She charmed us from the word go. For she had us with a wink and a rapturous smile way back in 2003. And Genelia Deshmukh is intent on retaining her cute girl next door vibe. But she flipped the board to a maximalist glamorous style for an appearance at the recently concluded IIFA 2023 Awards in Abu Dhabi. And it was all about opulence as she toughened up her black saree with a one-of-a-kind exquisite jewellery piece that became the centrepiece of her look. She was styled by Shounak Amonkar and Pranay Jaitley. Jewellery is always in vogue, but how we wear it and the pieces that we wear keep changing all the time. With its power to change the mood of your look, the bigger the better. Because go big or go home, right?
Genelia has crafted a fine fashion arsenal featuring silhouettes, hues and cuts that only flatter her petite frame. She has enlisted her name to the wave of new-age fashion influence. But what really sets her apart from the overrated celebrity closets is relevance and relatability. In addition to luxe labels, she also does easy styles from homegrown labels that also happen to be wallet-friendly. Here’s how Genelia went jingle jangle with her incredible jewellery find.
Bold, Black, Beautiful – Genelia Deshmukh
She draped a Vaishali S saree featuring stripe detailing. It was aptly paired with a velvet jacket by Jewellyn Alvares. A whole melange of one-of-a-kind jewellery by Motifs by Surabhi Didwania elevated the whole saree look. It featured an earring cum mang tika in pure silver with detailing of kundan stones and tassels worth Rs.64,066. A silver mini sling bag, leaf ring and a tribal weave ring upped the look. An edgy glam of bold lined eyes, dark eyebrows, nude lips and a deft touch of a highlighter accompanied. Her hair was bunched up in a centre-parted slick bun.
