Karisma Kapoor’s beauty, style and fashion is iconic. The actor continues to exude grace and charm in each event she attends. At a recent beauty award show, Karisma Kapoor wore an outfit that can only
be described as regal maximalism. It was a all gold number that would work for the festive season, as an outfit for a wedding guest or if you just want to feel your best.
Karisma Kapoor brought a touch of vintage-inspired glamour to ethnic dressing for the ongoing festive season in a striking gold ensemble by Aikeyah. The straight-off-the-runway outfit made a statement through its rich texture and intricate craftsmanship. The actor stepped out in a coordinated outfit featuring a structured, short-sleeved top and a voluminous, floor-length skirt, both crafted in a lustrous gold fabric adorned with elaborate floral brocade motifs.
The top stood out for its tailored silhouette and distinctive construction. Designed with a high neckline and a fitted shape, it featured an overlapping, asymmetric front that added an interesting dimension to the look. The short sleeves had softly structured, embellished edges, while the fabric was covered in raised floral patterns that lent the outfit depth and an opulent finish. The close-fitting bodice accentuated the waist before flowing into the matching skirt.
The skirt brought movement and volume to the ensemble, with its gathered, flared silhouette creating a dramatic contrast to the structured top. The all-over gold floral detailing continued across the lower half, ensuring a cohesive look from head to toe. Rather than relying on contrasting colours or heavy embellishments, the outfit made an impact through its monochromatic palette and intricate weave across the textured fabric.
Karisma complemented the ensemble with carefully chosen accessories. She carried a small, rounded gold potli-style handbag featuring matching floral detailing and a metallic frame. A layered gold necklace added to the richness of the look, while chunky gold hoop earrings and statement rings completed the accessory choices.
For her beauty look, the actor kept her hair slicked back into a neat bun, allowing the neckline and jewellery to remain in focus. Defined eyes, softly sculpted cheeks and a muted rose-toned lip colour rounded off her makeup.
During a recent interview with Variety India, Karisma Kapoor spoke about her fashion game. The actor has witnessed trends evolve since the 1990s. But she revealed that she does not particularly follow them. The actor shared that there is one beauty trend from the decade that she continues to love. “To be honest, I don’t follow trends. But something I used to do in the ’90s and I love today as well is a dark brown lip,” she added.
While Karisma Kapoor appreciates the influence of fashion trends, her everyday preferences lean towards classic clothing. The actor identified two pieces she can wear regularly. “I’d definitely say it’s classic blue jeans or a simple, white salwar kameez. That is something you can keep wearing all the time,” she said.
Years later, Karisma Kapoor’s fashion choices in films continue to inspire audiences and she feels fortunate that people still recreate her outfits from Dil To Pagal Hai, Raja Hindustani, and Hero No. 1.
“I feel honoured, lucky and grateful that there are so many people out there who recreate my looks today and enjoy wearing those clothes. They love dancing to my songs as well. I am happy that it is continuing. People are still enjoying our efforts from many years ago,” she shared.
