At Dubai Fashion Week, Kriti Sanon dazzled as showstopper for Manish Malhotra’s collection ‘Inaya – The India Story’, blending Indian elegance with global fashion.
A Grand Showcase of Indian Fashion in Dubai
The latest edition of Dubai Fashion Week witnessed a standout moment on Friday evening when Bollywood actor Kriti Sanon walked the ramp as the showstopper for renowned designer Manish Malhotra. The show, held at a premium fashion venue in Dubai, drew the attention of international buyers, fashion critics and members of the Indian diaspora.
Theme of ‘Inaya – The India Story’
Manish Malhotra’s latest collection, titled Inaya – The India Story, was inspired by India’s rich cultural heritage and traditional craftsmanship, presented through contemporary silhouettes. The collection featured intricate embroidery, detailed handwork and Indo-western designs aimed at appealing to a global audience while staying rooted in Indian aesthetics.
Why Kriti Sanon’s Ramp Look Stood Out
Kriti Sanon wore an ivory-toned Indo-western ensemble featuring a high-waisted, floor-length skirt adorned with delicate shimmering beadwork. The look was elevated by a sheer, floor-sweeping tulle cape that added a regal touch. Styled with minimal jewellery and soft makeup, her appearance perfectly aligned with the collection’s refined and elegant theme.
Reaction from Social Media and Fashion Circles
Soon after the show, images and videos of Kriti Sanon’s ramp walk flooded social media platforms. Fashion insiders praised her confident walk and the fine detailing of the outfit. Several buyers present at the venue described her appearance as the “standout moment” of the collection.
International Recognition for Manish Malhotra
During the fashion festival, Manish Malhotra was also honoured with the Designer of the Year award, underlining his global influence in fashion. Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan was present at the event, adding further prominence to the occasion. The award highlighted the growing international recognition of Indian designers.
Kriti Sanon’s Busy Professional Line-up
Alongside her fashion appearances, Kriti Sanon continues to remain in focus for her film projects. With several upcoming releases in the pipeline, she is steadily strengthening her presence not only in cinema but also in the global fashion space.
Speaking after the show, Manish Malhotra said, “The response to ‘Inaya – The India Story’ on an international platform like Dubai has been truly special. Kriti brought the soul of the collection alive on the ramp.”
Kriti Sanon’s role as showstopper at Dubai Fashion Week reflects her growing influence in the fashion world while reinforcing the strong connection between Indian cinema and global fashion platforms. Such collaborations are expected to further expand the international footprint of Indian fashion in the coming years.
