Jonathan Bailey—famed for his on-screen role in Bridgerton—recently turned heads with a refined yet culturally respectful outfit choice. He attended a friend’s wedding in Italy and opted for a soft white kurta layered with a teal or grey Nehru-style jacket, paired with a tailored grey suit. The look struck a perfect balance between heritage styling and contemporary formalwear.
Key details of the ensemble
-
The base layer: a white kurta, offering a sleek, minimal backdrop.
-
The Nehru jacket: a structured piece, in teal or a muted tone, lending the “desi” aesthetic but styled sleekly.
-
The suit element: grey trousers or a full suit ensemble beneath/alongside the jacket, blending Western and South Asian formalwear.
-
The setting: the wedding of his friend (identified in some sources as Sach Dhawan) where the actor served as best man.
Why the look matters
-
Cross-culture appeal: Jonathan’s outfit is a strong example of how South Asian wedding attire is being adopted and adapted by international personalities—bridging cultures through style.
-
Modern formalwear with heritage cues: He didn’t wear full heavy ethnicwear; instead he used elements (kurta + Nehru jacket) as accents alongside classic Western tailoring. This makes the look accessible and adaptable.
-
Fashion conversation starter: Fans took note—his look sparked social-media chatter beneath the hashtag-style “desi” and “Kanthony” (a shorthand fusion for the character Anthony Bridgerton) threads.
