Heeramandi (2024) on Netflix has won the fashion game with bespoke and opulent looks that reflect the elite status of courtesans back in the 1920s – think jewel tones, embellished garments, and heavy jewellery. Not just the show, the cast has been turning up to promotional events in equally mesmerising outfits that have won over many across the globe (and me). These outfits capture the royal feel and regal vibe of the show while being wearable and easy to recreate.
Whether you’re attending a wedding or planning your outfits for festivals and parties, you cannot miss out on these luxurious and grand outfits. So, let’s dive right in and bask in the glory of these intricate ensembles. This curation includes something for everyone – from plush salwar suits and anarkalis for those who love comfy styles to sarees and lehengas for the dramatic queens. Scroll on!
1. Luxurious Velvet
This plush velvet suit exudes regal elegance and is great for any special occasion. From the gorgeous shade to the intricate metallic work, this look spotted on Sonakshi Sinha will truly make you feel like royalty. Recreate it with a similar kurta, pants, and dupatta set with zari work from Ishin – a brand that has received a stamp of approval from Bhumi Pednekar. Wear it with the House of Vian gold embellished juttis that have received high praise from reviewers for their comfort and quality.

2. Stunning Jewels
Jewellery is just as big a part of the Heeramandi aesthetic as the clothes and Manisha Koirala proves that with this look. The green suit with red dupatta paired with the beautifully intricate hathphool and earrings is the only inspo you need to be ✨ extra ✨ and live your ‘main character’ dreams. We recommend the chaandbalis from Riana Jewellery that have been spotted on Tamannaah Bhatia, Kriti Sanon, Deepika Padukone, and many other celebs. Handmade by artisans, the hathphool from Kiara is also the perfect choice for this look.
