Are you also obsessed with Priyanka Chopra’s latest look from the 'Varanasi' event? The diva was seen wearing a traditional attire Anamika Khanna lehenga and fans could not take their eyes off her. For brides searching for something classic yet refreshingly modern, Priyanka’s look might just be the ultimate pre-wedding blueprint.

Priyanka Chopra shines in a traditional outfit

Priyanka served the perfect bridal inspiration in her latest outing. Instead of wearing the lehenga in a conventional style, Priyanka chose to drape it like a saree, creating a refined, elongated form.

The lehenga, from the house of Anamika Khanna, is an all-white lehenga with delicate ivory and gold crystal and sequin embellishments. Complementing the ornate set was an embroidered soft dupatta, featuring delicate motifs and a golden border.

Other than her gorgeous lehenga, what caught our fancy was her South Indian-inspired jewellery — from a traditional kamarbandh to gold and pearl hair accessories — and a classic green bindi.

How to style your attire like Priyanka ft. Wedding season

Instead of wearing the lehenga in a conventional style, Priyanka chose to drape it like a saree, giving us the best of both worlds.

Her hairstyle further amplified the look. Priyanka embraced a simple, sleek plait but transformed it using layered hair jewellery. These accessories instantly bring richness and texture.

Another noteworthy detail was her kamarbandh. Whether bejewelled or understated, the kamarbandh has returned as a statement accessory in modern bridal wardrobes. Priyanka chose one that added both structure and sheen to her South-Indian inspired look.

And then came the bangles. Instead of perfectly matching sets, Priyanka Chopra opted for mismatched bangles. She stacked her bangle Gen Z style, and we totally love it. The mix-and-match trend is also huge among Gen Z brides and fashion-forward bridesmaids.

Together, these styling elements — the saree-like drape, hair jewellery, kamarbandh and mismatched bangles — formed a look that was desi with a hint of modern.

From haldi and mehendi to intimate pujas, this ensemble can work across multiple events and themes.

On the work front

Priyanka Chopra has come to India for the 'Globetrotter' event that was organised in Hyderabad for the title reveal of SS Rajamouli's ‘Varanasi.’ Earlier known as SSMB29, the film's star cast includes Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra, and Prithviraj Sukumaran.
