Malaika Arora's saree look decoded

Malaika's lime-coloured Banarasi silk saree features broad gota patti borders adorned with gold leaf patterns and sequin embellishments, gold brocade embroidery in floral design, and a broad embroidered pallu. She wore the six yards by pleating it neatly on the front and letting the pallu fall from the shoulder in a floor-sweeping length.

Malaika matched the saree with a lime-coloured sleeveless silk blouse featuring a plunging V neckline, a fitted bust, and a cropped silhouette. She accessorised the drape with dangling earrings, a matching bracelet, a choker necklace, and high heels.

Lastly, she chose side-parted open wavy locks, shimmering gold eye shadow, heavy mascara on the lashes, coral red lip shade, darkened brows, rouged cheekbones, and beaming highlighter to round off the glam picks.
