Ananya Panday shimmered in pearls while Priyanka Chopra Jonas leaned into plaid in the best looks of the week

Wrapped and ruched in pista green, Mira Kapoor’s Acler mini was styled by Tanya Ghavri. The asymmetrical neckline—one side slouched low off the shoulder with the other ruched high near the neck—highlighted the sculpted folds that defined the silhouette. Golden teardrop earrings from The Gitsu and diamond-studded rings from House of JSK Jewels added a metallic touch, while peachy lips, dewy skin and barely-there waves polished off her literally award-winning look.

Sculptural waves met coral textures in Radhika Madan’s gown that she donned for an award function. Styled by Nidhi Agarwal, the actress wore Vaishali Studio’s Coils of Silence gown from their Kintsugi Collection, first unveiled at Paris Haute Couture Week. The strapless piece curved close to the body in a form-fitting silhouette, its neckline sculpted into a dramatic wave-like extension that rose over the chest. Textured, layered fabric was rippled with bubblegum and sherbet pink stripes from shoulder to hem, semi-sheer in spots to reveal a nude underlayer. Fine, hand-corded filaments made the gown resemble an intricate coral. Madan paired it with jewellery by DiAi Designs and Firefly Diamonds, completing a look that was as nature-inspired as it was architectural.

Marking India Day Parade festivities in New York City, Rashmika Mandanna, styled by Meagan Concessio, arrived in a red and gold Anarkali from Ritu Kumar’s showcase at India Couture Week 2025, Threads of Time: Reimagined collection. The floor-length silhouette had a fitted sweetheart bodice with embroidered full sleeves and volume from kalidar. The entire garment was dotted with dense metallic floral and paisley motifs in red, green and earth tones. A red chiffon dupatta with a vintage-inspired jhalar border draped the entire outfit. Anchored with a gunmetal choker, traditional jhumkas, aviator shades and a centre-parted sleek bun, the look brought Indian craft to a New York street backdrop.
