Let’s take a look at the times when designer Rahul Mishra has dressed an international celebrity and decode their looks.
Selena Gomez stole the spotlight as she graced the red carpet at the Rare Impact Fund Benefit Gala in a breathtaking Rahul Mishra creation. The multi-hyphenate star transcended into a living work of couture art for the event held in Los Angeles.
Her choice for the gala was an exceptional one — an exclusively tailored amethyst purple ‘Iris’ dress from Rahul Mishra’s enchanting Couture Fall 2023 collection. This mini masterpiece boasted an off-shoulder neckline and intricate hand embroidery that masterfully imitated the fragile petals of an iris.
What truly sets this meticulously crafted garment apart is its 18 petals adorned with a breathtaking array of resham, chenille thread, sequins, glass beads, bugle beads, badla, and silver zari. Notably, the dress carries a motif paying homage to Munir Ahmed, a devoted member of Rahul Mishra’s team for more than a decade.
Selena’s choice to keep accessories to a minimum was a wise one, allowing the dress to speak volumes on its own. She effortlessly paired it with metallic lilac strappy heels and elegant silver geometric earrings. Her sleek centre-parted hairdo, combined with glamorous makeup featuring nude eyeshadow, winged eyeliner, mascara-laden eyes, and a glossy lipstick, added the finishing touches to an already breathtaking look.
This isn’t the first time Rahul Mishra has dressed an international celebrity with his designs. In the past, his creations have adorned the likes of Zendaya, Poorna Jagannathan, Emma Chamberlain, Gigi Hadid, and many more.
Zendaya stunned at the NMACC gala in a hand-embroidered ‘Verdure’ sari gown, complemented by the ‘Flying Cranes’ bralette, a unique creation by Mishra. Gigi Hadid, on the other hand, turned heads in a ‘Himachal’ trench coat paired with matching trousers and a bralette during the NMACC launch.
Meanwhile, Poorna Jagannathan exuded elegance in a 3D hand-embroidered Cosmos ‘water waves’ sequin-embellished off-shoulder gown from the designer’s collection. Emma Chamberlain dazzled in a custom 3D hand-embroidered ‘Medinilla’ halter dress, showcasing Rahul Mishra’s artistry once again.
