Radhika Merchant looked like a modern goddess for the 'Mangal Utsav' ceremony
For the Mangal Utsav reception, Radhika Merchant made a statement in a contemporary Indian silhouette with a striking ensemble created by the biggest names in the fashion world – Anamika Khanna and Dolce Gabbana.
Looking like a golden goddess in a luminous ensemble, Radhika wore a Dolce Gabbana Alta Moda Sardegna 2024 corset with intricate filigree embroidery and elaborate custom draping and skirt by Anamika Khanna. The shimmering detailing and strategically placed tone-on-tone gold embroidery embodied grace, elegance and glamour.
Stylist Rhea Kapoor’s cutting-edge collaboration and creative vision of combining Indian craftsmanship with the modern aesthetics of the West make Radhika’s reception look a masterpiece. Anamika Khanna’s artistic approach to couture has always celebrated Indian craftsmanship with a contemporary flair. Every drape she designs tells a story, and Radhika’s ensemble is one such beautiful moment.
Radhika’s glamorous look was complemented by diamond jewellery that included a stunning necklace, earrings and bangles. The dreamy golden draping and embroidery matched Radhika’s stylish aura. Radhika was also styled by Sanya Kapoor and Shereen. Her perfectly blow-dried cascading hair was styled by Hiral Bhatia, and her minimalistic makeup that enhanced her stunning features was done by celebrity makeup artist Loveleen Ramchandani.
Radhika Merchant’s wedding ensembles have been the perfect lookbook for brides-to-be. From traditional to contemporary silhouettes, each ensemble was crafted with love. Rich in heritage and celebrating Indian craftsmanship, each design adorned by Radhika has been a magical and festive style journey.
While Radhika kept it bright, Anant opted for a midnight blue bandhgala sherwani for the Mangal Utsav celebrations.
