This is an unusually relaxed Monday morning which is hella suspicious given that the air is rife with rumours of a big celebrity wedding. Some might assume it to be the calm before the proverbial storm hits our desks and our Insta feed gets flooded with wedding pics. However, we will refer to it as the ‘Katrina Kaif effect,’ courtesy of her angelic fashion outing recently.
Amid anticipations about her wedding/ top-secret mission (it is what it is) with Vicky Kaushal, the actress was seen leaving her house clad in a pristine white saree last night. The paps were, of course, on the prowl and didn’t take too long to upload the pictures that went viral instantly. One look at the pics and everyone was sure that the pre-wedding festivities have already started. We, however, were fixated on Katrina’s ethereal saree and haven’t stopped thinking about it ever since.
From the soothing hue to the floaty ruffles, everything about Katrina’s gauzy saree is feeding our sartorial fantasies at the moment. The Arpita Mehta beauty has been paired with a tiny blouse embellished with silver studs and we are sure that it is going to be the touchstone for pre-wedding bridal fashion this season. Well, guess what? Along with predictions, we come prepared with the perfect curation. We see Katrina’s angelic number and raise seven more equally dreamy sarees that are going to be absolutely cop-worthy this wedding season. Scroll through:
Something White
It sounds only fair that we kick start our list with a ruffled white saree similar to what Katrina was snapped in last night. The pre-pleated fusion saree comes with an embroidered blouse featuring multi-colour thread work. We, however, suggest you ditch the blouse for something more understated and subtle in either gold or silver.
Definitely Divine
If you happen to be one of those saree wearers who shun all things pre-pleated, this pure chiffon saree by Aprudha would be our recommendation to you. The drape comes decked with golden mukaish motifs that add to its seraphic appeal.
Butternut Beauty
For those who want to steer clear of the colour white in their pre-wedding fits but still want something quite close to Katrina’s saree aesthetic, this butternut saree by Zamoraa The Label can be a good pick. We love how the flimsy fabric and generous ruffles are coming together to give it a gossamer appeal.
Pretty In Pink
When it comes to the visual, soothing appeal of the colour white, few hues can stand in the competition and soft pinks surely make the cut. Take, for instance, this georgette Banarasi beauty.
Oh My Ombre!
Evocative of fairytales, unicorns, and all things magical, pastel Ombré sarees have a natural other-worldly appeal to them and this Geroo Jaipur saree will guarantee that you look absolutely angelic at your pre-wedding festivities.
Embracing The Blues
Bubbling streams, the wide expansive ocean, and a bright blue sky happen to be some of the most magical sights known to humankind. The blue colour is the demarcator common to them all and an organza saree dipped in the hue is just what you need if you are forever smitten by the depts of clear water and sky.
Gorgeous Grey

If you are fascinated by the overcast skies, then this unique pick from Swtantra is sure to catch your attention. Grey is generally not the colour that we associate with angels or anything divine but this soft silvery organza saree will help you with a new perspective. We are waxing poetic after the intricate floral embroidery on the edge of this saree and it is definitely one of those picks that will ensure that all eyes are on you during the pre-wedding festivities.
Lastly, remember to steer clear of sharp contrasts and OTT elements if you wish to take inspiration from Katrina Kaif’s pre-wedding look. Go for flimsy, flowy fabrics in soft, pastel hues and you will be gold. Happy dressing!
