Samantha Prabhu Repurposes Wedding Gown; Fans Call Her 'Desi Marilyn Monroe'

1 week ago 103

The tulle from the wedding gown was dyed nude and black and the boning was retained in the repurposed outfit. Replying to a comment, the designer’s official handle wrote, “The center stone on the flowers were changed from clear to black and added in many layers to peekaboo along the slit. The can can part and remaining flowers that weren’t used are becoming part of something else! So almost the entire outfit has been repurposed with very little wastage.”

Samantha Ruth also shared pictures in the outfit on her Instagram and wrote, “Originally crafted by my good friend Kresha Bajaj, wearing it reimagined this way evokes a range of emotions."

"This dress has always been special, but now it symbolizes much more. We often tend to assign specific ideas or notions to our cherished possessions, rather than recognizing their true value, which often surpasses our initial perceptions. It can hold varied meaning and purposes, exemplifying the essence of sustainability: understanding the value of our possessions, our ideas beyond their conventional definitions."

The repurposed outfit was a hit amongst fans with many comparing it to Princess Diana’s revenge dress. Others likened Samantha Ruth’s look to Marilyn Monroe. 

Samantha had worn a white, off-shoulder gown with a flowy skirt at her wedding to Naga Chaitanya in 2017. The duo announced their separation in 2021.

Fans commented that the new dress reminded them of Princess Diana's revenge dress.

On the work front, Samantha Ruth Prabhu was last seen in season 2 of The Family Man and the films Yashoda, Shaakuntalam, and Kushi. She will next be seen in Raj & DK's Citadel: Honey Bunny alongside Varun Dhawan.
