Want to stand out in sarees this Navratri 2025?

Each day of Navratri comes with a significant colour, considered sacred and pious in Hinduism. Men and women are encouraged to wear each shade, which carries different meanings and is associated with the nine forms of Maa Durga. On the first day, as we worship Goddess Shailputri, it is believed that wearing white signifies purity, peace, and new beginnings, making it the perfect choice to start Navratri. Let’s take cues from our Bollywood ladies and pick sarees that are festive, elegant, and utterly charming.

2/6

Alia Bhatt

This is a perfect look for those who love understated elegance with a sophisticated charm. Drawing inspiration from Bollywood’s current ‘it’ girl, Alia Bhatt’s white floral saree is a must-have on your list. She wore a Sabyasachi white silk saree with a blue border and floral detailing on the main bodice, paired with a deep V-neck blouse with shoulder-length sleeves. A pearl-embedded choker completed the look, making Alia look effortlessly drop-dead gorgeous.

Featuring a fluid silhouette with Tamil script and classic gold polka dots, the saree added a unique cultural touch. She teamed it with a full-sleeved matching blouse, perfectly elevating her festive style while staying true to the label’s signature details.

Blooming like a festive flower, Fatima radiated desi glam in a white silk saree adorned with mini floral charms in shades of pink and green.
