Priyanka’s traditional red Karwa Chauth look
For the occasion, Priyanka wore a sindoori red kurta set featuring a sleeveless design and an organza dupatta. Gold lace embroidery, sequin embellishments and appliqué detailing added a festive finish to the outfit.
She completed the look with gold Kundan jewellery, including a haath phool, pearl-adorned jhumka earrings and rings, alongside a statement watch.
Priyanka wore her hair loose in a centre parting, styled in soft waves. Her makeup featured a classic red lip, rouged cheeks, mascara-coated lashes, feathered brows and a dewy base. A red bindi and sindoor completed the traditional look.
Karwa Chauth is observed by many married Hindu women who fast from sunrise until moonrise, praying for their husbands’ well-being and longevity. Priyanka’s posts combined the festival’s traditional elements with intimate family moments and a handmade expression of affection.
