Keerthy Suresh’s bridal outfit showcases Juliette sleeves as a rising trend, inspiring Khushi, Alia, and Rashmika to adopt the style.
The term ‘retro’ now seems more and more misnomer as it keeps making brilliant comebacks in the world of fashion. One bright example of this revival is the Juliette sleeve, now commonly recognized as ‘puff sleeves.’ Even if the demure look of the 60s is not your thing, some volume at the shoulders does the trick to take one back into nostalgia with a modern touch.
On that note, Keerthy Suresh’s wedding attire perfectly reflected the traditional elegance with hints of contemporary influences. Whether or not her choice of the Juliette sleeves blouse is also a quiet endorsement of this retro revival remains to be seen; however, we certainly think so. Let’s take a look at the trend through some lovely celebrity moments.
Keerthy Suresh:
Let’s start with the bride of the moment, Keerthy. The actor from Baby John shared the wedding pictures earlier today and featured her in exquisite traditional South Indian silks. She sported a rich crimson saree with silver embroidery and a vibrant canary yellow saree edged with gold-accented parrot green. Her blouse for the latter, with structured and voluminous Juliette sleeves, stole almost as much attention as the joy that seemed to be radiating from the newlyweds. Brides-to-be, take heed!
Khushi Kapoor
Khushi Kapoor made waves earlier this month when she attended her best friend Aaliyah Kashyap’s mehndi ceremony. She wore a Tarun Tahiliani saree draped in embroidered muted rani pink. Her blouse stole the show with intricate beading, dori-fastening, and an eye-catching open-back design. It was, however, the dramatic Juliette sleeves that balanced the bold look beautifully.
Rashmika Mandanna
Rashmika Mandanna continues to dominate both screens and fashion. Her iconic Srivalli look in Pushpa featured a simple linen saree paired with a canary green blouse, complete with subtle puffed sleeves. The sequel upped the ante, showcasing a more elaborate and glamorous take on the style, proving the versatility of Juliette sleeves.
Alia Bhatt
We see a return of Alia Bhatt’s perfect Bengali-inspired attire from Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. A red and gold-dotted saree drape for the song Dhindora Baaje Re had the richly Juliette sleeve blouse adding an all royalty as she performed, hand-in-hand with Ranveer Singh.
Get ready to add your wardrobe a little retro flavor with these iconic sleeves. Juliette is back; it’s about time to make it yours!
