Summary
- Pooja Hegde chose a vibrant floral saree over traditional Onam wear.

Actress Pooja Hegde recently redefined festive wear by choosing a vibrant, floral-patterned saree for Onam celebrations, deviating from the typical kasavu drape. This choice embraced the dopamine dressing trend, injecting a fun element into traditional attire. The striking six-yard piece, named Gulbahar, meaning "spring flowers," is from the brand Irrau by Samir Mantri.
Crafted from gossamer organza, the saree showcases a lively interplay of yellow, green, purple, and orange hues, adorned with a prominent floral print. Antique gold borders, sequins, pearls, and a contrasting peach-orange sleeveless blouse with a sweetheart neckline completed the ensemble. Pooja Hegde accessorized with handcrafted mixed metal jhumkas from Jaipur's Abhilasha, featuring ghungroos for an antique touch, and stacked bangles.
Her understated makeup, including nude lipstick, mascara, and a small black bindi, along with softly curled hair in a bob, perfectly balanced the colorful saree. This versatile drape offers a seamless transition from simple festival chic to a high-impact statement look, adaptable for various functions or even daytime weddings with the addition of bolder accessories.
