Genelia Deshmukh elevates heritage dressing in a sophisticated Raw Mango saree with kamarbandh – The Times of India

Talking about effortless elegance rooted in deep tradition, Genelia Deshmukh always knows how to quietly refine her sartorial tone. This new appearance of hers is a testament to the style evolution she’s known for.

Always binding a deep connection with Indian crafts and textiles, she chose Raw Mango this time, which felt both nostalgic and refreshingly current for the summer.Looking no less than a traditional walking dream in this pale blue-grey Raw Mango drape, she induced life into this look with her red Banarasi silk tissue brocade blouse, which instantly brought in a hint of colour and sleek texture. The saree also featured a slim red band along the border, and through the soft pleats, the contrasting balance of the toned blouse stood out.

She wore the elbow-length red brocade blouse with dense gold detailing, which introduced a richer and cooler addition to the drape’s pale tone. But she didn’t just keep this look basic. She amplified it with jewels from Kishandas & Co., which included a gemstone-set necklace, stacked bangles, a statement ring, dangling jhumkas, and a traditional kamarbandh.

This belt changed the whole game, subtly drew the eye to the waist, and changed the way the saree fell through the middle, giving more definition to the overall look and silhouette.

Her hair and makeup also followed the same philosophy, where Genelia braided her long locks neatly with bright red roses and floral tassels.

On her beauty part, she kept a classic dewy makeup base with kohl-rimmed eyes, softly tinted lids, glossy lips, a muted lip shade, and a classic traditional red bindi. Her ensemble might look predictable to some, but the colour combination and the blending of cool with warm tones definitely made things stir up in the right direction.
