What did Isha Ambani wear in Venice?

Isha Ambani picked a tailored white shirt for the occasion. The cotton poplin blouse features a collared neckline, front button closures, puffed full-length sleeves, and a custom-fit tailoring complementing her frame. She styled it with a banarasi silk skirt in a chic deep green shade, featuring gold brocade embroidery, an above-the-ankle hem, a back slit, and a high waistline.

Isha accessorised the look with family jewels, including statement rings and diamond-encrusted flower-shaped earrings. She rounded off the look with a pair of stilettos. Lastly, centre-parted loose tresses and minimal makeup, including feathered brows, a glossy pink lip shade, mascara-coated lashes, rouge-tinted cheeks, and soft contouring, gave the finishing touch.
