All her public appearances are marked by trademark glitter and glow, of which her opulent collection of Kanjivarams and Benarasis are Sukanya Verma's absolute favourite.
Every movie star is into fashion today, but few can match Rekha's dedication or dazzle.
Long before red carpet appearances and magazine spreads became about a battery of stylists and designers taking care of a star's look, Rekha's one-woman army set the benchmark with her distinct elegance and irresistible charisma.
Think Rekha, think resplendence.
All her public appearances are marked by trademark glitter and glow, of which her opulent collection of Kanjivarams and Benarasis are our absolute favourite.
On the evergreen diva's 70th birthday, here's looking at the incomparable allure of Rekha's sari shine.
The star does her magic draped in a chartreuse green Benarasi brocade designed by Manish Malhotra.
All that glitters is Rekha.
We don't see ourselves ever getting tired of seeing the movie legend in golden numbers paired with her staple accessories of a zardozi batua, traditional jewels, a dash of sindoor and bold red lips.
On anyone else, the gold overkill would be overwhelming or wash them out but not Rekha. Nuh uh. On Rekha, it's art.
Throw in a bulky necklace, haath phool and maang tikka to shake things up and the drama that is Rekha in a golden Kanjivaram is a sight to behold.
If a person could be a festival, Rekha would qualify as one that lasts all year around. Catch a glimpse of the veteran fashionista in jewelled tones and bling surplus, you'll know what we mean.
You can never go wrong in cream and gold. And Rekha is all about classics done right.
Rekha sure knows how to make our hearts skip a beat in all her statuesque 24 karat glory.
A maximalist in the purest sense, we'd give anything to see Rekha collaborate with the worshipper of her favourite attributes -- Sanjay Leela Bhansali -- at least once in their career.
A true embodiment of 'Dil cheez kya hai, aap meri jaan lijiye' indeed.
Red, white or gold, Rekha's go-to colours bring out the goddess in her to the hilt.
Uff Rekha.
Hai Rekha.
The sight of Rekha in one of her signature saris can turn even the biggest grumps of the world into sighing machines.
