November 9, 2021 (IANSlifeGiven that things have finally opened up post-pandemic, a series of Diwali celebrations were witnessed this year. We spotted Bollywood celebrities leaving no stone unturned with their festive looks. From lavish lehengas to stunning saris, there were a variety of sparkling outfits on display. Take a look!

Priyanka Chopra

Priyanka Chopra:

Our very own ‘desi’ girl was spotted in a bright velvet sharara set from Sabyasachi Mukherjee. Statement sunglasses, chunky jewellery and a bucket bag from the designer completed the look. When it comes to head-turning fashion, Chopra leads the list with her quirky fashion choices.

Malaika Arora

Malaika Arora:

Whether it’s a casual lunch date or a red-carpet appearance, Malaika Arora never disappoints. For one of the Diwali parties, she was spotted in a rose-red Manish Malhotra sari finished with a lime-green border. Keeping it entirely ethnic, the 48-year-old opted for matching bangles, a Polki necklace and a floral bun.

Alia Bhatt

Alia Bhatt:

The young and vibrant Alia Bhatt stepped out in a striking purple Sabyasachi lehenga. She accessorised her outfit with just gold jhumkas, letting the outfit do its magic. A closer look at her Indian wardrobe shows how the 28-year-old likes to keep it elegant and fuss-free on most occasions. 

Jacqueline Fernandez

Jacqueline Fernandez:

From power suits to playful separates, tailored gowns to flowy lehengas, there’s nothing that she can’t pull off. This year, for one of the festivities, Fernandez picked a beautiful Benarasi sari from Ekaya. The all-red ensemble made for a striking choice, with the OTT floral bun being the highlight.

Janhvi Kapoor

Janhvi Kapoor:

A quick glimpse at Kapoor’s Instagram feed shows the young star’s love for Indian wear. While lehengas and saris are mostly her go-to ensembles, this time the actress opted for a heavily embellished Anamika Khanna anarkali. The styling and make-up did full justice to her look. 

 

Sonam Kapoor

Sonam Kapoor Ahuja chose an ivory-hued ‘chikankari’ anarkali from Abu Jani- Sandeep Kosla. The style icon kept her make-up minimal and opted for a pair of danglers to accessorise the look.
