Following in the footsteps of Parineeti Chopra, who walked the ramp soon after her wedding, Sonakshi Sinha made a stunning appearance at the FDCI India Couture Week 2024, just a month after tying the knot with Zaheer Iqbal. The actress turned showstopper for designer Dolly J, showcasing the designer’s latest collection, ‘La Vie en Rose’.

Known for blending classic elegance with contemporary craftsmanship, Dolly J’s designs found their perfect muse in Sonakshi. The actress exuded ethereal charm as she graced the runway in a blush pink strapless gown, featuring a corset bodice, fully netted sleeves, and intricate floral accents.

The gown’s delicate fabric and bold structure created a visually striking ensemble that perfectly captured the essence of the collection, which featured intricate embroidery and playful floral motifs adorned on shimmering fabrics like tulle, chiffon, and silk organza, creating a dreamlike atmosphere. Delicate lace accents added a touch of romance to each silhouette, embodying the collection’s signature shimmer.

“Dolly J’s haute couture this season unfolds like a fairy tale, beginning with a nostalgic “once upon a time…” theme. Embracing timeless elegance through contemporary craftsmanship, this year’s collection explores the enduring allure of beauty across epochs, creating an escapist realm where time halts and beauty reigns supreme,” the collection note reads.
