7 Triptii Dimri-inspired blouse design ideas to turn up glamour meter with simple saree
Triptii Dimri and her ethnic sways never go unnoticed. The diva has a knack for styling some of the most stunning blouses with her sarees, turning even the simplest look into a statement. The listicle below features a catalogue of Dimri's standout blouse designs that will come in handy for your next visit to the tailor. 1. Keyhole neckline Triptii Dimri wrapped herself in Tarun Tahiliani's royal finesse and elevated the saree with a striking blouse design. She wore an intricately crafted designer saree, paired with a meticulously embellished red blouse. The blouse featured a keyhole neckline adorned with a green stone dangle, creating the illusion of neck jewelry. This blouse design is perfect for when you want your blouse to stand out and not get lost under the saree. In Dimri's case, the rich zari work and ornate sleeves stole the spotlight, exuding regal charm and sophisticated elegance. 2. Mirror-work The Laila Majnu actress donned a red floral Arpita Mehta saree, pairing it with a stunning mirror-work blouse. Floral sarees carry a timeless charm, making them ideal for both casual wear and festive occasions. However, Triptii Dimri's mirror-work blouse elevated the look, adding a touch of glamour that made the ensemble wedding or soirée-ready. The blouse featured a V-neckline with a subtle notched hem and delicate strap sleeves—perfectly blending traditional craftsmanship with a modern silhouette. 3. Bustier top Triptii Dimri styled a retro magenta drape from Ekaya Banaras with a contemporary twist by pairing it with a bustier top. The gleaming saree featured subtle checked patterns throughout, and she matched its solid magenta trim with a satin, strapless blouse. The blouse had a form-fitting silhouette with a hemline extending below the midriff, while the cupped design and plunging, scooped neckline added a bold, sultry edge to the overall look—perfectly blending vintage charm with modern flair. 4. Simple and strappy One of the best blouse designs to keep the saree sway subtle yet gorgeous is by going for a minimal blouse. Triptii Dimri paired her temperature-raising red drape with a plain red blouse, and still, her look came out hot and fierce. However, the tailoring of this blouse is not as simple as it looks. The sleeves, like two hoops, go around the arms and are attached to a strap that goes over the bosom. This minimal yet finely tailored blouse is perfect for channeling desi IT-girl vibes on any occasion. 5. Plunging neckline When in doubt, go for a plunging neckline blouse. This contemporary style adds a charm that makes the saree look both glamorous and sultry. For her shimmery ivory saree, Triptii wore a detailed, sequin-embellished blouse with a deep sweetheart neckline, trimmed with silver adornments. The strappy bodice featured the same sweetheart cut at the back, completing the festive, glamorous look. 6. Truly backless 'Peeche ka kahan hai?'—Until at least one relative exclaims this on seeing your blouse, it isn't truly backless. Take cues from the Bulbul actress, who wore a black embellished blouse supported only by a thin strap at the back. The black dangles along the hemline made this bodice even more attractive. She paired this ravishing blouse with a plain black georgette saree, exuding unmatched black-beauty charm. 7. Contrasting colors Another great way to transform a simple saree into a captivating ensemble is by pairing it with a contrasting blouse. The Bollywood fashionista wore a shimmery, sequinned black blouse with a satin purple saree, creating an utterly enchanting look. The strappy blouse with a deep sweetheart neckline perfectly complemented Dimri's purple saree, making it an understated yet striking choice for parties.

What are Labubu dolls, and why has buying one become a ‘battlefield'?
It dangles from designer handbags, has been spotted accompanying celebrities like Rihanna and Dua Lipa, and has teens queuing overnight just to get their hands on one. To the untrained eye, Labubu dolls might seem like a creepy stuffed toy – with their demonic eyes and menacing snaggle-tooth smile. But to thousands of fans, it's the ultimate IT-girl accessory. In recent weeks, demand for the small collectible accessory has exploded. Crowds have formed outside of shops, online listings for rare editions have skyrocketed in price, and things have even turned physical in stores. So what exactly are Labubu dolls – and why has this quirky keyring turned shopping centres into battlefields? Labubu is a furry monster character created by Hong Kong-born artist Kasing Lung. Unlike more familiar cute characters like Hello Kitty, Labubu features a snaggle toothed grin and wide, mischievous eyes. The creatures first appeared in a Nordic-inspired picture book by Lung, before toy company Pop Mart launched the first Labubu collectible series in 2019. Since then, their popularity has surged, and in 2025, they're more in-demand than ever – thanks to TikTok and celebrity endorsements. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video The hype around the dolls has transcended age groups while teenage girls are queuing outside of shops, A-listers are just as eager to get their hands on them. Lisa from K-pop group Blackpink, who recently featured in the Season 3 of The White Lotus, admitted Labubu was her 'secret obsession'. In an interview with Vanity Fair she said she went 'crazy' after being introduced to collectible and spent all of her money on them. Stars including Olivia Atwood, Rihanna, and Dua Lipa have also been spotted sporting Labubu dolls on their bags. Labubu belong to a tribe called 'monsters', members of the group include Zimono, Mokoko and Tyococo. They're sold in blind boxes, meaning you don't know which character you're going to get until you open it. Despite their mischievous smiles, Lung describes them as good-natured little creatures whose well-intentioned antics sometimes get them into a pickle. Up until recently, you could easily get your hands on a Labubu doll in the UK, simply by walking into a Pop Mart store. They retail for between £13.50 and £50, though rare edition can sell for hundreds, even thousands on online retail sites. On Friday, a Labubu Pronounce Be Fancy Now doll was listed on eBay for £1,299. However, due to overwhelming demand, Pop Mart paused Labubu sales in all 16 of its UK shops 'to prevent any potential safety issues'. The retailer shared the announcement to its Instagram page last week, stating that they had seen a 'significant rise in customer turnout on restock days'. However, fans of the little creatures can still buy them online. The craze around these little creatures has turned chaotic in some UK stores. Labubu fan Victoria Calvert claimed customers were scrambling to get their hands on the dolls at Pop Mart's Westfield Stratford location. 'It was just getting ridiculous to be in that situation where people were fighting and shouting and you felt scared,' she told the BBC. She said she met customers who had been outside since the early hours and others that had camped overnight. Avid collector of Labubu dolls Ahsley Bushey said Pop Mart's decision to pause the in-store selling of Labubu dolls has made them even more difficult to get. More Trending The 32-year-old from Northamptonshire said she's spent more than £1,000 on 13 Labubu dolls and countless hours scrolling TikTok Shop, Vinted and Facebook resale groups to expand her collection. 'It's a battlefield. Pop Mart are live every day from 2pm to 7pm and I sneak out of work, like I'm always trying to score one on the livestream,' she told the PA news agency. She added that she spends 'more time than I care to admit' tracking down Labubus. 'Especially now, because they're so hard to get' after the UK sale pause. View More » Pop Mart has confirmed they are pausing in-store sales until at least June – whether the craze will die down by then is anyone's guess. Do you have a story to share?
