Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh are the couple of the moment.

On November 14, they tied the knot at the Villa del Balbianello, which overlooks Lake Como in Italy amid tight security.

The couple have forbidden family, friends and guests who have attended the wedding from sharing pictures from the wedding.

But everyone’s really excited to see how the duo looked on their big day.

As we await the couple to share their wedding moments, we realised how Deepika had subtly dropped hints about being a Sabyasachi bride.

In a chat show hosted by Neha Dhupia, the Padmaavat actor was asked to pick a designer for her wedding trosseau. And Dips picked Sabyasachi Mukherjee over Manish Malhotra.

The admiration is mutual.

When asked which couple he’d like to dress up on their wedding, Sabyasachi had picked DeepVeer.

‘I think they would make such a great couple,’ he told The Indian Express.

Guess what? In 2015 too, the designer had expressed his desire to dress up Deepika and Ranveer on their big day.

‘Deepika would make a perfect Sabyasachi bride because she has a striking Indian face, a wonderful Indian body and wears a lot of my traditional Indian clothes beautifully,’ the designer told PTI at Vogue BFF event three years ago, where he had unveiled his wedding collection.

‘What I like about her is that she is not someone who only likes to wear polyester, net or clingy clothes. She can also wear a Kanjivaram or Banarasi and still look good,’ Mukherjee said at the event.

‘I like the fact that Deepika brings out a lot of cultural context in her clothing. She sometimes wear fabrics like Matka which other actresses won’t even wear and I find that fascinating,’

At the same event, the designer also revealed why he’d love to design clothes for Ranveer Singh. ‘Because I just love him. He is so easy about whatever he likes to do and that’s very charming about him,’ the designer who’s also dressed up celebrity couples like Virat and Anushka said.
