding festivities in Jamnagar, Gujarat, seamlessly blended international couture with the rich heritage of Indian designers.
With each outfit, Radhika paints a picture of modern sophistication intertwined with cultural reverence.
From a custom Versace gown reminiscent of New York’s architectural marvels to a vibrant Ashish Gupta fringe dress paying homage to disco culture, Radhika’s wardrobe is a celebration of diverse influences.
Her Manish Malhotra lehenga, featuring a contemporary twist with a corset-inspired choli and corded cape, exemplifies her embrace of tradition with a modern flair.
But it’s not just the attire that steals the spotlight; Radhika’s adornments are equally mesmerizing. Bedecked in stunning diamond jewels, including haathphools, a statement necklace, earrings, and a maang teeka, she radiates elegance and grace, perfectly complementing her ensembles.
One standout moment was Radhika’s ‘hastakshar ceremony’ look, where she donned a bespoke Tarun Tahiliani lehenga ensemble. Adorned with hand-painted miniature artistry and kasheedakari craftsmanship, the outfit epitomized the theme of Heritage Indian, exuding timeless beauty and cultural richness.
