MUMBAI: Aalisha Panwar is undoubtedly a stunner.

Recently, the actress had a bridal-wear photoshoot done by celebrity make-up artist and stylist Neha Mahajan, and she spelled elegance and class through her outfit. Bridal is name of the game as we have entered the season of marriages, and Neha’s creativity in designing Aalisha’s look is sure to inspire many a bride.

Aalisha was dressed in a royal red and gold lehenga by Payal Keyal Asiana couture with double dupattas to give her a larger-than-life look. She flaunted precious polki diamond jewellery from Khurana Jewelery House. Her make-up was rich and classy too.

Elaborating on the look, Neha said, ‘Usually, brides go for red lipsticks and loud makeup for their D day, but now, the norms are changing. These days, dramatic eyes and nude lips are the in thing in terms of makeup for brides. I gave Aalisha a pink champagne coloured eyeshadow with a soft smokey look plus a smudged black liner to accentuate her eyes. As the eyes were bold, I kept the lips on a soft peachy tone to balance the red color of the outfit. And Aalisha’s hair was tied in a neat bun with mathapati on the forehead and roses and baby breath flowers for the bun.’

Neha also had a second look designed for Aalisha. She looked gorgeous in pastel blue with a tinge of silver, something that one can opt for to attend a reception.

Aalisha looked graceful in a powder blue and silver lehenga with a very unique blouse and dupatta to give a contemporary feel.

We asked Neha about her thought behind designing. She expressed, ‘Being a celebrity makeup artist and a stylist, all my actresses are not only professionally associated with me but also share a friendship. Owing to have been in the industry for a very long time, I do my full homework by seeing their past work and Instagram profiles to understand the kind of makeup and looks that they have not done before. In terms of photography, I always choose the best person to capture the special moments of my celebrity brides. So for this exclusive shoot, I called a wedding photographer Knots By Amp to give Aalisha the true feel of a bride.’

Way to go, Neha!
