Radhika Merchant, Shloka Mehta And Isha Ambani Serve Ethnic Glam At Swadesh Store Launch In Mumbai

Last Updated: Radhika Merchant, Isha Ambani and Shloka Mehta turned heads at the Swadesh store launch in Mumbai, showcasing elegant ethnic ensembles in sarees and suits The inauguration of the new Swadesh store in Mumbai turned into a showcase of traditional style as the Ambani women arrived dressed in stunning ethnic ensembles. From rich silks to intricate embroidery, Radhika Merchant, Isha Ambani, and Shloka Mehta gave us major desi fashion inspiration. Here's a breakdown of their looks: Radhika exuded elegance in a rich orange silk saree, accentuated with broad golden borders. Draped in a classic style with the pallu cascading gracefully over her shoulder, she wore a matching blouse to maintain the timeless appeal. Her jewellery added a royal touch—she wore a diamond choker accented with green emeralds, oversized diamond earrings, and her mangalsutra. With dewy makeup and her hair styled in a sleek half-up, half-down do, Radhika looked nothing short of radiant. Isha Ambani's Bold Bandhani Look Isha chose a vibrant red bandhani saree detailed with broad golden borders, giving her look a festive edge. She styled it with a gold-toned, heavily embellished blouse that amped up the celebratory vibe. Her accessories included a traditional layered necklace and coordinating earrings, lending her look a rich, ethnic finish. With soft, glowing makeup and her hair left open in gentle waves, Isha struck the perfect balance between grandeur and grace. Shloka Mehta's Sophisticated Suit Style Shloka opted for a refined alternative to the saree, an embroidered ethnic suit in soft beige tones, adorned with multicoloured threadwork. She paired it with palazzo pants and added contrast with a vibrant orange silk dupatta. Her look was accessorised with statement earrings, and she kept her beauty look fresh with nude-toned makeup and loose, middle-parted hair. Shloka's outfit was the epitome of understated elegance. Together, the trio offered a masterclass in festive Indian dressing traditional, luxe, and effortlessly stylish. view comments First Published: July 23, 2025, 08:23 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Isha Ambani wears Roberto Cavalli gown ‘handmade over months using classic Bandhani'; netizens say ‘a true celebration of Indian artistry meeting Italian drama'

Isha Ambani's wardrobe is an eclectic mix of Indian and Western couture, paying homage to the rich heritage and talent of both sides of the world. Whether it's her family's wedding celebrations or the iconic steps of the Met Gala, Isha never misses a chance to shine a special spotlight on Indian artisans and craftsmanship. Last night, Anaita Shroff Adajania took to Instagram to share the stunning results of her latest collaboration with Italian couturier Roberto Cavalli — a custom pink Bandhani gown, inspired by a 2012 project. Sharing insights into this collaboration, the stylist wrote: 'A really special collaboration with Roberto Cavalli creating a couture gown for Isha that elegantly fused Indian craftsmanship with Italian couture. Handmade over months using classic Bandhani traditionally from Kutch, crafted by local artisans.' Designed by Fausto Puglisi, the look drew inspiration from Cavalli's 2012 collaboration with Vogue India for Project Renaissance – a 'very special' piece of work for Adajania. Inspired by the original design, which featured a halter-neck fishtail gown in maroon with golden brocade embroidery panels stitched along the expanse of the fabric, Isha's hot pink ensemble featured similar golden embroidery. For accessories, she chose pink and white diamond-shaped earrings, dainty finger rings, and a sleek wrist charm, and kept her hair loose and voluminous. A wash of soft pink on her lips and eyes, and rosy blush accentuated her look. 'Assigning Indian textiles to global fashion houses and asking them to reimagine tradition? Genius,' digital creator and fashion critic Diet Sabya wrote on their Instagram. 'When Anaita Shroff Adajania recreates one of those iconic looks today, it's not just a throwback but a love letter to a moment in time (pre-Instagram) when magazines and publishing reigned supreme and the fashion editorial was gospel. Before content became 'content,' before stylists had to chase engagement metrics, and before the AI-fication of design-at-large.' Netizens, too, were highly impressed with many of them responding with comments like: 'Stunning,' 'Epic,' 'What a spectacular fusion of heritage and haute couture. The Bandhani detailing adds such soul to the silhouette, a true celebration of Indian artistry meeting Italian drama. Loved seeing Cavalli's legacy reimagined with such depth and meaning. Bravo, @anaitashroffadajania ,' and 'Absolutely beautiful ❤️❤️.' Isha Ambani's love for Bandhani is nothing new, though. For her brother's wedding celebrations last year, she wore a custom Arpita Mehta tier ruffle Bandhani sari with signature mirror, thread, and cut danna hand embroidery to craft motifs. Kolkata-based Naina Jain, the creator of #EvergreenBandhanis, provided us with a glimpse into the traditional art of Bandhani, a piece of history, culture, and storytelling with deep roots in Rajasthan and Gujarat. 'Bandhani is the hand-tying process of fabric into a desired pattern, where each small portion is picked minutely and tied using cotton thread,' said Naina. These knots are the foundation of bandhani's intricate beauty, each symbolising life events like birth, marriage, and celebration. Artisans from remote Kutch villages are the true craft masters, tying each knot with precision to ensure uniformity and symmetry. This labour-intensive craft can take days, weeks, or even months to complete. Unlike mass-produced fabrics, true bandhani is all about the slight imperfections. 'In real bandhani, no two dots are exactly alike. That's the mark of a hand-crafted piece,' said Jain. The slight irregularities, the dots that don't quite align, and the patterns that seem to dance across the fabric are what give authentic bandhani its charm.

Isha Ambani Champions Indian Craftsmanship in a Stunning Bandhani Gown by Roberto Cavalli

Last Updated: Isha Ambani stuns in custom Roberto Cavalli Gown featuring handcrafted Bandhani Every time Indian craftsmanship intersects with international couture, the result is nothing short of magical—and Isha Ambani is the most dazzling example of this fusion. Known for her impeccable taste and sartorial flair, the business heiress never fails to impress with her style choices. Her latest appearance in a custom-made gown by Italian luxury fashion house Roberto Cavalli was a true celebration of cultural elegance and contemporary design. For those who may not know, Isha Ambani has long been a champion of Indian textiles and traditional artistry on the world stage. Her newest ensemble is a testament to that legacy. This unique creation, designed by Fausto Puglisi, Creative Director at Roberto Cavalli, was handcrafted over several months and featured the age-old Bandhani dyeing technique, which hails from the Kutch region of Gujarat. Crafted meticulously by skilled Indian artisans, the fabric brought an authentic, artisanal soul to the high-fashion silhouette—perfectly fusing heritage with high-end drama. According to celebrity stylist Anaita Shroff, the look also subtly referenced Cavalli's iconic 2012 collaboration with Vogue India for Project Renaissance, which spotlighted Indian crafts through a luxury lens. It's clear that this historic moment helped shape the creative direction of Isha's gown. Statement Jewels and Finishing Touches Of course, no Ambani ensemble is complete without head-turning jewellery. Isha paired her vibrant gown with a striking pair of earrings by Hanut Singh, adorned with Noblesse Pink Sapphires, Emeralds, Diamonds, and delicate Enamel work. A few elegantly chosen rings added just the right amount of sparkle, letting the vivid craftsmanship of the gown remain center stage. This appearance is yet another powerful example of Isha's evolving style—where global luxury meets the soul of India. Once again, she shows us how tradition and modernity don't just coexist—they can be absolutely iconic together.
