Clothes as dreamy as the wedding: Decoding Prateik Smita Patil and Priya Banerjee's wedding outfits by Tarun Tahiliani
On February 14, actor couple Prateik Patil Babbar and Priya Banerjee tied the knot. Their wedding attire was designed by Tarun Tahiliani , which led to a chatter amongst fashion aficionados especially with Babbar's look. In an exclusive conversation with Wedding Times, Tarun Tahiliani shares the inspiration and design process behind the couple's wedding looks. From the outset, Priya and Prateik's vision for their wedding attire was clear: 'they wanted garments that would reflect their true selves, capturing their love in a way that felt genuine and free-spirited'. "In the modern India it's no longer enough for the bride and groom to simply look the part—they want to feel it too. The modern couple desires an ensemble that empowers them, one that reflects their individuality and allows them to celebrate their special day with comfort and ease," he says, adding, "Wedding attire shouldn't feel like a costume. It should be something that connects them to the emotions and experiences of the day, a garment that continues to grow with their personal style, just as their love will." Prateik's looks, in particular, have sparked a conversation about gender-fluid fashion, with the pre-draped dhoti reinterpreting tradition for the modern man. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Đây có thể là thời điểm tốt nhất để giao dịch vàng trong 5 năm qua IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo Tahiliani's design approach was centered around creating a look that would reflect Babbar's personality, with a silk drape shirt, paired with a pre-stitched charmeuse dhoti, and a meticulously hand-embroidered sherwani. 'His ensemble is a narrative of modern masculinity told through the language of refined luxury and ease. The modern groom seeks freedom in self-expression, wearing what resonates with his personality,' Tahliani states, adding, "For centuries, Indian men intuitively draped fabric—whether as dhotis, lungis, or angavastrams—moving with grace and ease. The dhoti was not just ceremonial but everyday wear, offering both comfort and quiet sophistication. With the advent of Western tailoring, drapery gave way to structured silhouettes. While sharp tailoring has its place, there is undeniable beauty in fluidity—deeply rooted in our cultural memory." While Banerjee's look 'was about balance—structural elements meeting fluid grace'. 'The fishtail mermaid skirt enhanced the body's natural form while resham embroidery, crystals, sequins, pearls, and beads brought a luminous richness. Paired with a structured corset, it creates a silhouette that is strong yet feminine. The beauty of the corset lies in its timelessness; it can be worn as a separate piece, paired with chic trousers, or a skirt that helps the bride to relive the memories tied to her wedding day in a simpler outfit,' he adds. Tahiliani hopes his designs for the newlywed's wedding attire will be a testament to the power of fashion to capture the essence of a couple's love story. "The emotional resonance of these ensembles lies in their ability to transcend the occasion," Tahiliani notes. "As the years pass, I envision these garments being revisited—worn on special occasions, reinterpreted for future celebrations. They are not pieces to be locked away; they are living memories, evolving with time, much like the love story they represent,' he concludes. Talking about their wedding looks, Prateik shares, "We had a meeting for four hours, but we picked our outfits in 40 minutes. This was the first outfit that Priya picked and tried – and it worked." Priya, adds, "He wanted to wear a Bengali dhoti. So, I remember we had a meeting with TT (Tarun Tahiliani) and the first outfit he picked for Prateik was a fusion of dhoti."

