During the lockdown, we discovered two things: one, some fantastic handmade face masks, and two, Kareena Kapoor Khan’s affinity for breezy kaftans. Even after that, the celebrity couldn’t get enough of the loose silhouette, as she wore a kaftan to celebrate her birthday, then sunbathed in a stylish gingham number, and later in a Masaba creation. Despite her mother’s taunting and husband Saif Ali Khan’s complaints, the actress told Vogue in 2013 that her favorite clothing when she’s alone is a Fabindia cotton kaftan. “I just love how comfortable they are,” she explained. Malaika Arora, Kapoor Khan’s pal, even swapped her exercise clothes for kaftans at home. Here are three of her most eye-catching choices thus far.
Radiant Yellow Kaftan
Kareena Kapoor Khan can pull off an off-duty look just as well as she can an over-the-top red carpet ensemble. While at home with husband Saif Ali Khan and son Taimur Ali Khan, the actress is embracing her love for easygoing ensembles and has been sporting some must-see off-duty looks. Designer Masaba Gupta tweeted a video of the Veere Di Wedding star twirling in her Mumbai home over the weekend, clad in a vivid yellow kaftan from Gupta’s current collection.
Mint Green Kaftan
The birthday girl chose a kaftan for her big day, which has been one of her go-to silhouettes throughout the pandemic. Kapoor Khan wore a green Anita Dongre kaftan this time, after wearing a yellow printed Masaba number previously. Kareena Kapoor Khan wore a minty green kaftan with dazzling red flowers and a printed forest-green hemline from Anita Dongre’s ready-to-wear brand. It felt like the perfect choice with its light fabric, balloon sleeves, and Henley neckline with a tasseled front.
Gingham Print Kaftan
For anyone who likes to lounge at home in airy, roomy silhouettes, a kaftan is a weekend must-have. In her photo, the stunning Bollywood actress can be seen relaxing by the pool in a gingham kaftan with bright red edges, which she paired with nothing but her diamond engagement ring. The actor captioned her sun-kissed image, which also highlighted her unmistakable pre-baby glow, “5 months and going strong.”
