Ananya Panday’s look was a meeting point between two eras. Styled by Priyanka Kapadia Badani, she paired a vintage Jacques Fath couture corset from 1948 with a lace sari by Manish Malhotra, a tribute to Maharani Gayatri Devi.

The corset is intricately hand-embroidered with pearls and metallic threads, with an off-the-shoulder neckline and delicate boning that sculpts the silhouette. The cape style drape of the saree falls elegantly from the shoulders, revealing a backless construction. A large emerald brooch secures the cape around the neck, functioning as both a jewel and a structural element.
The sari’s scalloped edges and faint sheen add texture, while the sheer sheerness of the fabric contrasts with the structured base of the corset. Accessories include diamond and pearl earrings, stacked emerald rings, and a gold wristwatch with a thin bracelet.
