Kangana Ranaut's signature saree and Hermès look is rewriting the playbook for political style - showing that pared-back elegance, blended with precise touch of luxury, can serve the boldest statements.
If your idea of political fashion is still stuck in the era of dreary suits and clean silhouettes, Kangana Ranaut’s style is the wake-up call you need. The actress-turned-politician has been causing quite a style stir at the Parliament - merging traditional Indian drapes with the world’s most coveted French accessory - the iconic Hermès.
Ever wondered why this combination feels so unapologetically modern? Let's find out!
Kangana’s Parliament style comes with an unexpected twist, seamlessly blending heritage and haute - pairing the quintessential Indian saree with the international allure of a high-end label.
One look, for instance, features the ‘Gangstar’ actress in a handloom cotton saree with subtle, diagonal green stripes and a boat neck blouse adorned with puffy sleeves that echo timeless sophistication. The twist? She accessorises her traditional Indian six-yards with Hermès Herbag Messenger 39 bag, worth over ₹4 lakh - layering time-honoured elegance with an upscale edge.

Kangana's Parliament attires aren't mere sartorial show-offs - they're power play outfits that honor both tradition and underrated elegance. A saree rich with cultural legacy paired with a bag born of Parisian ateliers, together declare that heritage and ambition can indeed walk hand in hand.

The combination clicks because each piece plays its role - while the saree brings soulful ease, the Hermès accentuates it with prestige.
Minimalist in design, the satchel’s soft beige (sometimes black), and canvas detailing echo the cotton saree’s gentle palette - making Kangana’s look both refreshingly simple and aspirational.
By marrying pared-back traditional attire with muted high-end accessories, Kangana is truly setting a fresh benchmark for Indian women and political power dressing.

Her go-to? Often, she drapes a broad pallu on a gentle diagonal - which, to be very real, looks practical, flattering, and quietly regal. Pearls deliver a touch of classic grace that aligns with her minimalist yet poised aesthetic.
When it comes to make-up, Kangana mostly opts for a “no makeup” look - with her usually tucked neatly hairdo - driving home the point that it’s the clothes and accessories carrying the storyline - not over-the-top glam.
Beyond their luxury appeal, Kangana’s Hermès bags act as deliberate markers of taste and identity. With the Birkin and Kelly at its helm, Hermès is shorthand for untouchable exclusivity - commanding cult-like reverence across continents.
Kangana’s saree-and-Hermès pairing is boldly redefining how Indian women in politics showcase their heritage and individuality. It's power dressing, reinvented - not with flashy suits, rather through the quiet pride of handwoven textiles and the artistry of Indian craft - giving women quiet but undeniable sartorial power.
