Aditi Rao Hydari and Siddharth Shine at Couture Week 2026
A Grand Finale at FDCI Hyundai India Couture Week
On Tuesday, Aditi Rao Hydari and Siddharth made a stunning appearance as they walked the ramp for designer Jayanti Reddy, concluding her showcase at the FDCI Hyundai India Couture Week 2026 in New Delhi. The couple showcased Reddy's collection titled 'The Gilded Era,' which pays homage to the rich heritage of Hyderabad and the intricate embroidery styles from the Nizami era.
Aditi dazzled in a peplum bodice featuring gold and beige hues, paired with a sharara adorned with zardozi embroidery, beads, and sequins. She completed her look with a choker and sleek, straight hair. Siddharth complemented her in an unbuttoned, heavily embroidered beige sherwani jacket layered over dhoti-style trousers, accessorized with a multi-layered pearl and emerald necklace. Reddy herself joined them on stage, wearing a sheer embroidered top with tailored white trousers, as the trio posed beneath the illuminated archways of the venue.
In another highlight, Vaani Kapoor took center stage as the showstopper for designer Dolly J, presenting her collection 'BRĀHM,' inspired by the dynamic landscapes and light of the Himalayas. Kapoor wore a burgundy lehenga featuring an off-shoulder blouse with a sweetheart neckline, embellished with crystal embroidery and beadwork. The high-waisted skirt, which included a daring thigh-high slit, matched the intricate embroidery. She opted for minimal jewelry, sporting diamond drop earrings and cocktail rings, while her hair was styled in soft waves with a bronzed, dewy makeup look.
Dolly J's collection was a vibrant exploration of colors reflecting the Himalayas throughout the day, featuring shades like crimson, antique gold, ivory, silver, and copper, with each outfit designed to evoke a specific time from dawn to dusk.
Both showcases have emerged as memorable highlights of the week, as designers embraced traditional craftsmanship and silhouettes while featuring well-known personalities from the Hindi film industry.
