What truly caught attention was the watercolour-like print on the gown, showcasing washes of pastel green, blue, lavender, and hints of yellow that resembled an impressionist garden painting. Her makeup was simple. She donned a nude-pink lipstick, subtle shimmery eyeshadow, and a touch of blush. The actress’ hair was styled in a side-parted bun. And she kept jewellery minimal, opting for a few statement rings and dainty earrings.
