Sonam Kapoor has never been one to play it safe with fashion. Whether she is making a case for couture on the red carpet or giving traditional Indian wear an unexpected spin, the actor has built a style identity around considered choices, a love for craftsmanship and an instinct for putting pieces together in ways that feel her own. Her Diwali look this year is no exception. Instead of reaching for a heavily embellished lehenga or a predictable festive silhouette, Sonam chose a custom white angrakha by Anavila, layered it with her mother Sunita Kapoor’s jewellery and added a bright pink potli for a touch of colour.
The outfit, designed by Anavila, takes the familiar kurta silhouette in a more contemporary direction. Cut in white fabric, the dress features an overlapping front and a fluid, floor-length fall. A cape in matching fabric, with full sleeves, adds another layer to the ensemble. Delicate pink floral embroidery traces the edges and spreads across the fabric, making it a perfect fall ensemble.
