With the global authority in consumer trend forecasting, WGSN, announcing transformative teal as the colour of the year 2026, it would be no surprise to see the shade make its way on the runway and in the upcoming collections of prestigious luxury brands.

The hue reflects nature and sustainability, moving away from beige and earthy tones to futuristic green-blue colours representing both the sea and the forest. It’s about refreshing balance and a sense of calm.

“Transformative Teal is a fluid fusion of blue and aquatic green that reflects the diversity of nature and taps into an Earth-first mindset. It represents change and redirection, and can help encourage resilience in the face of complex climate challenges,” the brand explained.

While it may not be restricted to just fashion and beauty and may extend to interiors and home décor as well, here’s a look at how Bollywood divas have embraced the colours, looking absolutely delightful in their choice of styles.

For one of the ceremonies at her friend’s wedding recently, Ananya Panday wore a breathtaking teal-green lehenga set comprising a skirt in multi hues paired with a stylish embroidered corset. Her ensemble looked chic and very glamorous in the refreshing hues that added soothing freshness and beauty. Her look was styled beautifully with desi jewellery, which included a choker, earrings, a bracelet, and a ring.

The actress looked stunning in a Jigar Mali teal-green ensemble. Her striking jacket set was detailed with antique gold dori and embellished hand embroidery, making for a glamorous festive choice. The hue looked both refreshing and dazzling on her, styled with traditional earrings that also carry a contemporary touch.

No one wears and styles a saree as beautifully as Madhuri Dixit. The actress looked every bit elegant in a handloom Paithani silk saree by Madhurya Creations in teal green. The striking colour made a statement with all the intricate details, styled with a long chain necklace and earrings. This one stands out for the flawless drape and, of course, the trending shade.
