Inside Ananya Panday’s Italian diaries at Chanel’s Lake Como show

Panday’s looks were a carousel of soft fabrics and feminine cuts. She kickstarted her trip with a butter-yellow textured midi dress, styled with Chanel’s Cruise 2024/25 crochet bag and loafers. Sun-kissed makeup and semi-tousled hair added to the Italian charm. Next, a trusted pair of denim jeans with a white tank top served as staples for a touristy day.

For the show day—Chanel’s Cruise 2025/26 show, she slipped into a black dress also from the Métiers d’Art collection, styled with black sandals from the Cruise 2024/25 collection. Feather pendant earrings and kohl-rimmed eyes added the finishing touches to her ensemble.

“My sister Rysa and I don’t get to see other always since she is in Uni. We try to find time together when either one of us is travelling halfway across the globe to get some quality time in. Rysa dictates my fashion and food choices, unfortunately I have no say in either of those things when we are together,” says Panday.

“I like a little caffeine before I am about to set out for some interviews and social interaction,” says Panday.
