Katrina Kaif's Bridal Jewellery Look — The Set Every 2025 Bride Wants
When Katrina Kaif married Vicky Kaushal in December 2021, her bridal jewellery became a masterclass in the modern Indian bridal aesthetic. Traditional in spirit, contemporary in execution. Heavy enough to be magnificent, balanced enough to let her face remain the focus.
Here is how to achieve Katrina's bridal jewellery approach with Abdesigns — and why her choices remain the most copied bridal jewellery look in India.
What Made Katrina's Bridal Look So Compelling
Katrina's bridal jewellery worked because of three things that every bride can learn from:
- Perfect matching: Every piece — necklace, earrings, maang tikka, bangles — was from the same family. Same stone colour, same metal tone, same design language.
- Balance: Heavy necklace, medium earrings. Not everything at maximum volume simultaneously.
- Hair styling that worked with the jewellery: Hair pinned back showed the earrings and tikka. The jewellery was allowed to be seen.
Look 1: The Complete Polki Bridal Set
Katrina's most iconic jewellery choice was her Polki necklace set — uncut stone effect in gold, creating a raw, heirloom quality that felt ancient and precious. Matched with Polki drop earrings and a Polki maang tikka, the set was cohesive and magnificent.
The Katrina bridal formula: Complete Polki set in gold, necklace + earrings + tikka all matched, warm stone work, hair up.

Look 2: The Temple Touch — Lotus Necklace Sets
The other bridal necklace trend Katrina's wedding accelerated: temple-inspired motifs, especially the lotus — India's most sacred bloom. An antique gold lotus necklace set with matching earrings delivers the same heirloom warmth as Polki, at a lighter weight and price.
The formula: Antique gold lotus necklace set with earrings, kemp stones or Meenakari detailing, hair up to show the set fully.

Look 3: The Kundan Mehndi Look
For the Mehendi ceremony, Katrina stepped back from heavy jewellery and chose colourful, festive pieces — Kundan earrings in green and gold, delicate tikka, glass bangles. The look was joyful and celebratory without competing with the mehendi art.
The Katrina mehendi formula: Colourful Kundan earrings in festive tones, delicate tikka, stacked glass bangles. No heavy necklace — the mehendi is the statement.

Look 4: The Sangeet Statement
Katrina's Sangeet night was bold and dramatic — large statement earrings, a colourful Meenakari necklace, stacked bangles in the wedding colour palette. She performed, danced and looked magnificent doing it.
The Katrina sangeet formula: Maximum glamour. Large statement earrings + bold necklace + stacked bangles. Every piece turned up to full volume.

Look 5: The Reception Elegance
For the reception, Katrina chose something lighter — delicate earrings, a simple elegant necklace. After a full day of wedding ceremonies, the reception look was refined and beautiful without the ceremony weight.
The Katrina reception formula: Lighter earrings (medium size, delicate stone work), simple pendant necklace or pearl set, minimal bangles. Elegant over elaborate.

Buy your complete bridal set from one place, not assembled from multiple shops. The matching is the difference between a look that feels curated and one that feels assembled.
