As Vijay takes the helm of Tamil Nadu, we break down the fashion diplomacy behind his black-and-white look and Trisha’s standout turquoise saree
Vijay’s Black Blazer And Trisha’s Blue Kanjeevaram Saree Wins The Internet At Swearing-In Ceremony In Chennai
History is being written at Chennai’s Jawaharlal Nehru Indoor Stadium today as Thalapathy Vijay officially transitions from the silver screen to the Secretariat. The atmosphere in the city is nothing short of electric as he took oath as the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, ending nearly sixty years of Dravidian party dominance.
For the ceremony, many VIPs have made their way to the stadium for the ceremony which isn’t just a political milestone but also a worthy fashion moment.
Vijay: The Chief Minister’s New Uniform
Stepping away from his usual casual promotional wear, Vijay arrived in a look that signalled a new era of leadership. For his oath-taking ceremony, he has opted for a sharp, formal aesthetic, sporting a crisp white shirt paired with a classic black blazer and pants.
The monochrome palette was an understated, professional choice which we believe works perfectly for the Tamil Nadu’s political stage. It feels like a nod to a modern, corporate-political hybrid style, ready to get down to business. Keeping it grounded, he maintained a well-groomed salt-and-pepper beard and his signature swept-back hair, looking every bit the “CM-designate”.
Trisha Krishnan: The Guest In Blue
Long-time co-star and friend Trisha Krishnan was among the first high-profile dignitaries to arrive, and her look was an absolute standout, blending traditional elegance with contemporary poise.
Trisha looked luminous in a sea-foam blue/turquoise Kanjeevaram saree. The saree featured a delicate golden border and subtle self-embroidery. She paired the drape with a gold-beige brocade blouse featuring intricate floral patterns. On the jewellery front, she opted for a sophisticated diamond choker with a central ruby drop and matching studs. Her hair was pulled back into a neat, low bun adorned with a string of fresh jasmine flowers, staying true to her South Indian roots.
Trisha’s presence and her constant smile were a hit on social media, with fans celebrating the “Ghilli” duo’s real-life milestone.
