Aurelia launches SS’26 collection with Ananya Panday fronting #HameshaTrending campaign
Aurelia, one of India’s most loved women’s ethnic wear brands from the house of Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Limited, strengthens its position as a go-to destination for contemporary Indian wear with the launch of its Spring Summer ’26 collection under the vibrant #HameshaTrending campaign, starring Bollywood actor Ananya Panday. The brand has long been a preferred choice for young, fashion-forward women who want to stay current while remaining rooted in an Indian aesthetic. With #HameshaTrending, Aurelia sharpens this promise, celebrating women who want to feel confident, in-trend and effortlessly stylish every day.
Bringing this spirit to life is Ananya Panday, whose youthful confidence and strong connection with Gen Z and young millennials make her a natural fit for the campaign. The film is a vibrant ode to girl-gang energy, following friends through makeover marathons, office outings, girls’ trips and wedding celebrations. Each moment captures a different mood and style, reflecting how today’s women move seamlessly through life – with fashion that evolves just as naturally. At every turn, Aurelia keeps her on trend and on point.
Ananya Panday said: “I’ve always believed fashion should feel fun, easy, and totally you. I love experimenting with trends, but in a way that still feels comfortable and natural. That’s what I love about Aurelia, it keeps Indian wear fresh and current without making it feel over-the-top. #HameshaTrending is such a vibe because it’s about staying updated and feeling confident every single day. I’m so excited to be part of a brand that celebrates being stylish in your own effortless way.”
Anant Daga, Chief Executive Officer – TCNS Division, Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Limited, added: “Aurelia has consistently resonated with women who want to stay relevant in an ever-evolving fashion landscape. With this sharp positioning, we are reinforcing Aurelia’s role as the go-to destination for the latest trends in Indian wear. The Spring Summer ’26 collection and #HameshaTrending campaign are strategic steps toward strengthening our fashion-forward credentials while continuing to offer accessibility, comfort, and inclusivity at scale. Ananya’s strong connect with young consumers further amplifies this vision and aligns perfectly with the brand’s growth ambitions.”
The Spring Summer ’26 collection brings the freshest trends in Indian wear to the forefront, from updated kurta silhouettes and fluid co-ord sets to playful sleeves, statement necklines, softer pastels, trend-right florals, and easy-breezy fabrics perfect for the season. Designed to move effortlessly from workdays to weekend brunches, festive gatherings to summer soirées, the collection captures what the modern Indian woman seeks: fashion that feels new, relevant, and wearable.
The #HameshaTrending campaign will roll out through a robust 360-degree integrated plan spanning digital, social, across 240+ stores, and high-impact media platforms. The film will be amplified across social media, OTT, and digital video channels, complemented by strategic influencer and creator collaborations to drive fashion-led conversations.
With SS’26, Aurelia makes one thing clear: staying on trend doesn’t have to be intimidating – it can be effortless, inclusive, and rooted in who you are. The Spring Summer ’26 collection is now available across Aurelia stores and online platforms nationwide.
