Golden girl of style

Kareena Kapoor walked the ramp at a fashion event in a 30kg dress

-

Kareena Kapoor Khan shimmered in a heavily embellishe­d 30kg golden ensemble at a gala at India Couture Week in New Delhi.

The Bollywood actress, who was dressed in a Falguni and Shane Peacock lehenga (skirt) at the gala, said she felt “glamorous” and “beautiful” in the ensemble, which had a Parisian touch to the design.

“I guess I am just a born actress, and not a born model. So when all the models were walking in front of me, apart from the fact that they are so tall and gorgeous, I realised that it’s so tough and I was so nervous,” Kapoor Khan stated at the event.

The Veerey Di Wedding actress stepped on the ramp with poise despite the weight of the lehenga, keeping her jewellery minimalist­ic, with just earrings, and letting the bespoke outfit with a Parisian vibe grab the limelight.

“I have walked the ramp for nearly a decade and more, but probably this is the first time I am wearing an outfit that weighs 30kg. But if it wasn’t for Falguni and Shane Peacock, I wouldn’t have done it for anyone else,” she further stated.

“It’s making me feel glamorous... But I know it’s really really tough when you wear these heavy outfits throughout. But I am looking beautiful.”

On the work front, the actress will be reuniting with Akshay Kumar for a yet untitled film that will be produced by her close friend, Karan Johar.
