Shilpa Shetty showcased a striking draped sari from Amit Aggarwal, challenging the idea that red, as a fashion staple, is being overshadowed by more muted hues. This outfit reaffirms red’s enduring appeal in the fashion scene. Celebrities like Katrina Kaif and Sonam Kapoor also embraced various shades of red during Dussehra celebrations, further cementing its status.
In her selection, Shetty sported a red and pink chiffon sari with an innovative metal pipe accent cinching the waist, paired with a corset-style blouse that exhibited an intricate design. The sari’s unconventional drape and asymmetrical cut lent a contemporary flair to the classic attire. Her look was enhanced by carefully chosen accessories from Studio Metallurgy, including ornate gold arm cuffs from their Spring Summer ’20 line, delicate Algae ear cuffs, and a palm cuff featuring coral-like designs from their “Coral Collection.” These elements together delivered a majestic take on Indian tradition, highlighted by its gilded details.
For her makeup, Shetty embraced a subtle yet shimmering style, a favorite among celebrities for its understated yet radiant effect. Her makeup featured a deep, rosy, smoky eye, complemented by glossy, rosy nude lips. Her hairstyle, flowing in soft, natural curls, added an element of classic grace to her overall appearance.

Echoing the continued significance of red in fashion, Sabyasachi’s “Sabyasachi Red” collection reiterated the timelessness of the color. The designer himself has voiced his support for this vibrant hue. The Gucci Ancora show, especially with its emphasis on deep cherry reds, highlighted red’s impact on the international fashion stage. In the Indian context, where red has always held a special place, Sabyasachi’s assertion rings true: “Red is not seasonal; it is iconic.”
