&Sonali Bendre recently stepped out in a look that stopped conversations. It wasn’t just a saree. Rather, it was a masterpiece where heritage and modern glam collided. She wore a custom Patan Patola saree designed by Jigya Patel of Jigyam Label. Because the saree fused rich craftsmanship with couture styling, it felt both timeless and cutting-edge.
The Craft Behind Patan Patola
Patan Patola is rare. It represents India’s double ikat weave tradition from Gujarat. Each piece demands precision. Each pattern demands patience. Indeed, artisans spend months—sometimes years—to produce one saree. Therefore, the fabric becomes more than cloth. Instead, it turns into a heritage piece. Furthermore, the geometry and jewel-like colours of Patola have always carried a regal aura.
Design Details That Shine
Jigya Patel reimagined classic motifs. She chose an organically dyed Patola base. Then, she added mirror work. Also, Mochi embroidery stitched delicate patterns. Meanwhile, a vintage pearl-bordered blouse completed the look. Because pearls have softness and elegance, they contrasted beautifully with Patola’s vibrancy. Thus, each element elevated the saree into couture territory.
A Palette of Artistry
Mirrors sparkled. Embroidery whispered of tradition. Pearls offered a vintage touch. Yet the saree felt balanced. The organically dyed base offered grounding. So that the embellishments didn’t overwhelm. Rather, they enhanced. Also, the blouse’s back got special attention: vintage pearl border that framed the look. Above all, the design celebrated craftsmanship without compromising wearability.
Sonali’s Poise and Presence
Of course, the saree needed a muse. Sonali Bendre delivered. She wore the saree without stiffness. Instead, she radiated grace. Though the saree is heavy in heritage, on her it looked warm, wearable, and celebratory. Moreover, her look felt personal. She embodied belonging. And as a result, the visual spoke louder than words.
Reimagining Heritage
Heritage often means tradition preserved. Yet here, tradition was also transformed. Because the saree didn’t merely replicate Patola. Instead, it reinterpreted it. With mirror & work embroidery & pearls. Therefore, the look underscores that heritage can evolve. And yet stay true. It can remain relevant. Especially during festive seasons or red-carpet appearances.
