Actor Kriti Sanon redefined festive glamour as she walked the ramp as the showstopper for designer Abhinav Mishra’s couture showcase in Delhi on October 24, 2026.
Turning heads in a metallic grey-and-silver lehenga, Sanon delivered a modern twist on traditional ethnic wear by replacing the classic dupatta with a sheer, dramatic cape.
A Modern Spin on Traditional Mirror-Work
Showcasing a bold departure from traditional festive reds and delicate pastels, Sanon’s outfit combined high-fashion couture with party-ready sparkle. The high-waisted grey-and-silver skirt featured dense geometric mirror-work, diamond-jaali embroidery along the waistband, and vertical panels that dissolved into floral bands toward the hemline.
Complementing the skirt, the sleeveless blouse featured a plunging sweetheart neckline encrusted with mirrors and sequins. Stepping away from conventional draping, Sanon skipped the traditional dupatta entirely, opting instead for a floor-sweeping, sheer cape-style drape embellished with mirrors and sequins that left her midriff and blouse fully visible.
Styling and How to Recreate the Look
To let the reflective ensemble take center stage, Sanon kept her beauty look soft and balanced. Her honey-blonde hair was styled in soft, center-parted waves, paired with smoked-out bronze eyeshadow, defined eyeliner, sculpted cheekbones, and a nude lip.
For fashion enthusiasts looking to adapt Sanon’s runway style for upcoming sangeet and Diwali events:
- Opt for a Sheer Cape: Swap heavy dupattas for a light, crystal-embroidered cape or longline jacket for hands-free comfort and a modern silhouette.
- Experiment With Metallic Tones: Move beyond traditional hues toward charcoal, grey, and silver tones enhanced by mirror-work for evening celebrations.
- Keep Accessories Minimal: When pairing heavy mirror-work blouses, skip chunky necklaces and choose delicate drop earrings or simple antique chokers.
