Let Shraddha Kapoor Inspire You To Paint The Town Red This Wedding Season
The actress’ method dressing for the promotional run of ‘Stree 2’ has us rushing to go head-to-toe red…
The hugely successful horror-comedy Stree 2 might have given us an entertaining way to spend the weekend but it also gave us Shraddha Kapoor’s version of the Lady in Red. The actress and her style team hopped on the method dressing hype train and channelled her character’s mysterious red energy in stunning outfits in the alluring hue.
While reds are a no-brainer for weddings, for brides or baraatis, it has been overtaken by pastels and other jewel tones over the past few years. The fiery hue is making its big comeback to wedding season colour palettes, as evidenced by the collections showcased on the runway at the Hyundai India Couture Week this year.
Shraddha Kapoor’s red run these past few weeks is just in time to inspire us to dig out the reds from our wardrobes (or invest in some fresh-off-the-runway looks), and stand out in style this wedding season.
Here are a few of our favourite recent red looks by the actress, be ready to take notes!
Best Red Looks By Shraddha Kapoor
The Nitya Bajaj sari
The actress’ Nitya Bajaj sari went viral for all the right reasons. The Ajrakh satin sari sprinkled with sequins and featuring a scalloped edge in a contrasting blue was paired with a zari and sequin Ajrakh blouse.
The House of Masaba sari
Shraddha Kapoor chose to go traditional red and gold with this look from the House of Masaba. Featuring Masaba Gupta’s iconic haathphool motif, the sari is for those who are drawn to classic styles with an edge.
The Saaksha & Kinni bustier
If you’re hesitant to go full red, you can go the Shraddha way and add a striking red element to your look, like this Saaksha & Kinni bustier for instance. The actress’ stylist teamed the custom-made strapless bustier, adorned with intricate mirror and threadwork, with a pair of black satin pants and a choker necklace for a stunning look.
The Anita Dongre dress
A sangeet or cocktail night is perfect for experimenting with a fusion look. You can get inspired by Shraddha’s red Pichhwai silk dress from Anita Dongre. Featuring the designer’s signature gota patti work, the dress was decorated with nature-inspired motifs and pearl and sequin embroidery.
The Rajiramniq salwar suit
For those who identify as minimalists, Shraddha’s red salwar suit by Rajiramniq with intricate embroidered details is ideal.
