The Fiery Red Moment
If there’s one colour that’ll forever be that girl at weddings, it’s red. Tabu’s red look reminds us why the shade never goes out of style. It’s confident, bold and oh-so-regal. Opt for a red outfit with simple accessories because the colour alone does the talking. Whether you’re attending a cocktail or sangeet, this guest outfit says, “Yes, I came to celebrate, but also yes, I look fabulous doing it.”

The Serene Ivory Glow
This look screams understated glam. Think of an ivory or cream saree that lets your personality shine instead of the embellishments doing all the talking. The actress’s love for soft neutrals proves you don’t have to be drenched in sequins to make an impact. Add a hint of gold jewellery and a sleek bun, and you’re golden, literally. Perfect for a daytime function where you want to look elegant without sweating under ten kilos of embroidery.
The Midnight Muse
Black at weddings? The queen says yes, unapologetically. Her black ensembles are the definition of cool-meets-classy. A sleek black saree or a minimalist gown works wonders for evening functions. The trick? Let texture and silhouette be your statement. Keep the jewellery minimal, maybe just bold earrings or a statement ring. You’ll give “mysterious yet approachable” energy that every wedding guest secretly wants to channel.
The Golden Hour Glam
This look radiates celebration. Inspired by Tabu’s gold-toned outfits, it’s the perfect pick for pre-wedding events like mehendi or sundowner soirees. A gold or mustard outfit instantly brightens your look and photographs beautifully in natural light. Pair it with soft curls. Dewy makeup and delicate accessories. You’ll look like you belong in that perfect sunset selfie.

The Regal Emerald Vibe
There’s something about jewel tones that screams sophistication, and she knows it. An emerald or deep green outfit gives major “I woke up and chose luxury” energy. This hue flatters every skin tone and looks incredible under both natural and artificial lighting. Think flowy silhouettes, subtle shimmer and confidence that’s quietly loud. Because who said a guest outfit can’t feel like royalty?
The Floral Feminine Gown
Sometimes, simplicity hits harder than sparkle. Tabu’s floral-inspired look is your sign to embrace soft prints, flowy fabrics and light makeup for a breezy day wedding. A flowy gown instantly adds charm without trying too hard. It’s romantic, airy and just the right amount of traditional, perfect for when you want to look dressed up but still comfortable enough to dance your heart out.
The Draped Diva
This one’s for the reception night when you want to make jaws drop. Tabu’s draped saree look gives us major “main character” energy. Go for something bold yet structured, maybe a pre-draped saree, a statement gown or even a fusion outfit with a cape. Add a deep lip, statement earrings and that calm confidence she’s famous for. Trust me, you won’t just enter the venue, you’ll arrive with a spotlight shining down on you.
