At Manish Malhotra’s glamorous Diwali celebration in 2025, many looked radiant—but Suhana Khan managed to steal the limelight.
She arrived in a look that combined tradition with youthful edge, making her presence felt at one of Bollywood’s most anticipated festive events.
Every detail of her outfit seemed calibrated to reflect both festivity and her evolving personal style.
The Saree: Sequins, Lace & Royal Purple
The highlight was a purple saree adorned with golden sequin lace detailing, a choice that felt regal yet contemporary.
This interplay of sequin sparkle and lace brought texture and dimension into the ensemble.
Rather than going for a conventional blouse, Suhana paired it with a bralette-style top embroidered with golden motifs.
The contrast between the intricate blouse and the drape of the saree created a balanced visual—one that married boldness with grace.
By choosing such a blouse, she leaned into the Gen Z aesthetic of fusion ethnic wear.
She also styled a belt at the waist over the saree drape, which is a modern trick to lend structure and prevent the pallu from slipping—while also giving the drape a contemporary silhouette.
Thus, the saree didn’t just drape over her—it interacted with her movement, catching light, reflecting it, and evolving as she moved.
Color, Contrast & Craftsmanship
One of the more striking elements was the royal purple hue—not a frequent choice in traditional Diwali palettes.
It offered a fresh color departure from the usual reds and golds, while still sounding festive.
Therefore purple canvas, the golden lace and sequin work popped—creating a harmonious contrast that felt festive without being loud.
The craftsmanship stood out. The sequence placement, the lace border, the embroidery on the blouse—everything appeared precise.
Even lighting on the red carpet seemed to favor her look, as the sequins caught highlights.
Styling: Glamour with Restraint
She wore statement earrings that echoed the golden tones in her outfit yet remained graceful.
Her hair was styled in loose waves, side-parted, offering softness and movement rather than strict formality.
