If there is one name currently dominating the Bollywood fashion charts, it is undoubtedly Janhvi Kapoor. From red carpet premieres to intimate family weddings, the Param Sundari star has carved a niche for herself that perfectly balances Gen-Z trends with timeless Indian heritage. Whether she is raiding her late mother’s legendary wardrobe or playing muse to the country’s top couturiers, Janhvi knows exactly how to make a sartorial statement that breaks the internet.
Her style evolution has been nothing short of spectacular. She moves effortlessly between maximalist bridal couture and chic, sustainable vintage layering. In this roundup, we are diving deep into eight of her most iconic recent appearances. These are the outfits that flooded our feeds, set new wedding trends, and proved that Janhvi is the ultimate fashion girl of her generation.
Here is a closer look at the viral fashion moments we still can’t get over.
1. The Crimson and Gold “Royal Symphony”
Janhvi kicked off the wedding season with a look that screamed regality, stepping out in a traditional saree by Vastra by PS. The saree itself was a vision of soft, textured sheen, elevated by a “hand-embroidered symphony” of gold and crimson, but the real showstopper was the contrasting crimson blouse heavily detailed with handwoven golden threadwork and peacock motifs. To match the royal vibe without looking cluttered, she accessorized with a statement heavy choker, matching chandbalis, and a curated stack of kadas, finishing the look with a highly detailed potli bag that perfectly mirrored her blouse’s intricate motifs.
2. The Maximalist Cobalt-Blue Patola
For a friend’s Mehendi ceremony in Udaipur, Janhvi ditched typical greens for a striking custom cobalt-blue Patola lehenga by Jigya Patel. The silhouette featured a traditional A-line kalidar design with crisp box pleats, reimagined with intricate threadwork and shimmering embellishments on a rich silk base. What made this look go viral was the dual-dupatta styling: a primary blue Patola piece with metallic coin borders and a contrasting pink dupatta with botanical embroidery. She completed this maximalist dream with an antique silver set from Tribe Amrapali and a unique silver box purse.
3. The Heirloom Tribute: Sridevi’s Pashmina Saree
Fashion became deeply emotional at the Mumbai premiere of Homebound when Janhvi wore an iconic royal blue and black Manish Malhotra pashmina designer saree that originally belonged to her mother, the legendary Sridevi. The saree, featuring intricate gold tilla embroidery and Kashmiri Chinar motifs, was paired with a black velvet blouse to mirror her mother’s original 2017 styling. This poignant appearance, celebrating the film’s selection as India’s Oscar entry, was accessorized with a diamond and pearl necklace and Polki diamond earrings, allowing the heirloom drape to remain the focal point of the historic night.
4. Vintage Layering at TIFF
Taking her style global, Janhvi stunned at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival in a custom Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla outfit that masterfully blended modern silhouettes with vintage textiles. She wore a pure chiffon Resham saree hand-embroidered with autumnal silk threads, layered uniquely with an upcycled vintage men’s Jamavar jacket from the 1980s and an antique shawl edged with handmade silk tassels. To complement the Kashmiri aesthetic, she added silver earrings inspired by the traditional dejhur ornament and a custom chabi ka gucha (keychain) at her waist, bringing old-world Indian charm to the international red carpet.
5. The “Jewellery” Blouse and Mulmul Skirt
During Param Sundari promotions, Janhvi gave us a lesson in comfortable glamour with a custom ivory and gold lehenga set by Anita Dongre. The highlight was the sleeveless, sheer golden choli, intricately hand-embroidered with zardozi and crystals to look like jewellery stitched directly onto the skin, eliminating the need for a heavy necklace. She balanced this ornate piece with a flowing, breathable crushed mulmul skirt edged with gold bands and skipped the dupatta entirely, finishing the look with a layered Swarna necklace and a red bindi for a traditional touch.
6. The 3D “Real Flower” Saree
Perhaps the most experimental look on this list, Janhvi’s custom Ojaswini Bela Saree by Torani broke the internet for its “floral-core” aesthetic. The soft pink saree featured a delicate ivory floral jaal overlay, but the true marvel was the pallu, handcrafted from wax flowers to resemble a Tagar Ki Chaadar (floral canopy) for a 3D effect. She paired this art piece with a matching pink bralette and kept accessories minimal with a large diamond flower-shaped ring and pearl-drop earrings, allowing the intricate craftsmanship of the “real flowers” to take center stage.
7. The Crimson Bridal Masterpiece
Janhvi turned into the ultimate modern bride in the “Tenu Takdi Ravah” lehenga from Masaba Gupta’s bridal collection. This deep crimson masterpiece featured a rich interplay of red shades and tissue patchwork, adorned with shimmery hand-embroidered motifs inspired by nature, paired with a butterfly-hem blouse woven with gold thread. The look was completed with a matching red veil featuring Masaba’s signature “Pankh Bagh” motifs and styled with chunky floral studs and flower-themed kaleeras, setting the perfect template for the upcoming wedding season.
8. The Mermaid-Cut Pearl Bustier
Closing our list is the breathtaking pastel pink lehenga saree by Jayanti Reddy, showcased at the Hyundai India Couture Week 2025. This modern reimagining of the saree featured a fish-cut silhouette on a delicate net base with heavy zardozi embroidery, but the sculpted bustier blouse stole the show with its plunging neckline and cascading pearl chain sleeves. A soft net dupatta trailed behind her as she walked, and she styled the outfit with a statement floral choker by Kishandas & Co., perfectly blending contemporary glamour with traditional opulence.
Janhvi’s Influence on Modern Indian Fashion
Janhvi Kapoor’s recent fashion run proves that she is more than just a participant in trends; she is a tastemaker. Whether she is upcycling vintage menswear for a red carpet or wearing wax flowers on a saree, she constantly pushes the boundaries of what Indian ethnic wear can look like. Her ability to switch between heavy, heritage-rich textiles and breezy, modern silhouettes makes her style accessible and aspirational. As we look forward to her next appearances, one thing is certain: Janhvi Kapoor is the fashion icon we didn’t know we needed, but now can’t live without.
