Divyanka Tripathi: It’s fun to break fashion rules on Holi
In a special shoot for HT City Showstoppers, Divyanka Tripathi shares how excited she is for Holi and her go-to outfit to celebrate the festival.
Divyanka glows in a peach-pink saree with delicate sequins and floral motifs from Asha Gautam. A shimmer blouse and elegant pieces from Rubans and Vasundhara Jewelry tie the look together.
For actor Divyanka Tripathi Dahiya, Holi is associated with childhood memories — playing with colours from morning till “dead tired to lift a finger”, relishing festive delicacies, and spending the day with loved ones. “On the day of Holika Dahan, we’d visit our elders and all family members in town, and offer them Paan and home-made sweets and savouries. We would finish it off by having kadhi chawal for lunch with an extra dose of gujiyas,” she shares.
The actor, recently seen in web series The Magic Of Shiri (2024), feels that “comfort is key for Holi”: “I usually go for a breathable white kurta with denims or cotton palazzos. A pair of sunglasses and minimal accessories complete the look.”
Talk festive fashion and she is quick to pipe, “Holi is all about having fun without worrying about fashion rules.” While the classic white “makes celebrations even more vibrant”, she believes multi-coloured outfits “reflect the spirit of the festival”.
Divyanka feels that her fashion sense is a reflection of her evolving personality. “I used to lean towards classic and timeless styles, but now I experiment with different cuts, textures, and silhouettes that bring out different facets of me. I’ve always been intrigued by edgy, high-fashion statement pieces — the kind that push designers’ creative boundaries. I haven’t fully embraced them, yet. Maybe one day, I’ll take that leap,” the actor signs off.
