<h2>American singer Halsey attended the 2024 Gold Gala in Los Angeles wearing a Sabyasachi lehenga. Have a look!&nbsp;</h2>

American singer and songwriter Halsey attended the 2024 Gold Gala in Los Angeles wearing a Sabyasachi lehenga. The singer was accompanied by her boyfriend Avan Jogia, who was also spotted in a resplendent traditional ensemble from the same designer.&nbsp;
Halsey accessorized a multi-coloured lehenga with bangles, bracelets, rings, earrings and quirky pink hair.&nbsp;
On the other hand, at the LA premiere of Heeramandi, &nbsp;actor Sharmin Segal was spotted in the same ensemble.&nbsp;
<h3>Halsey's outfit details&nbsp;</h3>
Halsey's Sabyasachi Mukherjee lehenga set is available in a variety of vibrant colors, such as red, green, baby pink, black, forest green, brown, orange, gold, and mustard green. The choli, adorned with rose patterns and intricately embroidered gold jaal work on the round neckline, comes in a striking red hue. Additionally, the blouse boasts full-length sleeves, a midriff-baring cropped hem, and a fitted silhouette.
Halsey paired the blouse with a low-waisted lehenga skirt adorned with multi-coloured panels, featuring intricate gold thread embroidery, floral patterns, sequin work, and heavy gota patti embroidery. The skirt's design includes broad borders, a pleated fall, an A-line silhouette, a gold Sabyasachi logo embellishment, and a floor-grazing hem length.
To complete the ensemble, Halsey draped a net dupatta over her shoulders and arms, adding embellished gota patti borders, floral applique work, a scalloped hem, and sequin embroidery for the finishing touches.
Heeramandi actor Sharmin Segal attended the series premiere with her uncle, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, in Los Angeles on April 30, 2024.
For the event, the actress opted for the opulent Sabyasachi outfit, comprising a full-sleeved choli adorned with heavy embroidery on the neck, a multi-coloured lehenga, and a sheer dupatta. She opted for subtle makeup, a pair of earrings and a few rings to accentuate the beauty of her look.

The fireworks may have been banned this festive season but controversies surrounding advertising campaigns of major brands are creating enough drama to keep the virtual crackers going. From a mangalsutra to an atta maker, there&rsquo;s no telling which product is going to get cancelled on which day.
One day you&rsquo;re a social media trend and the next day, you could be a brand facing boycott.
So, whether you loved them, hated them or criticised the brains out of them, here&rsquo;s a roundup of brands that were recently grilled on social media for irking too many people
1. Sabyasachi
High-fashion brand Sabyasachi on Sunday withdrew a photo campaign that featured a model donning a designer mangalsutra with racy lingerie. Sabyasachi stirred controversy for apparently &lsquo;hurting religious sentiments&rsquo; by showing a semi-naked model in a mangalsutra ad.
The Kolkata-based brand&rsquo;s move come after Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra issued an ultimatum to the brand to take the ad down.
2. Fabindia
In a similar fashion, chain retailer Fabindia also withdrew an for its new festive line after backlash from right-wing Hindu groups. Known for its handcrafted fashion products, the brand was accused of using Urdu to name a collection for Diwali, a festival primarily celebrated by Hindus.
The promo campaign, which was titled Jashn-e-Riwaaz, an Urdu term meaning &lsquo;celebration of tradition&rsquo;, was eventually withdrawn after backlash.
3. Dabur's Fem
Homegrown FMCG behemoth Dabur withdrew its Karva Chauth ad campaign featuring a lesbian couple celebrating the festival after several sections of social media it described as &ldquo;culturally inappropriate&rdquo;.
Many on the interwebs also hailed the campaign for Dabur&rsquo;s Fem Creme bleach for its pro-LGBTQIA+ stance. Nonetheless, the brand had to take the campaign down and issue an apology.
4. Tanishq
Another local player who faced the music for taking a stand was Tata Group's brand Tanishq. The jewellery brand released an advertisement showing an interfaith couple at a baby shower organised for the Hindu bride by her Muslim in-laws.
Slammed for promoting what netizens called &lsquo;love jihad&rsquo;, Tanishq had to withdraw the advertisement after the online trolling extended to physical threats to its employees and stores.
5. Kent RO
For Kent RO Systems, it was an ad for an &lsquo;Atta &amp; Bread Maker&rsquo; that brought the house down. Famous for its water purifiers, Kent released an advertisement that showed domestic workers in a negative light by depicting them as infection carriers.
The Noida-based company&rsquo;s ad cautioned against letting your &lsquo;maid knead atta by hand&rsquo; referring to the practice as &lsquo;unhygienic.&rsquo; The ad, featuring Hema Malini and her daughter Esha Deol drew heavy criticism on social media who later apologised. Malini then claimed the ad did not &lsquo;resonate with her values.&rsquo;

Maker of&nbsp;affordable and trendy clothes, H&amp;M's factories have been named in several worker abuse reports over the years. Whereas Sabyasachi&nbsp;has been considered a champion for the Indian fashion industry and an ardent supporter of local artisans.
For his part, the designer has claimed in press interviews that 90 per cent of the H&amp;M line has been produced in India and&nbsp;all the patterns in the collaboration are hand-drawn by the Sabyasachi Art&nbsp;Foundation.
Priced between Rs. 2,000 to 10,000, the brand has also steered clear of calling this collection, a 'sustainable' one.&nbsp;
Keeping in mind the pandemic situation, H&amp;M is also pushing for a&nbsp;responsible in-store shopping experience, where customers will be asked to pre-register to shop the collection in stores.
But knowing H&amp;M's history, it is not wrong to question the lack of transparency and actual&nbsp;execution of these tall claims.
If you're on the fence, it might be a good idea to shop directly from a homegrown craft or designer brand that makes goods in your preferred price range.
