Sonakshi Sinha is skilled in weaving in a way that is relevant to the modern period. The actor has been quite busy promoting Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and making appearances in a lot of eye-catching occasion wear ensembles. She has been making waves with her appearance, which mimics her role in the historical drama series on Netflix, in anything from lehengas to kurtas. She recently attended an occasion wearing a stunning ebony Benarasi sari, giving the tried-and-true sari a rain check.

There has already been an Art Deco comeback in the world of fashion. Global designers have consistently embraced the times via imaginative ingenuity and opulence with boundless vitality. Ralph & Russo’s autumn/winter 2019 Paris Haute Couture Week collection, which emphasized linear patterns and a variety of maximalist embellishments, was a remarkable trip back in time. In particular, the autumn/winter 2022 runways embodied Art Deco, as seen in the shows by several designers like Erdem, Lanvin, and Saint Laurent.

The six-yard classic from Raw Mango is a stunning black shade, which is a welcome change from the bright hues typically associated with traditional Varanasi saris. The iconic “Art Deco movement of the decorative arts and architecture that originated in the 1920s and developed into a major style during the 1930s” is cited by Sanjay Garg as an influence on the sari. Often abbreviated as “style moderne,” it is a term used to describe a broad range of decorative arts, fashion, architecture, and design schemes characterized by clean lines, geometric shapes, and vibrant color schemes.

While Sinha’s sari echoed the Art Deco style, her jewelry was primarily influenced by the architecture of south Indian temples. The actress chose to wear Amrapali Jewels pieces in addition to items from Shri Paramani Jewels’ unique Heeramandi line for the series.
