Bhumi Pednekar is absolutely slaying the fashion game while promoting her upcoming film, Mere Husband Ki Biwi. But this is not the first time; she has been a style icon for quite some time now. With each look, she showcases not just her style but also her fearless spirit to experiment and redefine what it means to be a fashion star. From traditional drapes to modern power suits, Pednekar’s outfits are a delightful mix of nostalgia and contemporary flair. Let’s take a closer look at some of her standout styles (although there are many) that have captured my heart and why they’re so fabulous!

Something New, Something Borrowed

One of my absolute favourites has to be when Pednekar repurposed her mom's cherished tissue silk sari. It’s like she took a trip down memory lane and brought back a piece of family history! The saree, with its soft drape and subtle golden hints, is a showstopper on its own. But what really makes this look pop is the ochre brocade corset from That Antique Piece, which adds a modern twist. I adore how the corset cinches the sari’s puffiness, making it both flattering and comfortable. And those emerald and pearl drop earrings? Total icing on the cake!

Vintage Vibes with a Modern Twist

Kicking off the promotions with flair, Pednekar embraced a bohemian vibe in a crushed silk lehenga that’s just pure joy! This piece from Abu Jani & Sandeep Khosla’s collection is all about comfort without sacrificing style. The vibrant colour and billowy fabric make it feel like a warm hug. The star of the outfit — the Rajasthani mirror work choli which felt perfectly kaleidoscopic (I can’t get enough of it!). She accessorised with enamel rings and a beaded choker—such playful details that scream fun!

The Boss Lady 

Let’s talk about power dressing! Pednekar rocked a striped power suit that radiates confidence and sass. The exaggerated shoulder pads give it that strong silhouette, while the slightly baggy fit keeps it relaxed yet chic. I love how she paired this bold look with striking red lipstick! This outfit definitely belongs on my mood board.

Why Settle for One Pallu When You Can Have Three?

In one of her most daring looks, Pednekar donned an incredible three-pallu saree by Gaurav Gupta. Seriously, who else could pull off such an unconventional design? The deep neck blouse perfectly complements the saree’s unique structure, and let’s not forget about that stunning stacked polki necklace—such a statement piece! Her generous layering of jewels from Raj Mahtani Couture Jewels adds an extra dose of glamour that I simply adore.

The Khinkhwab Moment

Pednekar’s Khinkhwab lehenga moment is nothing short of iconic! This ensemble features exquisite brocade embroidery (a speciality of Varanasi) paired with vernacular jewellery pieces from all over India. And can we talk about the choli! The Hasli blouse adorned with Bikaneri Meena and Kundan work is so intricate; it feels like wearing art!  Gold cuffs, earrings, and rings come together to create an ethereal goddess vibe that leaves everyone (and us) in awe.

An Perfectly Unusual Mix

Pednekar dazzled in an AKOK outfit — perfectly modern and chic. She paired it with stacks of gold temple jewellery that elevate the entire look into something divine. Honestly, a very surprising pairing but she has nailed it! Being a girl who loves jewellery, (I’m sure we all know it by now) this look is definitely an inspiration. Stacked jewellery, stacked handcuffs and bangles, chunky rings and paired with a slightly sequined and ruffled skirt — she has managed to balance this look that could’ve easily turned out to be very heavy and tacky.  

Bhumi Pednekar continues to inspire us with her fearless approach to fashion—each outfit tells a story and reflects her vibrant personality. And  I could add more looks and go on and on about why and how I love them all. But as of now, I can’t wait to see what she’ll wear next as she takes us along on this stylish journey!
