UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s wife, Akshata Murty is one of the most elegant fashionistas we have witnessed in recent times. She consistently embraces traditional attire, as evidenced by her recent Diwali celebration at 10 Downing Street, where she adorned a striking blue Mysuru silk saree complemented by a Gandaberunda necklace. Akshata has time and again left a fashionable impression on audiences, whether at ethnic-themed festivals or formal occasions such as the G20 Summit in New Delhi or various international summits. Her style and elegance know no bounds, captivating onlookers with her distinctive fashion choices.
During the Diwali celebration this year, Akshata Murty made a poised style statement and opted for an electric blue silk saree draped neatly with an elbow-sleeved blouse. The plain mono-colour saree featured delicate gold borders, while the blouse showcased intricate floral motifs.
Akshata complemented her attire with dangling earrings, a Gandaberunda necklace depicting the two-headed bird from Hindu mythology, and a stack of bangles. Her choice of accessories and the symbolic Gandaberunda pattern exemplify her thoughtful approach to fashion. Opting for a neat bun and minimal makeup, Akshata Murty radiated understated elegance.
Rishi Sunak and Akshata Murty’s daughters were also dressed in ethnic attire for at-home Diwali celebrations.
“A special moment for me to be celebrating Diwali with my family on the steps of No.10. Happy Diwali to everyone celebrating here in the UK and around the world,” Rishi Sunak wrote while sharing photos on Instagram.
Take a look at her attire below:
Prior to Diwali, in a pre-occasion celebration at 10 Downing Street, she had worn another ethnic attire that stole the show. She was seen in a red and golden brocade kurta set by Raw Mango, a renowned Indian fashion label. Take a look here:

Akshata Murty’s impeccable wardrobe choices are not just limited to traditional festivals, to extend to the much talked about G20 Summit in New Delhi too. On one occasion, she showcased a printed lilac midi dress at the millet exhibition hosted by the G20 Spouses Programme. The chic ensemble featured dramatic puffed sleeves, an A-line silhouette, and a flared bottom adorned with floral prints.
In another G20 event, during a meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Akshata Murty opted for a multicoloured flared skirt paired with a crisp white button-down shirt. The vibrant skirt showcased various floral prints in shades of red, green, and orange. Subtle makeup and an elegant charm completed her look, reaffirming Akshata’s consistent display of unmatched ethnic style.
While we are in complete awe of all of her fashion choices, her royal blue saree takes the cake for us. Which one of Akshata’s looks impressed you the most?
