One of Bollywood’s most famous fashionistas, Sonam Kapoor’s style ethos is editorial at best and experimental at worst. The Khobsurat actor, who is the first Indian to be appointed as a brand ambassador for French haute couture giant Christian Dior, is a huge inspiration to fashion lovers and stylists. In a recent social media post, Kapoor shared a lookbook of her favorite neutral ensembles. An all-black outfit, blue hues, polka dots, and the right choice of accessories elevate her look.
“Neutral: When you want to look good without even trying (or at least pretending you’re not). 😜,” she wrote in the caption of an Instagram post.
Celebrity stylist Janhvi Paricha says neutrals are the epitome of timeless style. “Sonam Kapoor captures the power of subtlety by pairing a structured blazer with a soft knit polo neck and sleek straight-leg trousers. This combination combines sharp tailoring with cozy texture. Balanced, creating an elegant yet comfortable look.
Here’s another way to look at it.
She adds that monochromatic layering is a fail-safe way to elevate a neutral look. Keeping her jewelery and makeup bold, Sonam adds striking contrast while layering different tones seamlessly to let textures and silhouettes shine.
Playing with different shades of neutral colors adds depth and dimension. Paricha said Sonam effortlessly mixed shades of blue, incorporated subtle stripes and finished off her look with a crisp pop of white and a multi-colored bag.
A chic polka dot dress adds more visual interest without overwhelming the outfit. Add a hair bow and bold earrings to complete the ensemble with a playful yet sophisticated touch.
She added that throughout, accessories play a key role in enhancing the simplicity of the neutral palette and adding personality and flair to each outfit. “Whether it’s a casual outing or a formal event, Sonam Kapoor proves that neutral outfits offer endless styling possibilities while remaining classic and sophisticated.” Stylist said.
