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."
