1. Tamannaah Bhatia in Nachiket Barve
Classy never goes out of style, right? Tamannaah’s black-and-white saree is a masterclass in elegant dressing. Not too OTT, not too plain — just the perfect mix. Ideal for those of us who want to keep it simple but stylish at any shaadi function.
2. Alia Bhatt in Sabyasachi
Alia showed up looking like a chef’s kiss in a plain black saree paired with a spicy, embellished blouse. This outfit gives the primary cocktail party energy. So, if you’re planning to turn heads without trying too hard, this one’s a clear winner.
3. Shilpa Shetty in Seema Gujral
Corsets are back, and Shilpa’s here for it! Her look screams drama in the best way. Think wedding receptions, glam nights, or anywhere you need that primary character energy.
4. Rashmika Mandanna in Amit Aggarwal
If modern and edgy is your vibe, Rashmika’s pre-stitched saree with that inside-out pallu twist is a must-see. The luxe fabric and fresh styling make it a statement piece. Perfect for the girlies who love breaking the rules — fashion ones, of course!
5. Sobhita Dhulipala in Satya Paul
Sobhita’s printed saree is a bold pick if you’re bored with plain black. With orange animal-inspired motifs, this one’s quirky and cool. Rock it for brunches or artsy events where your outfit speaks before you do.
6. Shraddha Kapoor in Torani
Saree? Gown? Cape? Why choose when you can have it all! Shraddha’s hybrid look is a total showstopper. We’d say it’s perfect for brides looking to ditch tradition and try something offbeat-yet-fabulous for their cocktail night.
7. Bhumi Pednekar in Gaurav Gupta
Structured drapes and sculpted glam — Bhumi’s look is a whole mood. Definitely not your usual saree vibe. This is for the fearless fashionistas who don’t mind being the centre of attention.
8. Genelia Deshmukh in Ashdeen
Soft, delicate, and beautifully desi, Genelia’s pick with Parsi gara embroidery and shibori work is timeless. Paired with a fitted blouse, it’s a charmer for family functions or intimate gatherings.
9. Karisma Kapoor in Satya Paul
Who knew shirts could double up as blouses? Karisma nailed that boss babe-meets-saree queen energy. Great inspo for office parties or formal settings where you wanna mix tradition with some serious power dressing.
