Her looks from the pre-wedding festivities in Jamnagar, Gujarat, seamlessly blended international couture with the rich heritage of Indian designers.

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.
