NANDINI BHALLA Over the past few weeks, while contemplating the surreal year we are bidding goodbye to, I have posed the same question to several people: what is the one thing 2020 taught you? And each one of the friends, family, and colleagues I spoke with, came back with a surprisingly similar response: ‘The importance of meaningful connections’. At Brides Today, we have often spoken about the importance and beauty of deep, authentic connections. And as weddings become more intimate in these times, the joy of togetherness takes on even greater significance. It is in this same spirit that we have created this issue of Brides Today. Generously sprinkled with exquisite outfits to make you feel and look your best; striking jewellery to be cherished forever; and a healthy dose…

Growing up, Diana Penty wasn’t comfortable being in the spotlight. She was an awkward teenager, who did not meet the so-called standards of ‘ideal’ beauty: some said she was ‘too thin’ or ‘too tall’. Little did she know that she would go on to become a celebrity, one day. Since then, the actor—who made her debut with Cocktail in 2012—has long shed her inhibitions. Diana is now a versatile actor, with a varied repertoire—from the rebellious protagonist in Happy Bhag Jayegi to the security expert in the spy thriller Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran, among others. Even off-screen, Diana isn’t someone to be dictated by stereotypes. When Covid-19 confined everyone to the indoors, the 35-year-old joined hands with the Khaki Project to support police officers in Mumbai working on the…
IRA DUBEY ACTOR “My mom [actor Lillette Dubey] has always had an eclectic and experimental style. She wears the sari in a traditional, classic way and that has inspired my style of draping the sari, too,” the actor shares with us. That said, Ira enjoys adding an extra element to her look to make it relevant to the times, with silver jewellery and experimental blouse patterns. “The sari blouse can change the entire look, in my opinion,” she adds. For this sari essay, the actor is wearing her mother’s sari that is over a decade old, and also her favourite blouse. Ira has paired these with her sister’s vintage jewellery. “Mom has a gorgeous sari collection, and she often purchases one during her travels. I have had my eye on…
JJ VALAYA “I have admired Tripti’s great presence in cinema, and it was on my mind that we should shoot together someday. I trusted my muse and my stylists implicitly, while I was the designer of the clothes as well as the photographer. There was a seamless sense of teamwork. I like contradiction and what it tosses up. The Royal Nomad (with a penchant for Art Deco) has been the brand’s ethos for nearly three decades now. The two words, royal and nomad, are opposites, yet piecing together their key flavours in our signature style invariably leads to truly interesting looks. I was born in Jodhpur, Rajasthan…a land known for its resplendent monarchy as well as its banjaras (nomads), and I often wonder whether some mystical auras of the two…
