If dopamine dressing for red carpet events had a poster girl, Tamannaah Bhatia would be it. The actor lit up Instagram in a butter yellow Manish Malhotra gown that looks soothing yet statement-making. Bhatia turned heads in this fresh-off-the-runway look for the couturier’s FDCI India Couture Week 2025 outing.
The gown, cut using crushed silk, showcased a soft, custard yellow hue. Its silhouette was sculpted thanks to off-the-shoulder, plunging necklace and body-hugging frame. The bodice featured a corset-inspired structure that cinched delicately at the waist, enhanced by subtle pleating and panelling that drew the eye inward. At the waist, a thoughtfully placed ruched detail added dimension and form, almost like a knot anchoring the flow of fabric. It created a visual pause in the uninterrupted cascade of yellow, breaking the monotony and accentuating her hourglass shape.
Despite being styled with restraint, her look speaks volumes. She accessorised with nothing but a pair of diamond stud earrings to round it off. Her beauty choices followed suit, featuring glossy skin, nude lips and brushed-out waves that added to the understated allure. But a soft wash of pink shimmer on the eyes and red nails injected some contrast.
