With the PISA Awards happening in Dubai, our newsfeeds were filled with snaps of various celebrities bringing their A-game to the red carpet. Instead of going all MET GALA with asymmetrical-futuristic gowns, most of our celebrities opted to wear sarees for the show.
For a change South Asian traditional style took the driving seat and we couldn’t be more happy.
Scroll down to see the looks and our take on them!
Sana Javed
Sana Javed opted for a deep green silk Umar Sayeed saree that was definitely a stellar look. One of our favorites from the night.
