The ensemble featured a halter-neck kurta in a serene aqua-blue shade, adorned with intricate golden embroidery and delicate motifs that added an air of luxury. The shimmering zari work on the kurta gave it a timeless elegance, and the matching churidar pants and dupatta, with gold-embellished borders draped over one shoulder, completed the look with finesse.

This outfit, designed by the legendary couturier holds deep significance, especially in light of his recent passing. Rohit Bal, who was known for his magnificent embroidery and fusion of modern and traditional styles, passed away on November 1. He was 63 years old. Notably, his final collection was showcased at Lakme Fashion Week, where Ananya had walked the runway as his showstopper, marking an emotional moment in fashion history.

Ananya kept her accessories minimal to let the outfit shine. She opted for a striking pair of golden statement earrings that perfectly complemented the intricate embroidery of the kurta. Her makeup featured a nude eyeshadow base, winged eyeliner, and mascara-coated lashes, along with defined brows, a hint of blush, and a touch of highlighter. A nude lipstick completed her look, adding a soft glow that radiated elegance. Ananya’s hair, styled in loose waves with a middle part, framed her face beautifully, while a delicate bindi provided the finishing touch to her graceful attire.

Ananya Panday’s choice of outfit not only honoured her mother’s cherished piece but also paid homage to the legacy of one of India’s most iconic designers.
