From Sonam K Ahuja to Kangana Ranaut, actresses embrace the vintage style with an au courant twist...
Our diet may have become dairy-free, but our closet is slowly warming up to a dairy-focussed style. From puff-sleeved blouses to prairie-style dresses, Instagram is flooded with the farmworker-inspired number. The likes of Isabel Marant and Victoria Beckham have made the classic extremely wearable, which helps you make that seamless transition from the boardroom to the bar. In Bollywood, actresses like Sonam K Ahuja and Kangana Ranaut have fallen for its allure. While Mrs Ahuja opted for a puff-sleeved number as she promoted Veere Di Wedding, Kangana was seen in a collared gingham check print style. We ask experts on how to rock this old-world-inspired closet essential...
FABULOUS OFF-DUTY
Fall Winter 2018 collections see a litany of field hand style numbers, which work well with athleisure essentials. Designer Nishka Lulla says, “It’s wearable and feminine and one can team it up with a pair of pumps. For a cool off-duty look, pair it with sneakers. The puff or leg-of-mutton sleeves details look interesting and it’s a great take on the vintage style.”
DRESS UP OR DOWN
Depending on the colour and the fabric, this piece can be worn for both day as well as night outings. Azmina Rahimtoola, store owner Atosa says, “If the dress is in a soft fabric like flowy silk, it could be taken from day to night. If it’s in cotton then it works for lunches and sundowners. I like the pleated style seen at Jil Sander as it’s neither boho nor figure-hugging. All in all — it’s simple, fun and wearable. I also like designer Gabriela Hearst’s minimal take on it.”
POETIC WHIMSY
The play of innocence in the form of ruffles and other such feminine details are timeless and add an element of grace to a regular wardrobe. Designer Aniket Satam says, “This Resort 2019, the quintessential white milkmaid dress comes with poet sleeves along with a bit of delicate floral sprays. One could easily team this feather-light, almost sheer dress with a pair of skinny jeans for an instant upgrade.”
