The high-profile wedding of entrepreneur and internet influencer Anshula Kapoor became a magnificent display of Indian haute couture, especially for her sisters who served as the structural fashion backbone of the celebrations. While Janhvi, Khushi, and Rhea Kapoor are known for distinct individual styles, they established a unified front by trusting a single designer to define their main wedding looks: Anamika Khanna.

From romantic hand-painted silhouettes to reimagined vintage heirlooms, each sibling interpreted the designer’s specialized craftsmanship through a deeply personalized sartorial lens.

Janhvi Kapoor: Sepia-Toned Romance

Janhvi Kapoor's look leaned into an old-world, sepia-toned romance — an ivory Anamika Khanna lehenga in sheer organza, its skirt scattered with hand-painted and embroidered florals in coral and sage that trailed down in loose, watercolour-like clusters rather than a dense repeating pattern. The blouse carried the same handwork, a heavily embroidered bodice with scalloped edges and a deep V-neckline, its floral appliqué picking up the coral tones of the skirt, while a matching dupatta with a beaded gold border completed the silhouette in a soft, trailing drape.

Janhvi Kapoor’s custom ensemble exuded old-world elegance, relying on an ivory organza lehenga characterized by soft, watercolor-like fluid drapes rather than densely packed traditional motifs.

  • The Silhouette: An ivory sheer organza skirt scattered with hand-painted and embroidered florals in soft sage green and coral pink, cascading down in asymmetrical clusters. The bodice featured a deep V-neckline with delicate scalloped edges mirroring the skirt’s floral appliqué, paired with a matching trailing dupatta outlined by a beaded gold border.
  • Styling & Jewels: To anchor the light fabric, she opted for a heavy statement choker embedded with royal green and white stones. This was paired with a regal ear chain (kaff) and stacked wrist bangles. Her glam consisted of fresh, dewy skin, a glossy neutral lip, and soft waves swept to one side to prevent blocking the intricate neckline detail.

Khushi Kapoor: Fresh, Garden-Party Elegance

Khushi Kapoor's look was a soft counterpoint to the heavier bridal ensembles of the day — a pistachio-green Anamika Khanna lehenga awash in delicate multicoloured floral embroidery, with sprays of pink, lilac, and blue blooms threaded across the skirt and dupatta over a sheer net blouse. The net sleeves and bodice, worked in the same floral thread and finished with a scalloped gold border, gave the piece a light, garden-party quality rather than the density of full zardozi work, while the pleated skirt's hem carried a heavier sequinned gold border to ground the palette.

Serving as a soft, pastel counterpoint to the more traditional wedding palettes, Khushi Kapoor’s look offered a light, ethereal energy geared toward modern luxury.

  • The Silhouette: A pistachio-green net lehenga adorned with fine, multi-colored floral threadwork spanning shades of lilac, pink, and baby blue. Instead of relying on heavy zardozi (metallic embroidery), the sheer net sleeves and blouse kept the look breezy and fresh. The pleated skirt’s hemline was weighted by a structured, heavily sequinned gold border to provide a polished drape.
  • Styling & Jewels: Adhering strictly to the pastel mood board, she accessorized with a layered necklace using light rose-and-emerald hued stones, a matching maang tikka (forehead ornament), and classic drop earrings. She completed the look with stacked kada-style bangles and a matching floral-embroidered potli bag that replicated the exact motifs of the lehenga.

Rhea Kapoor: The Upcycled Heirloom Story

Rhea Kapoor's wedding look carried a story that no amount of embroidery could replicate — an Anamika Khanna ensemble built by repurposing her mother's antique kurta and dupatta. The result was a soft, muted palette of ivory and warm gold, with the kurta's neckline worked in dense heritage embroidery in deep maroon and gold thread, while a mustard-toned dupatta with an ornate paisley border was draped loosely over one shoulder, its worn-in richness a marker of the fabric's age and history.

Renowned stylist and producer Rhea Kapoor bypassed new fabrics entirely, constructing a deeply personal wedding ensemble that focused on historical continuity and emotional depth.

  • The Silhouette: A muted ivory and warm gold custom curation built by creatively repurposing her mother’s (Sunita Kapoor) antique kurta and heritage dupatta. The neckline of the vintage kurta featured exceptionally dense, traditional gold and deep maroon embroidery.
  • Styling Details: She gracefully draped a warm, mustard-toned antique dupatta across one shoulder. The textile’s faded sheen and ornate paisley borders served as a visual marker of its age, creating a powerful look rooted in family legacy and conscious sustainable luxury.
