Sari Style

Comment image 19


We mostly see Rekha don heavy kanjeevarams with even heavier jewellery when making a public appearance. At the unveiling of Dabboo Ratnani’s 2016 calendar though, she threw us quite the curveball wearing a white sari with Dolce & Gabbana-esque earrings and tortoise-shell sunnies.

I may not like that bag on her but still loved this departure from the usual. Did you as well?

  1. I don’t know if it is the drape, or the sari itself but it looks like she has just wrapped around a white bedsheet. Welcome relief to not see OTT gold but still not quite

  2. Is Rekha married? Well this is just distant knowledge that women use red sindoor in their hairs when they are married. Is it so? Just a random thought!! Donot bash me for my meager knowledge!!

    • She wears that sindoor in her hair by choice, not following any custom. I think she should be an inspiration to many women in India, who wants to continue wearing their bindi and sindoor even after they become widowed. In that way also she could be a trendsetter to many women, the way she already is. I have seen her do not OTT saree looks also, which she looks so lovely in it. That gorgeous she is.

  3. This is not at all a curveball from Ms. Rekha. I have seen her wearing these type of white sarees many times. This is also one of her signature style. She creates these type of looks, you will ONLY see on her. That is why she is one of the fashion icons in India.

  4. Anyone else would have been bashed for sloppily draping the sheet around her. We forgive her in the name of her signature style.
    Whats up with the sindoor?

  5. This is giving a very Maharani vibe, except for the meters of fabric around her.
    Looks like a shawl over the sari.
    Slightly neater, and she’d have nailed it!

  6. Wish the drape was not over he shoulder like that, it would have looked great with a regular drape. She still looks lovely in it white because it is REKHA!
