Day Six of India Couture Week 2024 saw a mesmerizing showcase of designer Gaurav Gupta’s latest collection, ‘Arunodaya’. The event was a perfect blend of elegance and innovation, captivating attendees with its luxurious fabrics and exquisite designs.
The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the appearance of Khushi Kapoor and her rumoured boyfriend, Vedang Raina, who graced the ramp as showstoppers for Gupta’s stunning collection. The chemistry between the duo was palpable as they walked the ramp, their interactions hinting at a deeper connection and adding a romantic touch to the evening.
Khushi Kapoor and Vedang Raina recently made their debut together in Zoya Akhtar’s Indian adaptation of Archie Comics on Netflix, where they played the roles of Betty Cooper and Reggie Mantle, respectively. The film also starred Suhana Khan, Agastya Nanda, Mihir Ahuja, Yuvraj Menda, and Dot, among others.
Khushi dazzled in a glittering silver lehenga, paired with a bead-embellished blouse featuring flowing cape-style sleeves. Her high-waisted, fit-and-flare lehenga was adorned with geometric patterns and swirling stones. She completed her look with a multi-layered choker necklace, voluminous waves, and neutral-toned makeup.
Vedang complemented Kapoor’s look by wearing a sophisticated sherwani with a high neckline and long sleeves. His outfit, adorned with shimmering black beadwork, was paired with black trousers and brogues, making for a striking ensemble.
Gaurav Gupta’s ‘Arunodaya’ collection, which means ‘dawn’ in Sanskrit, symbolizes hope and new beginnings. Each outfit in the collection embodied this theme, reflecting the beauty of a fresh start. The collection’s intricate designs and luxurious fabrics showcased Gupta’s masterful craftsmanship, leaving a lasting impression on the audience.
India Couture Week 2024, which kicked off on July 24, has been a spectacle of fashion and creativity. The fashion gala will conclude on July 31, with Falguni Shane Peacock set to close the event with their highly anticipated collection.
As Khushi Kapoor and Vedang Raina continue to captivate audiences both on and off the ramp, their future in the fashion and film industries looks incredibly promising. Their appearance at Gaurav Gupta’s show not only highlighted their chemistry but also set a new standard for elegance and style at this year’s India Couture Week.
