Sequin sarees are ruling Diwali and Shaadi season: Janhvi Kapoor, Kiara Advani, and Kriti Sanon bring back the bling

Sequins are shimmering their way back into the spotlight, or perhaps, they never left at all. If last week’s Manish Malhotra Diwali bash was anything to go by, sequin sarees are having a major comeback moment this festive season! The glam factor was off the charts as stars like Janhvi Kapoor, Nora Fatehi, Kriti Sanon, Fatima Sana Shaikh, and Tamannaah Bhatia all draped themselves in sequin sarees that ranged from sleek and sultry to glitzy and glam. And let’s just say, if so many Bollywood queens are vibing with sequins, it’s a trend with staying power.

Celebs donning sequin sarees

In classic Janhvi-Nora fashion, the two showed up in almost identical sarees—talk about twinning with style! While their looks oozed retro-glam with metallic sequins catching every glimmer of light, other stars added their own twist.

Kriti and Fatima embraced sequin variations that still kept the sparkle but added a fresh flair. Clearly, sequins are no longer just about dazzle—they’re about a personal vibe and style too. And it’s the actresses who are slaying the sequin scene; fans obviously are bound to catch the sparkle bug, stepping into Diwali and shaadi season with sequins shining bright.

Kiara Advani in sequin too

Adding fuel to the sequin fever is Kiara Advani, who turned heads at the Diwali party in an exquisite Manish Malhotra number with a modern twist. Kiara wore a saree-lehenga hybrid that was a blend of traditional glam and contemporary edge. The glittery golden saree paired with a strapless velvet blouse had all eyes on her, proving that sequins aren’t confined to any one style. Kiara’s lehenga-saree combo shows that you can rock sequins in an outfit that’s both experimental and timeless.

Sequin - The Manish Malhotra vibe

The reign of sequin sarees has been brewing for a while now, with none other than the king of glam, Manish Malhotra, leading the charge. Earlier this year, Suhana Khan wore one of his iconic sequin creations to Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding festivities, solidifying the trend in high society. Malhotra’s sequin sarees have been a go-to for Bollywood’s elite, embodying his signature blend of old-school elegance with a fresh, glitzy twist. The allure of sequins lies not only in their shimmer but also in their versatility—sequins can be edgy, classic, and effortlessly chic.

Sequin saga

From cocktail parties to wedding receptions, sequin sarees are now practically a staple. Imagine a cocktail night with sequins capturing the disco lights or a wedding reception where the shimmer adds an extra pinch of glam. And don’t think twice about wearing sequins this Diwali—sequins are basically tradition with a twist at this point.

So, are sequin sarees really back? It seems like they never left. With Bollywood queens paving the way, sequins are here to rule every shaadi and Diwali party this season. So get ready to join the sparkle brigade?
