When it comes to style, Tabu has always struck a balance between understated elegance and timeless sophistication. Known for her idiosyncratic performances and bold on-screen costumes, the actor in real life leans towards classic, hand-crafted pieces that celebrate India’s rich textile heritage.
Her latest look, styled by Natasha Vohra, is a testament to that philosophy. Designed by Aamra by Lavanya, the ensemble features an ivory Banarasi Chanderi silk lehenga paired with a short-sleeved blouse. Subtle zari pinstripes run vertically across the fabric, giving it an understated shimmer, while the V-neckline blouse is elevated with scalloped borders, golden sequin detailing, and gotta patti chevron lace.
The true star of the outfit, however, is the hand-painted kalamkari dupatta, themed “Birds outside cages.” Crafted in pen kalamkari silk, the piece flows in serene ice-blue tones, detailed with floral and avian motifs, pitta work, and sequin embroidery. The tri-layered gota patti border with tassels offers structure to the otherwise fluid, artistic drape—making it feel less like fabric and more like wearable art.
Tabu accessorised with a rich bangle stack and rings from Kalyan Jewellers, while a pastel-toned choker and drop earrings with vivid stones added a pop of contemporary sparkle. Her beauty look embraced the floral theme: a sleek low bun adorned with yellow roses, sculpted brows, softly diffused peach cheeks, and expressive eyes brought the entire vision together.
Indian designers such as Rahul Mishra and Varun Bahl have long drawn inspiration from floral motifs, using them as a narrative tool for intricate detailing and storytelling. Tabu’s look embodies this philosophy—proving that timeless craft fused with natural inspiration creates fashion that is truly unforgettable.
