Perfect festive glam
The first and foremost, a South Indian-inspired look by a South queen herself. Anushka effortlessly dons a red-orange silk saree paired with a plain red blouse, eschewing heavy jewellery for a small bindi, golden jhumkas, a round neckpiece, and a single bangle. Her braided hair adorned with a gajra completes the look.
Floral beauty
Anushka's choice of a white saree adorned with red-orange florals, worn uniquely with a twisted drape and a plain long red blouse, exemplifies simplicity. Complemented by a small bindi, emerald earrings, a ring, and a single bangle, this look exudes elegance.
Black-white elegance
Black hue is considered not correct to wear on festivals but never until you ace it perfectly like Anushka. Mastering the art of wearing the hue at festivals, Anushka overshadowed the black blouse with a plain white saree featuring an embellished golden border.
