The Cocktail-fame star donned a rust-coloured breezy kaftan that was made of chanderi silk fabric and featured mirror work, thread and sequins hand embroidery to offset the bold ikat print.
Diana teamed it with a solid inner and a pair of straight pants.

Leaving her mid-parted soft curls open, Diana amplified the glam quotient with a dab of coral tint lipstick and dewy makeup that included kohl-lined eyes with black eyeliner streaks and filled-in eyebrows. Striking elegant poses for the camera, Diana captioned the pictures, “When the weather starts to burn, I turn to the kaftan salwar! (sic).”
The kaftan set is credited to Indian fashion label Drishti & Zahabia that boasts of luxury prêt. The ensemble originally costs ₹14,784. On the other hand, the juttis were from Golden Sunrise collection of Fizzy Goblet and were priced at ₹2,990 on their website.
Diana Penty was styled by celebrity stylist and wardrobe consultant Namita Alexander. Kaftans were worn by the Ottoman sultans and later popularised by French fashion designer Paul Poiret in the 20th century.
From street styles to hippie fashion, kaftans journeyed in mainstream western fashion and were soon adopted as a lavish ensemble or hostess gowns for casual at-home entertaining. Made of cotton, cashmere, wool or silk, kaftans are now included as a part of summer season lines, staple for tropical holiday-wear and their trendy colour palettes have extended their style genre to even modern and luxury resortwear.
