Sushmita Sen’s latest outing balanced power and poise in equal measure. Styled by Theia Tekchandaney, she wore an ivory Malta silk jacket by Rohit Bal that was hand-embroidered with tonal florals that climbed delicately across the surface. The longline silhouette, marked by a high collar, fitted bodice and flared panels, spoke to the designer’s approach to tailoring, while the threadwork added dimensional richness. Beneath, a layer of black offered visual depth, underscoring the luminosity of the ivory base. It’s the kind of construction and surface detail that has long defined Bal’s vocabulary.

Her jewellery delivered a counterpoint: diamond and gold chains, cascading into a sculptural pendant set with rubies and aquamarines. The layered composition created movement and opulence without excess, the saturated stones cutting through the monochrome palette. A wavy updo with loose tendrils framed Sushmita Sen’s face, while makeup was defined by sculpted brows, smoky eyes and a bold, matte rose lip that completed the arresting look.
From Vogue’s fashion desk:
“When wearing an anarkali jacket/ coat as subtly decadent as this ivory Rohit Bal number, why not pair with a lace ivory sari inside to create layered opulence. Work with a tone-on-tone layering. Ditch any neck or wrist jewellery, instead don a subtle pearl or diamond earring. The coat ought to be your focal point and let the silhouette do all the talking,” says Vogue India fashion associate Divya Balakrishnan.
