Get Diwali Ready: Actors Share Their Sustainable Fashion Secrets
This Diwali, instead of rushing into the usual frenzy of shopping for new clothes,
embrace something more meaningful - reusing and restyling outfits you already
own! With fast fashion constantly taking centre stage, it’s refreshing to see how
the power of creativity and a touch of sentiment can breathe new life into existing
wardrobes. Not only is this a sustainable choice, but it also allows us to rediscover
the beauty of cherished pieces, each carrying its special memories. &TV’s leading
ladies including Neha Joshi (Krishna Devi Vajpayee from Atal), Geetanjali Mishra
(Rajesh Singh from Happu Ki Ultan Paltan), and Shubhangi Atre (Angoori Bhabi
from Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai) share how creativity can transform clothes into
something truly spectacular for Diwali. Neha Joshi, who plays Krishna Devi
Vajpayee in Atal, says, “I love adding a delicate touch to my Diwali outfits. For
example, I have this maroon cotton saree that I wore last year, and this time I am
giving it a fresh twist by pairing it with a mustard blouse I found recently. It’s
incredible how something as simple as changing the blouse can transform the
entire look. And the fun doesn’t stop there. I’m mismatching my accessories too!
I’ll be wearing oxidized silver jewellery and mixing in colourful bangles for a
quirky, vibrant feel. Shopping is still part of my Diwali prep, but I’m focusing on
thoughtful, small additions like a handmade dupatta or unique earrings from local
artisans. This way, I keep the spirit of tradition alive while also having fun
experimenting with new styles.”
Geetanjali Mishra, who plays Rajesh in Happu Ki Ultan Paltan, shares her
excitement saying, “This year, I am stepping out of my comfort zone and
experimenting with mismatched clothes and accessories. I have a bright yellow
lehenga I adore, and instead of the usual coordinated choli, I am wearing it with a
deep magenta blouse. The bold colour combination adds an exciting festive vibe
that feels so right for Diwali. I am even mixing metals - pairing silver jhumkas with
gold bangles because who says things need to match perfectly? I have always
enjoyed shopping for stand-out pieces in local markets, and this year, I am on the
hunt for colourful, chunky jewellery that pops. Fashion is about self-expression,
and Diwali is the perfect time to highlight that!” Shubhangi Atre, the beloved
Angoori Bhabi from Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai shares, “I love Diwali shopping, but this
year I’m blending tradition with a bit of a twist. I’m taking my vibrant orange
saree and pairing it with a contrasting green blouse, accessorizing it with pearl
jewellery instead of the usual gold. It’s a mix of old and new, blending items from
my wardrobe that hold sentimental value, like my mother’s royal blue Kanjeevaram
saree, with modern, bold accessories like statement earrings and colourful
bangles. To me, it’s not just about looking festive but also about creating new
memories with pieces that already mean so much."
