Reliance Foundation chairperson Nita Ambani was honoured with the prestigious Kalinga Institute of Social Sciences (KISS) Humanitarian Award 2025 at the KIIT University in Bhubaneswar, Odisha. For the occasion, Nita chose a simple saree. Let’s decode her look.
What did Nita Ambani wear?
For the special occasion, Nita Ambani chose a simple, deep maroon saree decked with intricate block patterns inspired by nature and done in a light beige shade. Furthermore, a contrasting green border enhanced the beauty of the silk drape.
Nita wore the six yards in traditional style, letting the pallu elegantly fall from her shoulder to a floor-grazing length, with pleats folded on the front. She paired the saree with a matching deep maroon silk blouse featuring a boat neckline, half-length sleeves with a green trim, a tailored fit, and a cropped hem length.
Known for her incredible sarees and a priceless collection of exquisite jewels, Nita chose to ditch any standout accessories in favour of a minimal yet striking look for the occasion. She only wore a pair of floral-inspired ruby and diamond earrings, a statement ring with a boulder-sized centrestones, green bangles, and a gold beaded necklace.
With her hair tied in a centre-parted, sleek bun decorated with flowers, she chose kohl-lined eyes, winged eyeliner, darkened brows, a dainty maroon bindi, mascara-coated lashes, glossy mauve lip shade, blush-tinted cheeks, and a glowing base for the glam picks.
