THE REWEAR SERIES
IRA DUBEY
ACTOR
“My mom [actor Lillette Dubey] has always had an eclectic and experimental style. She wears the sari in a traditional, classic way and that has inspired my style of draping the sari, too,” the actor shares with us.
That said, Ira enjoys adding an extra element to her look to make it relevant to the times, with silver jewellery and experimental blouse patterns. “The sari blouse can change the entire look, in my opinion,” she adds.
For this sari essay, the actor is wearing her mother’s sari that is over a decade old, and also her favourite blouse. Ira has paired these with her sister’s vintage jewellery. “Mom has a gorgeous sari collection, and she often purchases one during her travels. I have had my eye on this particular piece for a while, now. It has just the right amount of subtle shimmer and a bit of quirk with the polka-dotted border,” she reveals.
Over the years, Ira has worn this piece for a number of occasions, and last took it out for her mother’s stage.
