From classic hoops to contemporary maang tikkas, the young star’s jewellery repertoire is a study in classics

At merely 21 years of age and with two blockbusters on her portfolio already, the future looks bright for Ananya Panday. Whether she’s dashing around for the many commitments on her social calendar or enjoying some time off with fellow debutantes, her Gen-Z cred has her opting for looks that are immensely wearable and sharable, at the same time. If you were to browse closely through her style files, you’d find that the impactful hues and statement-making prints are accompanied by a pared-down take on accessories. Minimal, classic pieces usually underscore her thoughtful approach to accessorising. Here, we take you on a tour of the classic staples that have earned her favour.

Decoding Ananya Panday’s everyday jewellery choices

The classic hoops serve as an all-time favourite in her everyday rotation, with skinnier iterations finding favour for daywear. On the promotions trail for her last release, Pati Patni Aur Woh, the young 21-year-old opted for oversized silver hoops to go with her floral printed mini from Leo and Lin. For another event on her social calendar, the star stepped out in a bubblegum pink dress that Elle Woods would easily bookmark for her next Harvard video essay. Allowing the latex pink number to have its time in the spotlight, her finishing touches came in the form of fuss-free hoops framed by beachy waves.

When she’s on the party prowl, you’ll find Panday opting for dressier alternatives. For a recent event in Mumbai, she stepped out in a striped blazer dress from Kanika Goyal and chunky gold hoops from Misho. Not one to shy away from unconventional hues, she opted for a canary yellow cut-out dress for another night out on the town, and looked to rectangular gold earrings and a thin ring to cinch the look together. The latter has also pulled in multiple cameos in her red carpet wardrobe. A recent awards ceremony saw the young star stepping out in a bedazzled Monique Lhullier gown and a handful of diamonds rings stacked on her fingers.

Inside Ananya Panday’s Indian jewellery collection

The traditional side of her closet plays host to dramatic lehengas in standout hues—and a roster of on-trend accessories to go with. If you’re tired of summer pastels, take notes from the classic black lehenga she picked from Tarun Tahiliani. The star chose to accentuate the multi-hued embroidery with diamond and jadau drop earrings from Rambhajo’s. The young star takes frequent rainchecks on earrings altogether; choosing to instead pull her look together with a contemporary maang tikka. Those in search of inspiration can take cues from her head-to-toe yellow look for a friend’s wedding earlier this year. The cheery pineapple yellow sharara set was paired with a diamond maang tikka that punctuated her half-braided hairdo. The silhouette was again spotted in her highlighter green pick from Amit Aggarwal. The star chose to team the scene-stealing hue of her lehenga with a single maang tikka in lieu of the chunky pieces usually favoured on the wedding circuit.