Devangi Nishar Parekh's Cannes Conversations Honoured Craft, Couture and Cinema
Last Updated: Devangi Nishar Parekh, MD of Aza Fashions talks about representing Indian fashion at the 78th Cannes Film Festival. Craft, Couture & Cinema took centre stage in Devangi Nishar Parekh Cannes journey. Celebrating Indian craftsmanship at the 78th Cannes Film Festival, Devangi Nishar Parekh, Managing Director, Aza Fashions and founder of Araiya by Aza, was on the Voices of Influence: Craft, Creativity and Cultural Presence panel at the Bharat Pavilion. Marking her Cannes debut with the best in Indian fashion – Tarun Tahiliani, Anamika Khanna, Rimzim Dadu, Nupur Kanoi, Gauri & Nainika and Richa Khemka, Devangi's fashion narrative spoke a modern India story that was confident, culturally rooted, and globally admired. Sharing her experience with News18, Devangi spoke about representing Indian fashion, speaking at the Bharat Pavilion and why the Cannes red carpet new dress code guideline made sense. Describe your first-ever experience of the 78th Festival de Cannes through fashion. Representing Indian fashion at such a globally influential platform as the Cannes Film Festival was an incredible honour. Cannes is a celebration of creativity – a confluence of cultures, a vibrant exchange of ideas, and a meeting point for brilliant minds from around the world. Being there was a chance to showcase the amalgamation of rich craftsmanship and contemporary aesthetics that defines modern Indian fashion. I enjoyed engaging with people from diverse backgrounds, sharing stories, and seeing how Indian fashion resonates with a global audience. The conversations were about storytelling – how each piece, handcrafted with love and precision, reflects modern India's evolving identity. advetisement Take us through your vision of shaping India's global identity through fashion at Cannes 2025. Indian fashion has a rich history with beautiful craftsmanship; at the same time, it is forward-thinking and globally relevant. At Cannes, I wanted to present a narrative that speaks to the modern India story — one that is confident, culturally rooted, and globally admired. The designers and looks I selected – Anamika Khanna, Tarun Tahiliani, Rimzim Dadu, Nupur Kanoi, Gauri and Nainika and Richa Khemka all speak to this. Representing India fashion with Indian designers: Why did you pick these looks for the Cannes Film Festival? Each of my outfits was carefully created in collaboration with the designers, focusing on handcrafted detailing and thoughtful narratives. The Tarun Tahiliani concept saree was another modern interpretation of India's timeless drape – structured yet soft, and rooted in tradition. Another piece I loved was the quilted jacket and hand-embroidered skirt set by Richa Khemka, which had a symbolic meaning behind it: that even the tiniest fragments of art – like individual tiles – can come together to create a beautiful whole. Sustainability is also at the heart of my vision, and it was important to me that the jewellery I wore represented my philosophy of innovation and ethical practices. Wearing jewellery from Araiya by Aza at Cannes was not just about fashion but about telling the story of a forward-looking, responsible, and proud India, which is going to play a pivotal role in the growth of the global lab-grown diamond industry going forward. Memories of the 78th Cannes Film Festival that will always hold a special place in your journey? Speaking at the Bharat Pavilion – a space dedicated to celebrating India's cultural and creative influence – and sharing my vision and journey on a panel of Indian women shaping a global narrative, will always hold a special place in my heart. For this, I wore an archival Anamika Khanna creation, a powerful tribute to India's artisanal heritage. The meticulously tailored jacket weaves together Kathiawari stitches, Ahmedabad's jali and haveli motifs, Ajrakh-inspired patterns from Kutch, Bengal's kantha, Punjab's phulkari, and the flowing grace of chanderi weaves from Madhya Pradesh – a living archive of pan-Indian craftsmanship, reimagined with contemporary elegance. This stunning jacket was paired with embroidered brocade pants, another rich legacy craft. Advertisement top videos View All Do you feel fashion should be restricted, and were the Cannes dress code rules justified? I believe that maintaining ease of movement for all guests is important at an event of this scale, and from a practical perspective, the guidelines do make sense given the vast number of individuals attending the festival.

After stunning in a blush pink Tarun Tahiliani couture outfit at her Cannes debut, Janhvi Kapoor's second look from the film festival is out. While her first appearance was a tribute to her mother, the late actor Sridevi, Janhvi's second outfit pays homage to India's rich cultural heritage and traditional jewellery. The actor wore a custom-made Anamika Khanna ensemble for the official premiere screening of her film Homebound at Cannes. The look featured a backless mint green gown with a long, flowing trail. The upper part of the high-neckline gown was adorned with antique gold embroidery, giving it a regal look with a modern edge. Janhvi accessorised the look with a curated blend of archival traditional Indian jewellery paired with custom jade and jadau pieces, which lent the attire a vintage charm. She wore her hair in a sleek bun and completed the look with traditional earrings. Rhea Kapoor shared photos of Janhvi's look and wrote, 'For the Official Premiere Screening of Homebound this morning in Cannes. @janhvikapoor wears custom @ couture. She wears a mix of archival traditional Indian jewels mixed with custom jade and jadau creations.' A post shared by Rhea Kapoor (@rheakapoor) Janhvi made her debut at Cannes on Tuesday. She arrived at the film festival with her Homebound co-stars Ishaan Khatter and Vishal Jethwa. The film's producer Karan Johar and director Neeraj Ghaywan also accompanied them. For her debut appearance, the actor wore a Tarun Tahiliani couture outfit that was handcrafted all the way from Banaras. Fans believed that the traditional lehenga with a ghoonghat was Janhvi's way of paying tribute to her mother Sridevi, while also staying true to her Indian roots. About Homebound Homebound tells the story of two friends from a village in North India who pursue jobs in the police force in search of the dignity they have been denied all their lives. However, as they move closer to achieving this dream, their relationship begins to feel the strain. Homebound has Hollywood legend Martin Scorsese as its executive producer. The film is produced by Karan Johar, Adar Poonawalla, Apoorva Mehta, and Somen Mishra.
