Summary
- Actress Dia Mirza champions sustainable fashion with artisanal ensembles.
- She wore an exquisite Shibori 'Rhizo' saree inspired by plant roots.
- The saree featured earth-toned shades reflecting natural elements.
Actress Dia Mirza has once again made a statement in favour of sustainable fashion, opting for an artisanal Shibori saree for her latest appearance. The exquisite brown saree, from the New Delhi-based brand Studio Medium, is a testament to her preference for natural fabrics and honest craftsmanship.
The 'Rhizo' saree, named after the Greek word for 'root,' features a unique Shibori dyeing technique that mimics the appearance of subterranean plant roots. This detailing not only adds a significant aesthetic dimension but also draws attention to traditional textile artistry.
Complementing the saree's botanical theme, the pallu is embellished with root-like tassel motifs. The color palette is inspired by nature, incorporating shades of clay, greening sprout, mineral peach, sand, and ivory, reflecting the earth's natural hues. Dia Mirza's chosen muted warm brown hue, streaked like bark, added to its organic charm.
Her accessories included a sculptural choker and matching earrings from Silverstreak, alongside a delicate nose pin. Her makeup remained subtle with a bright base, softly defined eyes, and natural lips, while her hair was styled in loose waves. Shibori itself is a traditional Japanese resist-dyeing technique involving folding, twisting, or binding fabric before dyeing to create intricate patterns.
