The ever-iconic star has cemented herself as one of the most stylish actors. Be it her personal style or the ensembles she wears on the red carpet, each look is a masterclass in ultra-luxe elegance. This time, for The Odyssey premiere, Dimple slipped into an all-black look featuring a long coat, waistcoat, and a sarong skirt.

Dimple Kapadia's pictures in the Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla attire were shared by the label on Instagram on July 11. Sharing the details of the look, the designers wrote, “She wears a black chamois ‘Godart’ Coat adorned with hand-embroidered Bandhani motifs. Accentuated with power shoulders, it features a feast of multicoloured Resham hand-embroidery, enhanced with Zardozi highlights.”

Dimple paired the coat with a black quilted waistcoat and a sarong skirt. Handcrafted Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla jewellery completes her look, creating a vision of handcrafted splendour. Her oversized, ‘Talismati’ eye pendant necklace is made with blazing rubies and pavé set diamonds. Crafted in gold, it also symbolises Shiva’s third eye, the designers revealed.

Dimple also wears ‘Taweez’ inspired hoop earrings, which reportedly celebrate divine protection with detailed craftsmanship. Complementing golden bangles inspired by the same concept adds the final touch of radiance to her ensemble.

Meanwhile, for her hair, she styled it in her iconic side-parted blowout that softly framed her face. The glam, featuring darkened brows, kohl-lined eyes, a pink lip shade, rouged cheeks, and mascara-coated lashes, added a finishing touch.

How did the internet react?

The internet could not stop gushing over the actor's handcrafted look. They showered Dimple and the designers with praise in the comments section. A fan commented, “She is our 90s supermodel, Cindy Crawford.” Someone else wrote, “An icon.”

Another said, “That blow-dry has been the same for 50 years.” A fan wrote, “If I don’t look like this at 70, screw it.” Another commented, “If oomph had a face. Her personal style is impeccable.”

One Instagram user loved the contemporary look and wrote, “Love how Bandhani is used in such a contemporary way. Always wonderful to see our heritage reimagined in fresh ways.” Someone else commented, “She’s my Deborah Vance.”
