Sonam Bajwa’s soft gold anarkali is all about quiet elegance, and it works
Sonam Bajwa just knows how to make suits look easy. Not heavy, not too done up. The kind you can actually imagine wearing, sitting in, moving around in, and feeling good the whole time. That comfort always shows, and that’s probably why her suit looks never miss. This time, she wore a short Punjabi-style anarkali from AR by Rhea Kapoor’s wedding collection. And honestly, it suits her perfectly. The silhouette is classic, very North Indian at heart, but it doesn’t feel dated or stiff at all. The kurta falls nicely, not overly flared, not straight like a tube. It has just enough flow to feel graceful without turning dramatic.
The colour is doing a lot of work, but quietly. It’s a soft gold tone, warm and gentle, not flashy or loud. It catches the light in that soft, pretty way that makes you look twice. And when you notice the zardozi embroidery, that’s when you really see the effort. It’s delicate, spaced out well, and adds richness without making the outfit feel heavy or tiring. The neckline is another nice touch. It frames her face well and gives the outfit a bit of structure. The sleeves have light embroidery too, nothing excessive, just enough to keep the look balanced. Paired with matching salwar bottoms, the whole outfit stays rooted in Punjabi style, which is always a win. Her styling is where things really click. She kept it simple, no overthinking. Gold sandals that blend in, not compete. Classic jhumkis that feel like the obvious choice, but sometimes obvious is exactly right.
The purple potli is a sweet little surprise. Just a pop of colour to break the gold, without stealing attention from the suit. Small detail, but it adds personality. Her makeup and hair stick to the same relaxed vibe. Fresh skin, soft makeup, nothing heavy or sharp. Hair pulled back casually, with a few loose strands around the face. It feels natural, like she didn’t try too hard, and that’s what makes it work. What really stands out, though, is how comfortable she looks. Calm, confident, and completely at ease. That’s Sonam Bajwa’s thing. She doesn’t wear suits like they’re outfits. She wears them like they’re part of her. And this gold-toned anarkali feels exactly like that. Simple, rooted, and quietly lovely.
