Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's wedding festivities have been a star-studded extravaganza, and the bride's attire for the Shubh Aashirwad ceremony was a true showstopper. Following the grand wedding on July 12, her first appearance as Mrs. Anant Ambani is spectacular.
Anant Ambani–Radhika Merchant Wedding: Newlywed bride exudes opulence in custom Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla red lehenga featuring 12 hand-painted panels For Radhika's special day, the renowned designer duo Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla collaborated with contemporary artist and sculptor Jayasri Burman, along with stylist Rhea Kapoor, to create a truly unique lehenga. Their vision? To translate Jayasri's artistic expression into a garment that embodied the joy and significance of the occasion. The result was a breathtaking lehenga featuring 12 hand-painted panels on a special Italian canvas.
Each panel showcased Jayasri's signature mythical aesthetic, weaving a narrative that celebrated the union of Anant and Radhika. Human figures representing the couple radiated a celestial aura, symbolizing the sanctity of their love. The fauna depicted Anant's fondness for animals, particularly elephants, considered symbols of auspiciousness and beauty.
The craftsmanship behind the lehenga was equally extraordinary. Meticulous hand embroidery in real gold Zardozi brought the artwork to life. A shimmering sea of sequins adorned the garment, highlighting the intricate details of Jayasri's creation.
The lehenga was paired with a blouse hand-embroidered entirely in Resham by the master craftsmen at Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla. Every element of the ensemble conveyed the joy of new beginnings and the promise of a life shared with the love of one's life. The collaboration itself was a testament to the harmonious relationship between art and fashion.
"Art and fashion have always been lovers," the designers stated. "One cannot exist without the other." Jayasri Burman, reflecting on the experience, expressed her delight at the creative freedom she was granted.
"Abu Sandeep are artists," she said. "The only difference is that their medium is couture while mine is canvas. Both Rhea and Abu Sandeep gave me total creative freedom and understood my essence as an artist.
I found my brush dancing all over the canvas. My only hope now is that it inspires a smile on Radhika's face and maybe someday, we'll even see it hanging on her wall!"
