"A Fairytale Come to Life - Radhika Merchant wears Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla for her wedding ceremony to Anant Ambani. Wearing the family jewels her nani, mom, and sister wore to their weddings.

Radhika’s ensemble is Abu Sandeep’s intricate interpretation of ‘Panetar’ - the Gujarati tradition of brides wearing red and white. The ivory Zardozi cut-work ensemble consists of a trailing ghagra layered with a second detachable trail, a 5-meter head veil, and a tissue shoulder dupatta.

The ghagra glitters with three borders of red, its workmanship the finest amalgamation of Naqshi, Saadi, and Zardozi, symmetrically hand-embroidered in intricate floral booties lavishly decorated with stones, sequins, tamba tikkis, and a touch of red Resham. The head veil has impossibly delicate jaali and cut-work while the detachable trail is a Zardozi marvel of 80 inches. The outfit is complete with a fully embroidered red shoulder dupatta that uplifts the silhouette with its maximal drama."
