Nita Ambani & Radhika Merchant Shine in Stunning Sarees at Manish Malhotra’s Diwali Bash
On October 14, Bollywood designer Manish Malhotra hosted a spectacular Diwali celebration at his Mumbai residence, attracting celebrities and fashion icons. Among the star-studded attendees, Nita Ambani and Radhika Merchant turned heads with their elegant ethnic ensembles.
Nita Ambani: Silver Sequin Sophistication
Manish Malhotra personally styled Nita Ambani for the festivities, dressing her in a luminous silver sequin saree from his signature collection. Featuring chevron detailing and a meticulously structured drape, the saree reflects modern sophistication infused with heritage couture. Draped traditionally with the pallu falling gracefully off her shoulder, she paired it with a matching sequin blouse with a sleeveless design and U-neckline.
Accessories completed her luxury look: rare heart-shaped Colombian emerald earrings, an emerald and diamond bracelet, and a special edition miniature Hermès Birkin from the High Jewellery collection, reportedly the most expensive Hermès bag in the world.
For hair and makeup, Nita chose a side-parted chignon bun, feathered brows, kohl-lined eyes, mascara-laden lashes, blushed cheeks, shimmery eyeshadow, and a glossy fuchsia lip, exuding festive glamour.
Radhika Merchant: Ivory Elegance
Radhika Merchant opted for an ivory chiffon saree adorned with delicate sequin embellishments and silver threadwork. She paired it with a sleeveless blouse featuring a plunging neckline, reflecting a perfect blend of classic and modern style.
Her accessories included diamond earrings, a sparkling necklace, matching bracelets, and a silver embellished bucket bag. Radhika’s hair was styled in side-parted, loose blowout waves, and her makeup featured blushed cheeks, a soft pink lip, and feathered brows, completing a radiant ethnic look.
Both women showcased how luxury couture and ethnic fashion can combine seamlessly for festive occasions, setting the style bar high for Diwali celebrations.
