Rani Mukerji Turns Heads in a Grey Metallic Saree at Sabyasachi's Diwali Event in New York
Whether in traditional dress or modern fashion, Rani Mukerji knows how to turn heads with her own style. This time the actress appeared in a grey metallic saree at Sabyasachi Mukherjee's Diwali event in New York. Her look carried elegance, with a touch of modernity.
Sabyasachi's Diwali reception was held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Rani attended it. The event was therefore not only a festive occasion but also a glimpse of fashion.
Actor Kal Penn shared several photos from the event on Instagram. In the photos, Rani was seen posing with Kal Penn and Sabyasachi. It was through those photos that her look caught everyone's attention.
That day Rani wore a grey saree with a satin-like sheen. In the smooth lustre of the fabric and the graceful arrangement of its pleats, the familiar six-yard saree carried a touch of modernity.
The actress chose a sleeveless blouse to match the saree. The blouse's deep V-shaped neckline added a bold dimension to her look, creating a different balance with the elegance of the traditional saree.
Rani also kept surprises in her choice of accessories alongside the saree's elegance. On her eyes were thick-framed black square glasses. This unusual accessory with a traditional saree brought a different kind of contrast to her look.
In her hand was a small patterned bag with silver work, with a chain strap. Dangling earrings, multiple bracelets and a metal watch completed her look. Every accessory was chosen and measured.
Her makeup also bore the mark of restraint. The eye makeup was light, with a soft blush on the cheeks and clearly drawn brows. Without extra flamboyance, the facial makeup was clean and refined.
But what caught the eye most in the whole look was the bright red lipstick. Against the cool tone of the grey saree, this vivid red was the boldest statement of the look.
The actress kept her brown-highlighted hair open. With a side parting and thick wavy hair, an extra dimension was added to her look.
Rani's look was a reminder that flamboyance is not the last word in festive dressing. With a few chosen elements — a shimmering saree, matching accessories and bright lipstick — a restrained yet eye-catching look can be created.
Set against the backdrop of New York's world-famous museum, at a Diwali reception, Rani's presence remained an example of the meeting of the timeless appeal of Indian attire with modern fashion.
