GQ India reports that Radhika’s cocktail dress was designed by Yves Saint Laurent during his time at Dior. The dress, in a vibrant raspberry color, features a sophisticated fit-and-flare shape with a notable vertical bow at the waist, a signature element of Dior’s "New Look" that transformed women’s fashion by emphasizing luxury and femininity. This iconic style is characterized by its voluminous lower half and a silhouette that accentuates the female figure.
The outfit sold at auction for US$3,840 in 2016.
Radhika complemented her look with a pink Hermès mini Kelly bag and jeweled white Hangisi flats by Manolo Blahnik, merging timeless elegance with contemporary flair.
Radhika, 29, is the daughter of Shri Viren Merchant, CEO of the prominent Indian healthcare company Encore Healthcare.
