Radhika Ambani Makes A Powerful Style Statement While Hosting Queen Rania
Fashion is not only about wearing expensive clothes. It is about meaning, culture, and storytelling.
By: Priya Chowdhary Nuthalapti | 23 Feb 2026 12:48 PM ISTFashion is not only about wearing expensive clothes. It is about meaning, culture, and storytelling. This idea was beautifully shown by Radhika Ambani during a special gathering in Mumbai hosted by the Ambani family for Queen Rania. Radhika’s look stood out for blending Indian traditions with global luxury in a graceful way.
Styled by Rhea Kapoor, Radhika wore a rare haute couture outfit from Chanel, inspired by the brand’s famous Paris–Bombay Métiers d’Art era. Haute couture is known for its detailed handwork, custom fitting, and long hours of craftsmanship. Every piece is made especially for the wearer, making it truly one of a kind.
The base of Radhika’s outfit was a satin couture ensemble with clean tailoring and a soft shine. What made it special was the dhoti-style skirt, which added an Indian touch without looking heavy or traditional. Over this, she wore a textured tweed coat draped over her shoulders. The coat featured delicate pearl detailing, a signature element of Chanel that represents elegance and timeless beauty.
Small details added deeper meaning to the look. Navratna-style buttons brought cultural and astrological symbolism, while pearl work by Amrapali Jewels highlighted Indian craftsmanship. Radhika completed her outfit with custom Chanel shoes and an Anamika Khanna bag, creating a perfect balance between Parisian fashion and Indian heritage.
The Paris Bombay collection was originally created under Karl Lagerfeld. Even though he never visited India, his designs imagined a world where Indian culture and Western couture could exist together respectfully. This collection remains an important reference in global fashion even today.
While Radhika represented modern cultural fusion, Queen Rania looked elegant in a structured white top paired with a richly detailed skirt. Nita Ambani, in her ivory saree and pearls, reflected timeless Indian grace.
