5 Style Takeaways From Sonam Kapoor’s Stylist Rhea Kapoor

1. Add an Ott Element To Meet Fashion Superstardom

Stardom comes to those who are not afraid to take chances. Stalking Sonam’s style files we observe, while styling her muse Rhea always resorts to adding one over the top element that is bound to grab eyeballs. To ensure an appearance that looks distinct and fresh Rhea is always on the lookout for elements that are sure to get fashion followers across the nation talking about her look.

For the Chandon event, Rhea dressed up Sonam in a black jumpsuit from Rosario Atelier. While the jumpsuit enveloped Sonam’s curves to perfection it was the dramatic ruffles both at the front and the back that caught all our attention. Coupled with a plunging neckline this one was a statement one.

2. Fusion Is The Key To Spotlight

Rhea believes in mixing it up. To create looks that are meant for the spotlight, Rhea gives us all the inspiration to fuse old with new, desi with videsi, traditional with contemporary chic. This ace stylist gives us all new inspiration each time the diva steps out, ensuring no look appears repetitive and styled up to reflect both the Indian roots and the upbeat fashionable vibe at the same time.

Attending the wedding of her brother most recently in Abu Dhabi Sonam Kapoor gave us all new goals for playing dress up this wedding season. Donning an indo western look from the house of Anamika Khanna, Sonam Kapoor looked every bit gorgeous. Ditching the usual ethnic wear, the ensemble combined a contemporary gown with a long trail that gave us all the saree feels.

For a photoshoot for Kalyan Jewellers, Rhea Kapoor styled up her muse in summer pastels to complement the gorgeous sets jewellery sets from the brand. We heart Rheas pick from the house of Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla, that amped up an ordinary saree with a heavy dose of fringes. The fringed blouse added all the contemporary chic to the pastel six yards, taking the look to all new highs.

Sonam redefined the fusion ball game wearing it the Masaba way. All credits to Rhea Kapoor, for opting to dress Sonam in this pale blue pants crop top and dupatta ensemble, which got Sonam buzzing for her statement appearance.

For the Star Screen Awards this year, Sonam revived the monochrome fervour on the red carpet wearing a voluminous black and white ball gown. Rhea kept the look minimalistic styling it up with a pair of solitaires and a neat sleek bun, letting the gown do all the talking.

4. Layerings Are The Tool To Make Street Style Look Hi-Street Fashion

With layerings trending high, Rhea used cover ups as a weapon to style up Sonam’s basic street style and most of her statement airport looks. Last year we saw Sonam revving up her casual style files with oversized layerings. Well we have to admit she got the entire Bollywood tuned into flaunting long layerings.

At the Chandon India, Rhea Kapoor gave us major metallic goals, draping Sonam in flared golden metallic pants and long layerings from Deme By Gabrielle. Rhea further styled up this gold and glamorous look with jewelry pieces from Dhora and Isharya. The messy hair updo further amped up the grunge factor rendering Sonam a smoking hot look.

To take Sonam’s simple Payal Pratap white midi dress a notch higher, Rhea surprised us with a long denim layering from Bhane Love. Restoring a bit of Indianness to the look, Rhea completed this one with silver jewellery accents.

5. Contrast Footwear Can Work Wonders If Done Right

Someone rightly said, give a woman the right shows and she can conquer the world. Footwears and bags are like the weakness of the Kapoor sisters. Rhea often plays up with contrasting footwears to elevate the high end fashion element in Sonam’s appearances.

At the Raees screening earlier this year, Rhea covered Sonam head to toe in Gucci. We were all hearts for the floral midi, that looked so spring summer. But what stole the show was that pair of pastel blue peeps. The cherry on the top, worked like that icing on the cake as far as this appearance was concerned.
