As a result, Malaika ended up with six yards of tradition that looked as if the wearer were going to a meeting in the boardroom. Malaika Arora has always been good at fashionably styling traditional pieces. The actress draped a saree in Melbourne, upgrading its usual gracefulness with a structured statement jacket that carried an attitude with a touch of fashion riot. Let’s quickly decode this fashionable mess.
For the event, Malaika picked a detailed saree-and-jacket outfit from Roseroom by Isha Jajodia, elevating the traditional garment to a high-fashion red-carpet level. Made from a lavish champagne-gold material, the saree came with subtle lace detailing and matching floral embroidery all over. The semi-translucent fabric, along with the neatly pleated saree, gave it a soft, flowing appearance, whereas the statement pleats gave the outfit a strong foundation.

Draped over the shoulders in a cape form, the coat featured broad shoulders, embellished detailing, and a pronounced vertical design. Further, the clean-cut tailoring added the power-dressing component to the outfit without taking away the charm of the drape, whereas the monochrome colour scheme provided the space for the textures of lace, beads, and shine to be visible.

The actress added a thick choker necklace along with a light diamond neckpiece with a pendant, matching earrings, a stack of bangles, and stunning rings. The beautiful combination of traditional and modern diamond jewellery suited her ensemble perfectly. As a finishing touch, she opted for a sparkly clutch from Maejoy.

Her nude lips helped balance out the makeup, while her hair was put up in a sleek bun, giving a chance for the jewellery and the structured jacket to take centre stage. Her Melbourne look was all about the right mix of a lace saree, a corset blouse, and an empowering long jacket, showcasing yet another way of reinventing Indian ethnicity for global red carpet events.
