Anushka Sharma decided to wear a pastel, blush-pink lehenga designed by Sabyasachi at her wedding in Italy. The intricate detailing in her lehenga consisted of Indian lotus motifs combined with floral patterns, which were embroidered by hand. Combining pink, gold, and silver, this beautiful piece was the output of 67 workers who worked together for 32 days with metal threads, pearls, silk floss, rhinestones, and beads.
Alia Bhatt looked stunning in an ivory-hued saree from the Sabyasachi bridal collection. This organza saree was hand-dyed, and gold butterflies were embroidered on the blouse. The overall tilla work with the tissue veil attached to the outfit and the chooda paired up with uncut diamonds and pearls are enough to make anyone swoon.
Manish Malhotra combined Western and traditional styles to create this beautiful outfit of Kiara Advani. She looked gorgeous wearing a rose-pink outfit with an ombre effect at the bottom. It was decorated with crystals, and she paired the attire with contrasting emerald and diamond jewellery. The designer thought to represent the couple's mutual love for Rome, and so the colour, the sequins, the matching blouse, and the golden dupatta with floral border were put together for this amazing outfit.
The elegant outfit that Athiya Shetty wore on her D-day was designed by Anamika Khanna and hand-woven by her team. It took almost 10,000 hours to complete. This pink-toned, silk-textured lehenga was decorated with delicate chikankari, zardozi, and jaal works. The actress completed her look and gave it a Western touch by wearing a silk-organza veil along with a dupatta that had closely knitted works and patterns.
Curated by Tarun Tahiliani, this attire combined both pastel pink and ivory hues, which made Rakul Preet Singh shine with sheer elegance. The detailing in the lehenga consists of floral patterns that create a three-dimensional illusion, and the Swarovski crystals in her veil look like a waterfall of flowers. The tulle sleeves with crystals and pearls, along with polki ornaments, is how the bride modernised her attire and looked ravishing.
Bollywood actress, Parineeti Chopra tied the knot with politician, Raghav Chadha in 2023. Known for his classy and elegant fashion collection, Manish Malhotra designed Parineeti's lehenga with a double dupatta, one of which acted like a veil. This pastel-champagne-hued lehenga had the groom’s name engraved in the Devanagari script. This subtle design took more than 2,000 hours, but the unique concept won thousands of hearts!
Neha Kakkar, the famous singer, chose pastel pink as her wedding colour. So, Sabyasachi designed and gifted this beautiful lehenga, which was designed intricately in zardozi and meenakari.
