Alia Bhatt is making a strong case for understated festive dressing, proving that one doesn’t always need heavily embellished lehengas to make a statement. The 33-year-old actress recently appeared in a gorgeous gold ensemble, sharing pictures on Instagram through celebrity stylist Priyanka Kapadia Badani. Captioning the look simply as “Golden 💛”, Alia showcased a beautiful blend of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary tailoring.

The highlight of her appearance is a custom creation by designer Mayyur Girotra. She wears a long, kalidar jacket crafted from luxurious gold-woven Banarasi fabric, giving the ensemble a rich and regal appeal. The structured silhouette features a high collar with a deep V-shaped neckline, a fitted bodice and a front slit that adds movement and definition to the outfit.

The intricate craftsmanship makes this creation particularly special. The jacket features the designer’s archival Mor Bagh Tree of Life motif, complemented by delicate kora work along the hem and cuffs. Enamel and diamond buttons add another layer of luxury, enhancing the outfit without making it look excessively ornate. She pairs the statement jacket with matching tailored gold trousers, creating a coordinated silhouette that beautifully balances ethnic elegance with contemporary power dressing.

However, the accessories bring an unexpected twist to her look. Instead of opting for conventional gold jewellery, stylist Priyanka Kapadia Badani introduces a beautiful contrast through sapphire blue jewellery from PC Totuka and Sons. A striking cabochon-gem choker embellished with diamonds, matching stud earrings and a solitaire ring complete her regal appearance. Her pointed-toe woven gold mules further complement the metallic tones.

For beauty, Alia keeps things sophisticated with soft, middle-parted waves, glowing skin, brown smoky eyes and glossy nude lips. The understated makeup allows the richness of the outfit and statement jewellery to take centre stage.
