As Durga Puja is finally here, we bring celebrity-inspired laal paad sada saree looks for you to take inspiration from.
It’s Pujo time! The much-awaited Durga Puja is finally here and so is the time for Bangalis to flaunt new outfits while hopping around awe-inspiring pandals and simply revelling in the festive vibes. The joy and excitement during this five-day festival is understandably at its zenith. After all, Maa Aaschen!
Pujo fashion, for women, is definitely incomplete without a laal paad sada saree. Boasting a glaring red border on six yards of white expanse, the signature Bengali attire is reserved for Maha Ashtami. Laal paad sada sarees, that exude an unmissable traditional appeal, are also a favourite among Bollywood divas. In this week’s Fashion Friday, we bring celebrity-inspired laal paad sada saree looks for you to take inspiration from.
NORA FATEHI
Let’s begin on a rather regal note with Nora Fatehi’s heavily-embroidered laal paad sada saree that she donned for a shoot last year. The traditional ensemble hailed from the shelves of designer Anjul Bhandari and was meticulously adorned with chikankari work. The striking red border, also accentuated with golden embroidery, ran along the hem and gave the saree a festive feel.
Her traditional red blouse, bold red lips and an ogle-worthy assemblage of temple jewels added oodles of charm to her look.
SAI PALLAVI
If minimalism is what screams your style, we have you covered! Take a cue from Maari actress Sai Pallavi’s understated yet elegant number. She wore an ivory cotton saree with a delicate but, of course, an evident red border. She styled it with a silk red blouse that boasted stylish puffed sleeves.
