Ditching the festive reds and golds, Kusha Kapila stunned in an ivory embellished and embroidered lehenga by Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla.
Kusha Kapila was styled by Harshita Samdariya.
Kusha Kapila recently turned heads in a breathtaking creation by couture legends Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla. She attended Esquire’s Diwali bash wearing an ivory lehenga that was nothing short of poetry in motion. Embodying a perfect blend of old-world charm and contemporary flair, her look exuded elegance, sophistication, and the kind of quiet glamour that stays with you long after the flashbulbs fade.
The lehenga, a celebration of intricate craftsmanship, featured lavish hand-embroidered floral motifs in delicate threadwork, punctuated with subtle sequins that shimmered gently with every movement. The embroidery extended from the flowing skirt to the hem, where ornate detailing brought texture and richness to the otherwise muted palette. The ivory tone, softened with blush and rose-gold accents, elevated the ensemble into something ethereal, exuding an almost bridal aura yet refreshingly wearable for a festive occasion.
Kusha Kapila’s blouse brought a sharp, modern twist to the traditional silhouette. With a deep, sculpted neckline and structured fit, it added an element of youthful sensuality while remaining tastefully elegant. The beaded embellishments mirrored the embroidery on the skirt, tying the look together with thoughtful harmony. Draped over her shoulder was a sheer dupatta, light and dreamlike, embroidered with soft floral touches that completed the couture fantasy.
Rather than over-accessorizing, Kusha wisely let the outfit take center stage. A delicate ring and a matching potli bag were her only companions, keeping the overall vibe refined and uncluttered. Her makeup was dewy and fresh with luminous skin, a mauve lip, and softly blushed cheeks, paired with flowing waves in her hair. It was beauty rooted in restraint, a perfect canvas for such a detailed ensemble.
This appearance served as a reminder of what Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla do best: create ensembles that tell a story of heritage and artistry, while embracing the present with open arms. On Kusha, this look didn’t just wear well; it moved with grace, whispered tradition, and spoke volumes about modern Indian fashion’s global evolution.
