How Rekha Turned Christmas Style Into A Lesson In Indian Opulence
How Rekha Turned Christmas Style Into A Lesson In Indian Opulence
In a season dominated by novelty knits and predictable sparkle, Rekha chose refinement over repetition. Her Christmas appearance served as a quiet reminder that festive dressing doesn't need reinvention, it needs intention. With a look steeped in Indian heritage and elevated by thoughtful styling, the veteran actor once again reaffirmed her status as fashion's eternal muse.
Shared by designer Manish Malhotra, the images captured Rekha in an ensemble that balanced seasonal richness with timeless grace. Rather than leaning into Western holiday cliches, she embraced a distinctly Indian interpretation of celebration – one that felt regal, composed, and deeply personal.
A post shared by Manish Malhotra (@manishmalhotra05)
At the heart of Rekha's festive look was a richly constructed burgundy velvet tunic. Velvet, long associated with winter luxury, brought depth and warmth to the silhouette, its plush texture lending a sense of ceremonial elegance. Structured yet fluid, the tunic felt both stately and contemporary, proving the fabric's enduring relevance in modern festive wardrobes.
The choice of velvet wasn't just seasonal; it was symbolic. In deep wine tones, it evoked nostalgia while remaining strikingly current.
Rekha elevated the ensemble further by pairing the velvet tunic with a satin saree in a brighter scarlet hue. The interplay of tones – burgundy, wine, and vibrant red – created a layered monochrome effect that felt rich without being overwhelming. The contrast between the matte weight of velvet and the luminous flow of satin added movement and visual interest, transforming a classic drape into a statement.
This thoughtful blending of textures and tones showcased how tradition can evolve without losing its soul.
Staying true to her maximalist sensibility, Rekha adorned herself with antique gold jewellery: stacked bangles, bold necklaces, and statement pieces that stood out against the deep reds. The accessories didn't compete with the outfit, but they completed it. A velvet potli bag with tasselled drawstrings echoed the ensemble's colour story, while oversized tinted sunglasses and a thick velvet headband introduced a subtle retro edge. The nod to 70s glamour felt deliberate, adding a playful modernity to an otherwise classic aesthetic.

No Rekha appearance is complete without her signature glam cues. Her sindoor, glowing complexion, and impeccably arched brows remained central to the look. A bold red lip captured the festive spirit, complemented by softly bronzed, smoky eyes that enhanced her expressive gaze.
At 71, Rekha continues to redefine what festive fashion can look like.
