Actor Rakul Preet Singh wears a dress by Sunaina Khera in Dubai
Making a striking appearance at a recent event in Dubai, Indian actor Rakul Preet Singh showcased a hand-embroidered sequin dress from designer Sunaina Khera’s collection, a piece that speaks to the evolving landscape of occasion wear. The aqua-firozi blue creation, with its corset-inspired bodice and tiered construction, shows how festive dressing in 2026 has come of age, using craftsmanship to quash fleeting trends. The design philosophy is one of celebration-meets-precision, with the right amount of sparkle, for day or night, and where the garment truly becomes timeless.

The dress is balanced in its construction. A corset-inspired bodice cinches at the waist to define shape, then opens into graduated tiers that provide movement. Hand-embroidered sequins cover the dress – a meticulous process that creates sparkle through craftsmanship rather than surface application. The silhouette stays contemporary without chasing what’s trending now, and the engineering allows the fabric to move naturally while holding form, thanks to its tiered construction.

Lifestyle Insider is a kind of junction point, connecting people with diverse interests that touch on the more luxurious aspects of lifestyle – fashion, design, travel, food and spirits, art, watches and jewellery, cars, yachts, and aviation, and technology. People today don’t fit into boxes and categories. In our individual ways, we are interested in diverse themes, products, and the challenges that face our world today. You will judge how well this effort of mine caters to your passions and proclivities.
Lifestyle Insider is a showcase of all that is beautiful and luxe. Behind every creation, is a designer, chef, entrepreneur, or a design maison. I have delved into my own appreciation for objetsde luxe that I have admired over the years – be it a love of fashion from the world’s top Parisian and Italian fashion maisons and their ’90s muses, or the care that goes into sari and Indian textile collections in my own family. Growing up on four continents, as the daughter of a former Indian Ambassador, I’ve seen a remarkable array of historic places and met a myriad people. My aim is to bring my world view into this website, a curation of what I find particularly stunning, unique, and newsworthy.
It’s an exciting time for brands all over the world. With change comes opportunity. With the global ‘reset’ and uncertainty on many fronts, there is a chance to write a new script. Let’s be those pioneers.
