For the press tour of her much-anticipated Telugu-language sports drama Peddi, Janhvi Kapoor has been cycling through a range of looks. There was the sculptural brocade sari-gown, then the richly embroidered, saturated purple lehenga, both by Anamika Khanna. Now, the actor has pivoted to an all-ivory sari by the couturier. Where the previous two ensembles leaned into drama and colour, this one relies on a romantic frequency.

Styled by Meagan Concessio, the actor’s minimal sari is crafted from a soft, fluid fabric. The sari takes a departure from traditional draping conventions through its form-fitted silhouette. A body-hugging skirt creates a streamlined foundation and it is paired with an extended cape-style pallu. Rendered in layers of fine embroidery over sheer ivory fabric, the pallu is finished with an intricate scalloped lace border. The focal point of the ensemble is her blouse, featuring cap sleeves and a sweetheart neckline. Fully embroidered with intricate resham thread work, it reflects a craft that has become Khanna’s most enduring and recognisable signature.
Over the years, Khanna has cultivated a distinctive design vocabulary that merges romance with innovation. Her collections frequently draw upon floral motifs, delicate embroideries and layered textures, often reimagined through modern construction. Kapoor’s ivory sari with tonal floral embroidery encapsulates that philosophy perfectly.
