BEHIND CLOSET DOORS SANAKHAAN

High heels, exorbitant bags and a wardrobe full of winter clothes in Mumbai. Actor Sana Khaan’s closet promises to give you extreme high fashion goals

- Arundhati Chatterjee ■ 48hours@hindustant­imes.com

We have seen actor Sana Khaan ace the “sanskari bahu” act in TV soaps. Last month, she played quite the opposite in the film, Wajah Tum Ho. Much like the characters she plays, her wardrobe displays a mishmash of Indian and western influences. She loves to hoard winter clothes and hopes to temporaril­y shift to a colder place since Mumbai doesn’t let her wear them. She also calls herself a perfume-maker, and we find out why as she gives us a walk-through of her closet.

WARDROBE STAPLES

“Ripped jeans, T-shirts, leggings, all sorts of jackets, and lots ofstoles.”

THE GOLDEN TOUCH

“I love accessorie­s, and I mostly buy gold. I hate junk jewellery — especially ones with chunky pendants and beads.”

HIGH HEELS CONFIDENTI­AL

“I am obsessed with heels, mostly stilettos. The higher the better. On a regular day, you’ll see me in 5-inch heels. The Fendi long boots in my wardrobe are worth 2lakh. I bought them from Marina Mall in Dubai.”

IMPULSE MODE

“I am impulsive when it comes to make-up and skincare products. But the most expensive thing in my wardrobe is a limited-edition Prada bag worth 6 lakh. I don’t know why I got carried away, but that’s how impulsive I am.”

SCENT OF A WOMAN

“I buy all my perfumes from airports. But I never wear one perfume at a time; it’s always a mixed concoction. I also love Arabian fragrances. Every year, I go for a holy pilgrimage during Ramzan. I pick up a lot of local fragrances from Riyadh and Kuwait.”

BRAND VALUE

“I buy my regular clothes from Zara, Bebe and Banana Republic. My favourite designers are Bhumika Sharma and Dimple & Amrin.”

WINTER WONDERLAND

“I love warm clothes — coats, jackets, layers. I know Mumbai has no winter, but I keep buying warm clothes for when I will visit a place that will actually have winter.”
