Radhika Merchant, alongside her fiancé Anant Ambani, dazzled in an archival Dior dress during their exclusive pre-wedding celebrations in Portofino, Italy. The four-day event, attended by family, close friends, and film industry luminaries, featured a private plaza closure and a mesmerizing performance by Andrea Bocelli.
Merchant’s dress, a Hate Couture Cocktail piece from Christian Dior’s Autumn Winter 1959 Haute Couture collection designed by Yves Saint Laurent, was a standout. While most Dior archival pieces are museum-held, this particular dress was auctioned in 2016 for ₹3,20,714 (USD 3,840).
Photos and videos of the event have flooded social media, showcasing the couple’s opulent celebrations and Merchant’s stunning fashion choice, adding a touch of vintage glamour to the festivities.
