Priyanka Chopra Jonas’s Anamika Khanna sari layers ivory threadwork with statement jewellery

There’s no shortage of high-shine occasionwear right now, which is why Priyanka Chopra Jonas’s latest Anamika Khanna sari feels like a conscious pivot. The work here is measured, layered and far more about technique than theatrics for the sake of it.

Styled by Ami Patel, the sari is built on a sheer, lightly crinkled base embroidered with dense threadwork at the hem that gradually thins as it climbs the drape. The border carries fine gold detailing that gives the pallu a defined edge when pinned at the shoulder. The blouse mirrors the same language: compact embroidery, short sleeves and a sculpted neckline that frames the jewellery rather than competing with it.

Her jewellery adds volume. A layered gold choker sits close to the neck, paired with earrings, a round maang tikka and multiple kadas at the wrist. A kamar patta pulls the look together at the waist without interrupting the fall of the fabric.

Her hair is set into a centre-parted low updo with loose tendrils softening the face. The makeup stays warm and seamless: brushed brows, a diffused wing, a hint of shine on the lids and a rose-toned lip that keeps everything in the same tonal lane as the sari.

From Vogue’s fashion desk:

“To embody Priyanka’s devi aesthetic, start with an off-white or ivory Chikankari sari or any subtle tone-on-tone weave. Pair it with a matching blouse; the blouse silhouette truly defines the mood, so consider a sweetheart neckline. Adorn your braid with mogras or baby breath. With the jewellery stray from tradition and opt for diamond and platinum pieces for some edge,” says Vogue India fashion associate Divya Balakrishnan.
