Very clearly stated by Sabyasachi Mukherjee himself that saree is not just a fashion piece for him but a story to be told. And the sarees by the designer not only create a buzz in the fashion world but also on social media and the celeb world. This time we mention Sabyasachi for ringing a bell at the Cannes Film Festival where we can see Deepika adding to her majestic look in a striped blingy saree.
Let’s see how she made our jaws drop gracing the red carpet in an Indian shimmery attire!
1. The Gorgeous Gold & Black Sequin Saree
Hooking netizens was the ravishing and majestic blingy Sabyasachi saree in a mix of a dark hue and beige. This saree act on the Day 1 of the festival left everyone speechless as she flaunted a glam as well as retro look like a yesteryear actress. It was also heard that the look was the replica of a character from her own movie “Om Shanti Om”. Looks like the ace couturier Sabyasachi Mukherjee loves celebrating heritage Indian craft and has always talked about it from a modern lens. Apart from the hard-core Indian culture and tradition, the actress’s saree also featured block prints and hand-embroidered stripes.
2. The Saree Inspiration- The Tiger
Well, the designer always fascinates us, but we wonder where he gets his ideas and innovation from? The designer claims that the black saree is inspired by the stripes and shades of the skin of the royal Bengal Tiger. The block printed and hand-embroidered sequinned saree has much more to it than just design, ethnicity, and style. The saree speaks of culture, language, traditions, feminism and sexuality too. Overall, we feel that this saree must have a global place and stage as grand as the Cannes festival.
3. The Headband Raising The Style Quotient
The cherry on the cake or the show-stealer is undoubtedly the headband or the maatha patti headpiece if we can traditionally call it so. Another classic piece to pay homage to Indian way of dressing and tradition is Deepika’s splendid chandelier earrings. These accessory details speak about showcasing a conventional ensemble in an unconventional way and she definitely looks divine achieving the same. The jewellery she opted for is from the designer’s Aakash Tara Collection.
4. Retro Make-up & Hair-do
The star’s make-up and hairdo gave us major retro vibes. She opted for bold make-up including very dark and defined eyes. Yes, the dramatic winged eyeliner was the major highlight of her retro appeal and style statement. Speaking of Dips’ hairdo, it was a tie-bun that was done immaculately and was accessorised with a golden hairband. Many referred to her appearance as a ‘Julia Fox’ make-up stint.
Bringing in Indian traditions to Cannes is no cakewalk and our stars and ace designers just do it efficiently with Sabyasachi Saree Collections. Sabyasachi offered Deepika six-yard of steamy elegance in form of the golden striped blingy saree. Well, we are loving the pictures that are flooding and in light of the same, we also mention KALKI that is curating similar sarees that speaks of culture, tradition and Indian craftsmanship.
