Mumbai — At the second India edition of the Harper’s Bazaar Women of the Year Awards 2025, influencer-entrepreneur Diipa Buller-Khosla, honoured with the “Luxury Content Creator” award, turned heads on the red carpet in a striking red saree that blended couture drama with traditional Indian finesse.
The look
Diipa opted for a rich satin-silk Banarasi saree in true crimson red, adorned with subtle gold motifs. What made the ensemble distinct was the blouse: a cheongsam-inspired high neck design. Therefore creating an East-meets-South-Asian aesthetic that elevated the entire drape.
