The bewitching enchantress of Bollywood!

Evergreen and irreplaceable, Bollywood’s forever crush, Rekha, is not just another actress but a femme fatale of the Indian cinema who is also an epitome of grace and regal sophistication. A look of hers can still race male and female pulses, but have you ever thought how she does it with an effortless glance? Two things help her: a youthful countenance that nature has bestowed on her and her love for Indian sarees. When it comes to draping the six yards of grace, none can match her poise. Let’s take a look at the 5 most-worn saree colours by Rekha, which should be a must-have in your wardrobe.

2/6

The allure of crimson and gold

Saree and Rekha are absolutely synonymous. This veteran diva is seen in blended shades of crimson and gold many a time and always manages to look exquisite. During an event in Mumbai, she marked her attendance in a Manish Malhotra creation that almost took our breath away. She wore a crimson and gold-blend silk Kanjeevaram saree with mild red shades and draped the nine yards in traditional style with a red silk blouse featuring a round neckline and full-length sleeves with iconic gold cuffs.

Bringing magic in silver and gold

The undisputed queen of Bollywood has roared at multiple events, decked in a silver and gold blended saree, bringing the magic of these grand metal shades in one palette. Radiating pure grace and serenity, on one occasion, she was seen in a silver Kanjeevaram silk saree with golden detailing all over the main bodice and pallu. Styling it traditionally, she matched its elegance with a similarly hued, full-length-sleeved blouse, making it an ideal pick for all the momagers out there.

Signature styling in black and gold

Continuing to wow her fans with her inimitable style, she recently stepped out in town to attend the screening of ‘Sitaare Zameen Par’ and made heads turn in a black and golden Banarasi drape. Collaborating with her favourite designer, Manish Malhotra, she decked herself out in a black and gold striped Banarasi saree featuring an intricate woven border and elegantly wrapped the pallu around her back frame. Pairing it with a classic full-sleeved blouse, she generously glowed, proving she’s an evergreen fashion figure.

Timeless earthy tones for the run

Bold and out there in earthy tones, she incorporated the metallic trend in chocolate brown hues and gave us a signature dressing moment. Holding tight to upskilling the weaver community, she chose a tissue silk saree and carried a bold stark that showed off her fashion prowess. Teaming this iconic drape with a bright golden elbow-length blouse proved to be an icon before the word icon acquired its meaning.

Glamorous in pink

Bringing a feminine hue into her wardrobe, she’s seen in bold pinks to soft ones, which is no less than a masterpiece. Picking our favourite drape from her wardrobe has to be this Manish Malhotra creation. She looked breathtaking in a rose-pink Banarasi saree, adorned with gold and silver motifs that added a hint of luminous touch to her iconic silhouette. To enhance her overall appearance, she teamed it with a deeper rose-pink, full-sleeved blouse and looked absolutely ethereal and timeless.
