As one would expect from a family that genuinely has it all, you should have high expectations for the Ambanis. At their family gatherings, you can anticipate seeing the biggest Bollywood actors serving meals. They will probably fly in casually and host billionaires in the tech industry. Did you have your eye on any gowns at the Met Gala? What do you think? They purchased it.

Now, in yet another stunning display of wealth, Radhika Merchant, the soon-to-be Ambani daughter-in-law, is scheduled to wear a dress created by unconventional fashion designer Grace Ling. The elaborate creation, intended for a pre-wedding party with a space theme, has drawn interest from fashion lovers all around the world. This is especially true after Instant Bollywood posted pictures of the outfit, raising questions about how the dress is supposed to be put on in the first place.
According to Business Insider India, "this unique piece is crafted using Aerospace Aluminum Technology and is 3D-carved, drawing inspiration from the concept of a Galactic Princess." Furthermore, according to BollywoodShaadis, "although the 3D element shows the use of armoured golden parts of the dress, the designers mentioned that the material is fluid and delicate. Thus, the dress was designed using new-era technology and took 30 artisans to complete it."
Furthermore, you couldn't be far from the truth if you believe that this is the most absurd aspect of the entire experience. The space-themed event is scheduled to take place as a luxury cruise, according to Business Insider India. This elaborate attire is to be paired with it. "Between May 28 to 30, around 800 guests will be treated to an opulent adventure aboard a luxury cruise liner," reads an excerpt from the publication's report. "The itinerary boasts a picturesque journey from Italy to the South of France, spanning 4,380 kilometres. And in true Ambani style, comfort is paramount – 600 hospitality staff will be on board to ensure every whim is catered to."
This comes, therefore, after an elaborate, well-publicized, celebrity-filled three-day event in Jamnagar that apparently cost an incredible INR12.59 billion.
Designer Grace Ling, who is based in New York, is renowned for her audacious and inventive designs. Radhika Merchant has become one of the designer's well-known Indian clientele, following in the footsteps of Bhumi Pednekar, who recently graced the GQ Most Influential Young Indians Awards in a bold Grace Ling gown accessorized with an unusual purse.
Radhika looked stunning in dresses created by some of the most renowned designers in the world during her pre-wedding events. She looked amazing in a Versace gown that was reminiscent of Blake Lively's 2022 Met Gala ensemble on the first day. She also displayed gorgeous outfits created by well-known Indian designers like Tarun Tahiliani and the renowned Abu Jani & Sandeep Khosla pair.
With its advanced craftsmanship and futuristic design, Radhika's pre-wedding celebration dress serves as a representation of the harmonious fusion of tradition and innovation. The utilization of modern technology and minute details draw attention to how fashion is changing and combining elegance and innovation. Radhika's dress is still a focal point as the couple continues to celebrate on a lavish cruise; it perfectly captures the opulence and sophistication of their wedding celebrations.
